A quintessential museum guide that re-introduces Art and Vincent, in a non-formal but engaging way!
Overview of your Amsterdam tour
Join me for an exclusive, private tour of the Vincent Van Gogh Museum; home to one of the world's most impressive collections of works by this master of post-impressionism. As an artist myself, I am passionate about Van Gogh's use of vivid colors and expressive brush strokes to evoke deep emotions. Living in Amsterdam allows me to share this passion with you and provide unique insights into his works. No boring commentary here! Its a fun and engaging introduction, meeting Vincent the Mastermind and his legacy into today's art, in a non complicated way! *Please note that a later visit avoids the crowds, thats why there is no morning times. Please request in advance alternative times. Welcome to My Amsterdam!

Bradley T.United States
Dina is very passionate about art and extremely knowledgeable about Van Gogh. She tells the story of his art career from the perspective of his life history. Not just what is in the painting, but what it expresses from the twists and turns of his life. It was wonderful!
Garth R.United States
This was a great tour. Dina handled all the details and was very responsive, flexible, informative, and fun. We saw wonderful artwork and learned so much about the art, artists, and context. She gave us a perfect highlights tour that included what we wanted to see and didn’t get bogged down seeing stuff we didn’t want to see. Everything was easy, enjoyable, informative, and fun. We’d definitely contact her again if we return!
Mary Frances M.United States
In depth discussion of what motivated Van Gogh and what he was trying to accomplish in each period of his very short career. This is definitely THE tour for art lovers who truly want to learn and to appreciate the art work. Not at all the standard museum tour. Dina is extremely knowledgeable and eager to share her love for the artist’s work.
Anna S.United States
