In the I am Van Gogh Tour, you follow the path of young Vincent through Amsterdam. ‘It is a beautiful city,’ wrote Van Gogh in one of his many letters to his brother Theo. During the tour you will see the city of Amsterdam through the eyes of young Vincent. He expressed the inspiration that he gained from Amsterdam in both the words in his letters and the paint in his works. Vincent stayed in Amsterdam for over a year for his studies in Theology.
