Amsterdam: Guided City Walking Tour and Rembrandt House – Amsterdam, Netherlands

EXPERIENCE

Start your tour with a walk through Spiegelquarter, a district known for a wide array of antiques and artistic goods. Afterwards, wander the Keizersgracht, or Emperor s canal, where your guide will discuss one of Rembrandt s most successful apprentices.

In Rembrandt Square, hear about the Night Watch Guards, who were characters in one of the artist s most popular works. His painting is recreated here in bronze sculpture. In Staalstraat, learn about the local Drapers Guild, represented by Rembrandt.

Finally, in Waterloo Square, discover the former Jewish Quarter, home to a variety of immigrants including Rembrandt and his wife. The couple spent many years living here, near the Amstel River, where their house still stands as a museum dedicated to the artist s life. It includes etchings and other works done by Rembrandt himself. The furnishings are authentic to the 1600s, reconstituted thanks to auction archives from the period. Expore Rembrandt s office and see how he produced his work, peeking at the more intimate side of the artist s life.
