Overview of your Amsterdam tour

Don't just follow any guide! Have your own private art historian and share your love for Vincent van Gogh! Vincent van Gogh lived in Nuenen from December 1883 until November 1885. He produced a quarter of all his works here. Van Gogh was interested in the weavers and peasants who lived here and he also went out to make drawings and paintings of the surroundings. He made his first masterpiece here; the Potato Eaters. Nuenen is an outdoor museum with many buildings and locations that have a direct link with Van Gogh's work and stay, for example the house where he lived with his parents, the church where his father stood, the factory where he could store his paintings and two of the water mills that he painted just outside the village. This tour can be combined with Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam (best collection in the world), Kroller Muller Museum in Otterlo (second best collection in the world) or Noordbrabant Museum in Den Bosch (home of Jheronimus Bosch), Zundert and Etten. Private transportation included.
