I loved everything! All the employees were so helpful and sure made the experience better!! All the rooms were super fun with different themes to explore. Also, the macha and hot chocolate we got from the cafe were phenomenal, a bit sweet for our tast but nothing short from amazing. It's definitely a must see if one is visiting Amsterdam.

Great, original entertaining experience!. Lot of fun for all ages. Very friendly staff guide the clients if necessary and will even take some photos with your phone if so requested. They seem to have new upside down rooms every so often. Absolutely recommended.

What an experience! Immerse yourself into Barbie world, it’s hell of an experience! Get to know more about Barbie, the evolution over the years and take some amazing pictures and videos. Unique opportunity to be a Barbie yourself. As Barbie says, you can be anything!! an astronaut, a hair stylist, a race driver…. Infinite opportunities… not even sky is the limit

The Barbie Dream Experience in Amsterdam was such a pleasant surprise! It wasn’t even on our itinerary, but it turned out to be one of the most fun things we did on our trip. The whole experience was full of colour, creativity, and great photo moments. The staff were super attentive and made sure we got the most out of every part, especially Clari, who was so friendly and helpful throughout. Highly recommend adding this to your list if you’re in Amsterdam!

Magnificent, grandiose, both the images and the music, and original locations where you can admire the shows while lying on the floor. Meditative and relaxing.
