Moving experience - Really excellent tour from Fleur van Heek. She helped bring the exhibits to life and I was very moved by the devotion to restoring The Night Watch by Rembrandt including that we could see the conservators in situ whilst we viewed the art. I had a beautiful emotional tearful moment at that. Thanks Fleur van Heek for your guiding and the time and attention you gave to us and the exhibits. Andrew

December 2025 - Fleur provided a really excellent tour for us. She provided a lot of nice background on the Night Watch painting and its ongoing restoration. The information she provided about the other paintings and artifacts in the museum and the museum itself were really interesting.

Excellent Tour - Highly Recommended Tour and Guide - We very much enjoyed all aspects of the tour. Monique was very knowledgeable, very passionate, and very gracious. She helped us see some of the highlights of the museum in about 2.5 hours in a way we could never have done ourselves.

Helped us make good use of our time! - Fleur was wonderful! She provided a great overview and historical context. And was happy to provide guidance on our individual questions and interests. The Rjiksmuseum has so much to offer that it would be easy to get overwhelmed. I am so glad that Fleur was there to help us understand the museum and strategize our time there!

Great time - Excellent, knowledgeable guide, struck a good balance between telling us enough without overdoing it. For casual visitors like me, 2 hours is plenty.
