Description
The stars of Amsterdam
With this combi ticket you’ll get to meet all the stars of Amsterdam. From global and local celebrities to the iconic sights of the city. A visit to Madame Tussauds and a cruise on the canals of Amsterdam, you are assured of a great day.
The icons of Madame Tussauds Amsterdam
At Madame Tussauds Amsterdam both local and global celebrities await you (in wax). The Dutch King, Queen and Crown Princess stand ready, and so do famous painters like Rembrandt and Van Gogh. Dutch world champions are also ready for their close up photo with you, like Johan Cruijff, Jutta Leerdam, Virgil van Dijk and Rico Verhoeven.
But there are many international stars as well. From musicians like Rihanna, Harry Styles and Beyonce to film stars as Leonardo Dicaprio, Zendaya and Jennifer Aniston. The little ones and those young at heart will have a chance to pose with Shrek, E.T., Iron Man, and all the other Avengers.
The sights along the Amsterdam canals
The celebrities might all be inside, the city of Amsterdam offers plenty of amazing sights to see along its canals. The famous canal houses with their many different gables, the bridges that connect the different parts of the city, and a great many churches are all part of the UNESCO World Heritage listed canal belt. And you can see it all on our most popular canal cruise in Amsterdam.
The boat will take you through famous canals such as the Herengracht, Prinsengracht and Keizersgracht. Along the way you can listen to our audio guide to discover more about the city. One hour aboard a boat will show you the city in a way unlike any other.

It was great and I saw many of famous wax people, an absolutely great place to go if you’ve got free time and some spare cash to use in Amsterdam.
I recently visited Madame Tussauds in Amsterdam with my daughter and her friend. Her friend absolutely loved it — she rated the experience 5 out of 5. For us, it was just good, but not amazing. There are definitely some wax figures that look very much like the originals — quite impressive. But there are also a few that don’t really capture the likeness as well. The museum overall is well-organized and clean, but it felt like it was missing a bit of entertainment or interactive elements to make the experience more engaging. In short, it’s a nice place to visit, especially if you’re into celebrity figures and photo ops, but I wouldn’t call it excellent. Still worth checking out if you’ve never been.
An amazing experience. And the staff made me a beautiful day with their energy. They help us, and very friendly. Thank you 😊
I liked so much. I was surprised that all figures are so realistic. And it was good expiriance :) I will visit some other for sure in the future 😄
Fun time! The sculptures are very impressive, they really look like living people. The museum is convenient for visiting at any age
My husband and I had an amazing time even though we are over 50 years old. The collection is fantastic as always. I have been to Amsterdam 3 times and every time I come I just have to visit Madame Tussauds and every time it is an exceptional experience. Thank you!
In other museums there are many more items Nice place with relatively high ticket price. Recommend to add some introductions near each
Great place to visit. There are few floors but there is a lift as well as stairs. Exhibits are really life like. You can interact with some
EXCELLENT customer service!!! Thank You very much!!! :) Everyone was very helpful. We enjoyed everything. We didn't see Elvis or Mahammad Ali.
Was very nice . A lot of celebrities there. Nice staff,and very polite. I would recommend to everyone It is very busy during the weekend.
We weren’t planning on coming here however me and my partner had never been to one before and I’m glad we came. We had such a laugh and the wax works are marvellous. We thought so many of them were real people when we walked into the rooms. The tickets are quite expensive however we took our time to go round as there isn’t a time limit. We got our money worth. There are so many interactive games and activities you can do as you go round that make the experience too. As well as a photo shoot before you go in. I wouldn’t return again as I’ve already done it but I had a brilliant time and would definitely recommend it to anyone who is going to Amsterdam.
Very entertaining, and worth the experience. Gives vacationers something to see and to do. Go early when there is limited crowds.
Had a great visit there was a good few celebrities to get a photo with some of them are very lifelike those two taking the selfies at the door is very good
We had a lot of fun, it’s well done and organized. Celebrities look like real. Suggested! Too expensive the cost to get video and photo, overmore not printed.
Loads of fun. Very interactive and like this better than nyc option. Me and my family will return. Takes about 1 hour or so to go through everything.
Great time !The best memories with big pleasure I will be back again !To advice buy ticket early on the website.I wish nice time
Well worth the visit & a fun wander around taking lots of photos You get to scan your QR code on the way round and a chance to purchase them at the end of your visit
Amazing museum. Very very funny. You can take amazing pictures and you can have lot's of fun. There are lots of interactive scenarios. Don't miss it.
Decent Madame Tussaud’s. Doesn’t take long to get around but fun and well laid out. The big window is definitely worth seeing as it gives an amazing view of the town below. Loved seeing all the waxworks of local Dutch celebrities, that’s always one of my favourite things about visiting Madame Tussaud’s around the world. Definitely recommend a visit.
It is Perfect and unbelievable. You can see a lot of people from the world. You can increase your world knowledge. The staff is very kind and helpful.
We take much photos and see a lot of things thanks for this , we will see you next time maybe next year in the summer bye bye..
Cool but too quick. What about Arni Schwarzneger? Few Figures. I hoped it would be more. Place around is very beautiful.
