The schedule above is what the MEVAYA planner builds for a Sunday. It only contains stops that are open that day — the planner reads each stop's closing days and will not route you to a closed venue, even one marked as essential.

The day covers about 0.4 km on foot and 1 public-transport hop (about 2.2 km), used only where walking would cost more time than it saves.

Only 3 stops need booking: Anne Frank House, Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum. Everything else is free or sold at the door.

09:00–10:26 — Anne Frank House. The canal house where Anne Frank and seven others hid for two years before being betrayed in 1944, entered through the bookcase into the empty Secret Annex. Quiet, moving and narrow. Tickets are released online weeks ahead and are the only way in. Verified opening hours: Daily 09:00–22:00. Closed on Yom Kippur; shorter hours on some holidays (09:00–17:00 on 25 and 31 December). Tickets online only, released every Tuesday at 10:00 for six weeks later. Book ahead: this stop needs a reservation or a timed ticket.

10:44–13:37 — Rijksmuseum. The Dutch national museum, with Rembrandt's Night Watch at the end of the Gallery of Honour and Vermeer's Milkmaid a few metres away. Go to the Gallery of Honour first and the rest after; the 17th-century wing on the second floor is the core. Verified opening hours: Daily 09:00–17:00, including public holidays. A timed start slot is required for every visit. Book ahead: this stop needs a reservation or a timed ticket.

13:37–14:37 — Lunch. The planner reserves time to eat right after Rijksmuseum, so the afternoon continues from where the morning ended instead of detouring for food.

14:49–16:56 — Van Gogh Museum. The largest Van Gogh collection anywhere, about two hundred paintings hung chronologically from the dark Dutch years to Arles and Auvers. Sunflowers, the Bedroom and the Almond Blossom are all here. There is no ticket desk: every visit is a timed online slot. Tickets are sold online only, for a fixed time slot. Hours change by season; check the dates for your visit. Book ahead: this stop needs a reservation or a timed ticket.
