Make sure to buy tickets in advance. I didn't have much of a wait at all. It was an amazing experience, very informative. There is a gift and coffee shop inside the building.
It’s worth visiting! The story is super emotional and inspiring... They have everything very well distributed and the audio guides are very good! The only bad thing is that they don’t accept cash to buy in the store or restaurant! Only card they receive!
We took the guided talk prior to the museum which was Anne's story told by a staff member who was very knowledgeable with photos of the family in a room which you were permitted to take photos. The main museum itself you are not permitted. It is a worthwhile visit helping you understand the lengths this family went to, in an attempt to survive such perilous times.
Anne Frank House and Museum. It is best to get tickets online in advance. The surrounding area is also lovely for walking next to canals and exploring Amsterdam
The long queues to enter for more than an hour It's enough for me not to return to visit when someone comes to Amsterdam to visit me, there are also a lot of people inside the house which becomes very oppressive, Making the experience worse, they also don't let you take photos, all the time some worker scolds you. As you will see with my photos I did not care. I think they only care about getting your money and not Delve into what was the tragic life of the Frank family
Anne Franke house was so informative and done so well. The storytelling is amazing. To experience the imagination of Anne during the most tragic time of her life gives a lot to think about. If you are in Amsterdam, you should visit.
You must get tickets 6 weeks in advance be sure to prepare.

Everyone has heard of Anne Frank, so this review focuses on the practicalities.
Tickets have to be purchased in advance and are only available from the official website. Tickets are released every Tuesday at 10am UK time six weeks in advance. They offer a 30min introduction which we purchased and felt was worthwhile to set everything in context for the other people in our group. You then get taken downstairs to the main entrance where you collect your audio guide. Point the device at the numbers in the rooms to hear the audio.
Be warned! Lots of steps when you get into parts of the original house. No spoilers as far as the house is concerned but it's well worth the visit. We felt numbers were controlled well even though a few rooms got a little congested. There is a cafe on site with lovely views over the canal.

We were so fortunate to be successful in purchasing tickets via the Anne Frank Website in order to be able to visit this museum.
We paid for an English Speaking Introduction prior to the tour, which enabled us to take a few limited photos prior to entering the museum itself.
The tour is very humbling, and brings home the horrific circumstances faced by the Jews during the War.
There is an audio guide included in the price, in multiple languages, you scan it at various locations as you proceed through Anne Franks House.
The attention to detail is phenomenal, this has been on my list of places to visit for many years, and I can only say it's worth every penny and effort to secure tickets. Photos and filming are prohibited, which helps preserve the museum in its original state, you also focus all your attention on the experience.
The cafe is reasonably priced, and very much needed after absorbing all the information regarding how 8 people had to live in secret in order to avoid capture.
Heartbreakingly, they were discovered and were put on the last train to the concentration camps! It wrenches at your heart.
The shop has a selection of quality items including copies of her diary, a diary which should be read, even if it's the only Diary you read.

Small house and museum but worthy. The audio device is included in the price but I recommend the context talk, not mandatory but you will understand faster what happened during the rooms in the museum.
It's forbidden to take photos inside.
You have to book and buy your tickets very in advanced

Very moving experience. Very well organized. After your tour, great coffee shop to reflect on your experience with an unforgettable view of Amsterdam. It was hard to leave the view.
