STRAAT Museum Admission

STRAAT Museum Admission is one of ten museum entries compared on this site, it runs 1 to 2 hours, and the live listing opens at $25.45 a person. It carries 4.8 from 222 reviews, reproduced here exactly as the operator publishes it.

Overview

STRAAT sits in a warehouse on the NDSM Wharf, reached by ferry from Amsterdam Central Station, and this ticket covers admission to a museum given over entirely to street art and graffiti. The works are big, bright and, as one reviewer put it, in your face, hung in an industrial hall that suits the scale of the pieces.

The visit runs at your own pace. The listing suggests 1 to 2 hours, and reviewers land on both ends of that: some said they were through in about 45 minutes, while others stayed two hours because there were more styles and artists than they expected. There is no guided route to keep up with, so you can fit the museum around the rest of your day.

It suits travellers who want a break from the more traditional museums in the centre, and one reviewer recommends it for creative young adults and teens. There is a cafe inside, with more options near the wharf if you arrive early.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical points will help you plan the visit, most of them drawn from what past visitors have said.

• Getting there. The free ferry from the central station is the standard route, and several reviewers describe it as simple. One traveller found the museum a little tricky to reach from the station but still well worth the effort.
• Pace it yourself. There is no fixed route or schedule once inside. Reviewers' timings vary from about 45 minutes to two hours, so plan a loose window rather than a tight one.
• Bring teenagers. One reviewer recommends the museum for creative young adults and teens, and another says their family visit surprised them with the quality of the works.
• Food and drink. There is a cafe inside during the day, and reviewers mention cafes near the wharf for early arrivals.
• Space to roam. Reviewers describe the hall as big, bright and in your face. The scale of the pieces is part of the appeal.
• Accessibility. The listing states the museum is wheelchair and pushchair accessible, service animals are allowed, and the transport over is wheelchair accessible too. Most travellers can participate.

Common issues. The listing's cancellation terms are strict in the final window: no refund if you cancel less than 24 hours before your start time, and no changes accepted inside that window either. If you arrive late for your slot, one reviewer reported being admitted to a later entry without fuss, but that is goodwill rather than a stated policy.
