Begin your day at the Kröller-Müller Museum, located within the beautiful Hoge Veluwe National Park.
The museum is internationally renowned for its outstanding collection of works by Vincent van Gogh, holding the second-largest Van Gogh collection in the world. In addition to paintings and drawings, the museum features an extensive sculpture garden, where modern and contemporary works are displayed within the natural landscape.
For a limited time, the Kröller-Müller Museum is bringing together all 88 of its Van Gogh paintings in one extraordinary exhibition, All Our Paintings. This is a rare opportunity to see the museum’s entire Van Gogh painting collection displayed together, making an already remarkable visit even more special. The exhibition runs from 15th September 2026 to 3rd January 2027 and is included in this tour. Read more about the exhibition in our All Our Paintings, Kröller-Müller blog.
After visiting the museum, continue to Utrecht, one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands and a long-standing cultural and religious centre of the country. Its historic centre is shaped by medieval streets, unique sunken canals, and centuries of architectural history.
A highlight of the city is the Dom Church and its famous tower, the highest church tower in the Netherlands. It has dominated Utrecht’s skyline since the 14th century and remains one of the most recognisable landmarks in the country.
The city is also closely associated with Dick Bruna, the creator of Miffy, known locally as Nijntje, and is home to several renowned museums and cultural institutions. During your visit, you’ll explore key areas of the historic centre while learning about Utrecht’s role in Dutch history, religion, and daily life.
Travelling between the Hoge Veluwe and Utrecht offers views of varied Dutch countryside, with forests, open landscapes, and quieter rural areas. This part of the journey highlights another side of the Netherlands beyond its cities, rounding out the experience of the day.

Yes. As a private tour, we shape the day around what you enjoy most, whether that is art, history or the natural setting of the Veluwe.
Yes. Every tour we run is private, so it can be built around limited mobility rather than squeezed into it. Tell us what you need when you book and we will plan the route, the pace and the stops around it: the car closer to each stop, shorter walking stretches, seated breaks, and step-free alternatives where they exist. Wheelchairs, walkers and prams are all fine. Where a particular site is genuinely not accessible we will say so before you book rather than let you find out on the day.
