The large selection of different ways to organize your day. I think it's a shame that many interesting sights have to be booked online in advance to get a ticket. We couldn't visit the van Gogh Museum because we didn't get a ticket.

Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum Amsterdam Highlights
Shrunken Heads
As one of the most recognisable displays at the museum, this Ripley's collection of shrunken heads numbers over 100. Genuine shrunken heads, known as tsantsa, were priceless markers of valour or success for tribal warriors. In 1923, a dealer in Panama City sold a shrunken head to young explorer Robert Ripley.
Vortex Tunnel
The Space Tunnel at Ripley's Amsterdam is a pitch-black, trippy tunnel that creates the impression that you are whirling through a black hole. Your senses will be put to the test in this revolving vortex tunnel. This makes you want to grab onto the walls as you pass through a corridor.
Micro Miniatures
William Wigan, from England, is one of the finest micro-miniature sculptors in the entire globe. His masterpieces are the size of an eyelash; they are so little that they may fit in a needle eye or in the head of a pin.
Ripley’s Warehouse
In addition to the exhibitions, Ripley's has a warehouse of its own. It has a tiny theatre where you may watch suitably bizarre videos. It contains a scream chamber that can make even the coolest kid scream, as well as an illusion photo booth where you can have your picture taken and altered.
The Jungle Room
In their "Jungle Room," Ripley's Believe it or Not! presents a fantastic exhibit. One can explore the rainforest to find authentic tribal relics, a real cave bear skeleton, the Padaung "long-necked women," and, of course, Ripley's famous collection of shrunken heads!
Optical Illusions and Games
The museum features a wide range of interactive exhibits that are intended to stimulate young minds. Optical illusions are common including ones that spring out at you to frighten you, and enormous games like wall puzzles, shooting ranges, etc., are all part of the Ripley’s.

What an experience! I wasn't sure at first but once you go in there is so much to see and do. It was very busy so it is something to bare in kind if you don't like large crowds.
All the exhibits were so interesting and there is lots of interesting photo opportunities! Definitely one of the best attractions I went to in Amsterdam.