Marvelous dreamy experience to visit another version of the Madam Tussauds museum in the heart of Amsterdam. Located just around the corner of the beautiful Dam Square in walking distance to the Amsterdam Central train station. Friendly staff with welcoming smiles. 😊
We were welcomed like a King and Queen and got a VIP treatment, because my husband had some difficulty walking. Very sympathic young people who were guiding us and we had lots of fun with them. The wax figures looked very realistic and their eyes were following you. We had a very nice time at Madame Tussauds in Amsterdam! Recommended!
Very interesting. But very crowded. At our time one school had also visit time, They used to be very crowded and all of a sudden rush to one part and it made the visit very difficult. Maybe the museum could set special hours for such visits. Another negative point is, there isn’t any lock box to put clothes and things. In cold weather and for tourists who mostly have big bags, jackets and bags should be carried during the visit
Had an awesome trip thru. Loved every moment. We have been to madam Tussaud's in USA many years ago. I had forgotten what a blast it is
Amazing experience. Nice to see Johan Cruyff and Bob Marley. Maybe I am a little to old to know all the music and film stars. But fun to meet them there.
We thoroughly enjoyed our day here, plenty of things to see and lots of interactive points too. All the staff were great and knowledgeable. We went as a couple but would highly recommend it for families
This was very nice, and the person who took pictures of us to put in the glass cube was very nice, she is fro Australia. This was amazing
We had a great time with our kids. Wish that all of the figures had labels (some were missing and we weren’t sure who everyone was. Also, the Van Gogh section for photos was broken and we were disappointed we didn’t get to take those images since we did buy the digital download package.
Amazing. An unforgettable experience. We took so many funny photos. A great way to spend time with family. It is the best to buy tickets online.
We had so much fun, my first time at a Madame Tussaud’s. One of the highlights of our Amsterdam trip! Took so many photos and videos! Especially with Harry Styles!
We had a great time here as a family with 3 teenagers, we all had great fun. It was definitely the highlight of my 13 year olds visit to Amsterdam. Would definitely recommend it
We had never been to a Madame Tussauds before, but were pleasantly surprised. My Mum was reluctant to go in thinking there were probably better things to do in Amsterdam, but she was soon into it interacting with the wax models. Definitely fun and a great thing to do. Pretty life like figures and some fun ones to interact with.
I did not expect it to be as special and I had a great time! You get to see many celebrities and the most important singers of the moment. It was a great experience!
This was a very good experience. Although is not as big as the one in London, we thought that the museum was very nicely put together with it's themed rooms and interactive activities. The new figures are fantastically done.
It was amazing, the figures are incredible and i had such a fun time here qith my friend in amsterdam, i recomend it a loooot😍
It is pefect 🫶🎶.Catwalk Topmodels on Tour 🔥Hi Barbie 🫶🎶Famous 🫶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶I love it .More please 🫶🫶🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Absolutely amazing experience, value for money! I would recommend to everyone to visit here whilst you are in Amsterdam!! Also, the Amsterdam museum was great for its price, although for me it was too scary 🤣🙈
Great experience. Everything looks so realistic. The whole family was delighted. Definitely the best museum for us so far. ;)
It was amazing to see so many stars 🤩 But alter all, It was a bit expensive! The quality/quantity rating is a bit overrated.. we were done in 1,5 hours..
It’s my mission to visit every Madame Tussaud’s on the planet and this was a very good one! Some figure are old and slightly out of date and some are brand new and excellently crafted. It’s always interesting to see which ‘areas’ each museum has and this one was excellent. Lots of immersive activities as well scattered around which you don’t always see. Very reasonably priced I thought at about €25 each. We went late afternoon on a weekday and it wasn’t busy at all. Would recommend.
Very good Excellent show. I will bring my family and I am going to invite more friends and relatives. I am going back again
Extraordinary, the best Wax Museum I've done so far. They put so many efforts in including stars in immersive ambient scenes with light and music. I've got the thrills !
Cool place worth a visit we managed to spend a nice time we have taken some photos we will have something to remember I recommend
Excellent experience, totally recomended. The fashion show, with visitors wearing costumes, was amazing. Everything was interactive over there.
Great experience. Bit crowded but not overly so (had some time between groups allowed in). Worth every penny. Visited on monday about 14:00
It was a great experience .Very much worth the money .We enjoyed sightseeing the wax museum and the little photo captures in between.
Great for kids and parents too. Cool pics for making memories. Price ist ok. We spent more than an hour. And bought some souvenirs.
Funny and welcoming. The statues were amazing and the offered activities were interesting and fun. I strongly reccomend it
The canal cruise was perfect, the captin come guide gave us headphones to listen in our own language. The riverboat was clean and tidy, easy to walk on and off, it was a nice day and we got some beautiful pictures!! A great end to a fantastic tourist holiday!!
We did the early evening cruise to see the lights of the city. Easy to get tickets by turning up and allocated the next cruise. There is an audio link that you can use, but we decided to just sit outside and watch the views. An hour cruise which was interesting and pretty.
We had an hour cruise around the canals in Amsterdam and learnt a lot whilst doing it. We really enjoyed every second. My five year old didn’t want to get off. The captain was also very knowledgeable.
