A must go for those who want to learn about who this Anne Frank is. I went there knowing nothing and came out knowing that the life back there was not as simple yet hard knowing that your life in someone's hand. Tips: - Buy the ticket from their homepage to avoid the long queue. - They have free toilets... more

If you read the book at school and thought how boring, later in life you change your view. Brought the times and the book to life. Sad yet inspiring. very well laid out. You can almost feel the tension that was there all those years ago. Very busy place. we went late afternoon and there were not many people waiting.... more

and I don't say that very often. Very moving and worth seeing. Made me go back and read the diary again for the first time in years. Loved the way the house has been displayed, great video use etc and really quite enjoyed the interactive voting room too. If you go to Amsterdam you shouldn't miss this. more

We learned driving in Amsterdam is not a good idea...but we found a parking place just around the corner from the Anne Frank House. The line was long, but we were there on a Sunday morning, and enjoyed being outside on a beautiful morning talking with the people in line with usand sharing travel stories. I have bad knees and... more

If you are in Amsterdam and know the story of Anne Frank, you really should go here. Yes...you will be in a line of people but it will amaze you to see how small the rooms are that these people lived in for so long. I would recommend prepurchasing your tickets so that you can get in that line. When... more

I visited the Anne Frank House in October of 2008 and I'll say I was disappointed but to be honest I hyped it up for myself too much. This was my second time to Amsterdam and I thought seeing the Anne Frank house would be an excellent way to see the history. Admission is Euro 7.50 and to be honest... more

Like many historical sites, without an imagination, you can't get the full effect. If you didn't know any better, you are merely in an old office building and apartment. But of course, we all know the story of Anne Frank, and that's what made this building so moving. You can imagine the Frank's hiding out ... the walls, the sink... more

As reviewers before have mentioned, go during off-peak hours (I was actually there around 3:30 pm) and you'll have no problems getting in or navigating around the museum. Also, if there is a slight line outside the museum, don't worry, there aren't too many people, it just takes a while for the one guy that was working the tickets to... more

I have to smile rather sadly when I read some of the other reviews on the site about the Anne Frank House. It's a beautiful, moving experience. I cried and cried. I would like to address the most frequent criticisms of the house and suggest how to get the most out of it. Queues - yes if you don't book... more

If you have the opportunity, you should go to this museum. I found the video clips from the Miep VERY interesting. I thought it was a pretty good museum except that it was too crowded. We went late in the day and it felt like we were in the cattle car trying to get through. If you only have the... more
