Semi Private Combo Van Gogh Museum and Red Light District Guided Tour
Vincent Van Gogh was not shy about indulging in a few dark pleasures, and after this tour, you will understand why. We will trace some of those vices in an engaging and hopefully dignified manner on this 5 hour, semi private tour. Skip the line with our guides who will provide tickets that are valid for the whole day. We designed this tour for first time visitors to learn about the relationship between the artist and Amsterdam's iconic Red Light District, a relationship that resulted in Van Gogh painting a few scandalous works of art.
Itinerary
You have probably heard about one of the world’s most famous painters, Vincent Van Gogh. But what do you actually know about this Dutch artist? We will introduce you to the man behind the famous sunflowers and self portraits on this intimate, small group tour. Learn about him through his iconic paintings of people eating potatoes and of his own bedroom, or maybe his wheatfield with Crows or Yellow House. We will visit the world’s largest collection of Van Gogh’s works to learn about his turbulent life stretching from his days in Holland to his dramatic ending in France. And yes, don’t worry, we will discuss that whole ear incident. Then after a break for lunch, we will keep it as dignified and serious as possible as we discuss the legal drug vendors, the leather neighbourhood, and the smoky coffee shops that attract people from around the world. Cast away your guilt and judgement, and let’s discuss the etiquette and laws that will allow you to appreciate this district to its fullest after the tour. Our professional guides will lead you through the salacious streets and coffee shops of the Red Light District, following in the footsteps of Van Gogh himself.