This is a must do on your list of things to do while visiting Amsterdam. It takes you through areas that you may not be able to walk to. The captain points out things of interest and tells the story behind it.
We had a really lovely time on the one-hour canal cruise. Our captain was very lovely and cracked a good few jokes throughout the tour. The GPS guided tour via the headphones was a fab idea and there were so many language options available which was a really pleasant surprise. We learned so much about the history of the city and the tour even helped us to find places to visit again in further detail after the tour. The price was extremely reasonable considering the excellent experience we got, and our boat even left a little early which was nice. All in all, we would definitely recommend it!
We really enjoyed it. We show I I amsterdam cards at the ticket office ans were on a boat and on our way within 10 minutes. Our captain (Tony I believe was his name) was lovely ,cheerful and very knowledge of the area, he also had 2 traniees with him and they were also lovely. The facilties were clean. If I hadn't have had the I amsterdam card I would have still paid what the price was (which I think is reasonable).
1st time in Amsterdam and loved it Booked on the Lovers Canal cruise early in the morning to get a feel for the city and to get our bearings The tour showed the highlights of the city and the comentry was good
sitting backward is really annoying... Except that I think it is very nice and the captain was a nice guy, he was really funny, making jokes.
Booked through Get Your Guide literally 20 mins before boarding. They let us join a boat that was boarding as soon as we got there, which was great, no standing around as they weren’t so busy. We took a daytime trip and glad we did. Maybe evening cruises would be better in warmer months with open boats. The boat was modern, clean and warm and no condensation at all during any part of our cruise. The headphones were included and the audio commentary was interesting. The captain also added bits and pieces of extra info which was appreciated. It was a great introduction to the canals of Amsterdam as we decided to do this trip literally an hour after arriving in Amsterdam. It helped us with our bearings and with general historical info about the city. The reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is that we seemed to stay on one canal, no museums seen, no Anne Frank house, nothing like that, which was a shame as lots of tourists probably visit these places afterwards. Maybe the canal boat starting from the museums area take that route? We took the one from the station. There are lots of canal boat companies, but we were more than happy with Lovers as their boats appear a lot more modern than many others we saw. I would definitely recommend the cruise and my teenage daughter said it was one of the nicest things we did when in Amsterdam.
A amazing tour with some great canal boat skills performed and a great host. This tour is very much for couples and being alone I felt a little out of place.
Done the open boat tour during the summer. A great way to see the city and the audio guide gave plenty of information along the way. Extremely relaxing to the point I almost fell asleep half way around. Would definitely do the tour again if I’m back in Amsterdam
Guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Although it rained, I still enjoyed the tour. The only complaint was the audio was difficult to hear at times.
Nice relaxing hour around the canals. Duco (sorry if I have not got the name correct) was informative with history and fun facts. Would recommend.
It was educational, slowed down at the right places. The pilot was polite and explained well- was fun and energetic.
El tour está muy bien, en cambio si ya has hecho un freetour por la ciudad recomiendo el crucero primero, te da una vista más general, mi amiga y yo al haber hecho antes el freetour volvimos a ver sitios en los que ya habíamos estado.
Croisière avec le groupe lovers Sympathique croisière traduit en plusieurs langue 1h pour vous faire un tour des canaux avec visite guidée et indication sur les différents quartiers/monuments / place/ marché /histoire / musée de la ville etc Très bien pour découvrir une 1er fois en famille en amies en couple cette croisière et très bien adapter
Petite balade bien sympathique, est l’audio était très bien fait rien à redire. Le petit bar pour attendre est très sympa aussi avant d’accéder au bateau.
Wir hatten einen super symphatischen Bootsführer der viele Nebeninfos gab. War schön und informativ. 1 Stunde hat gut gereicht und empfehlenswert. Gute Karte erhalten für den Treffpunkt und pünktlich, sowie sauber.
Muy puntuales, un paseo tranquilo, recomiendo que cuando lo cojan miren bien la metereología, pues así podrán disfrutar mejor de las vistas.
Giro dei canali in barca assolutamente da consigliare. Audioguida in italiano e Simon simpaticissimo conducente che comunque dava ulteriori informazioni in inglese. La durata è di un'ora ma ci è dispiaciuto scendere!!
Die Stunde waren zwar nur ca. 50 Minuten, aber die Tour war wunderschön. Unbedingt abends machen, die Atmosphäre ist unbeschreiblich!
Sehr nette Bootstour über die Kanäle von Amsterdam! Man bekommt viele interessante Informationen über die Stadt und deren Geschichte erzählt.
La promenade sur les canaux dure une heure. Les audio guides permettent de suivre les commentaires dans différentes langues. Le long de cette promenade fluviale, nous découvrons l'histoire de la ville et des monuments "célèbres". Par contre, le confort est rudimentaire.
Las vistas son preciosas, aunque desde posición incómoda porque el barco estaba muy lleno. El capitán muy simpático e hizo agradable el viaje.
Crociera molto carina con guida in tutte le lingue. Partenza vicino ala stazione centrale. Durata circa un ora. Visita dei canali principali di Amsterdam. Da provare
