The Museumkaart costs less than €70 and gives you unlimited access to almost every museum in The Netherlands for 1 year. I KNOW!! Hard to believe. But so far that has been my experience.
Some museums may charge a nominal fee for special exhibits. For example, hubs and I went to the Hermitage in Amsterdam and paid an extra €2.50/pp to see 2 special exhibits. Even that was a discount because each exhibit was €2.50 on top of the museum ticket price. And there is a small sculpture museum very close to our house that charges a nominal fee for their exhibits. (For that museum, however, once you've paid the extra fee you don't have to pay it again until the exhibit changes.)
We've been pleasantly surprised at some of the museums we can enter with our Museumkaart. When we were in Gouda we stumbled upon Sint Janskerk which accepted the Museumkaart. It's a beautiful church which is on the UNESCO list because of it's stained glass windows. And when we went to Arnhem the Airborne Museum also accepted the Museumkaart. Even the Louwman Museum, a museum that has nothing but classic cars, accepts the Museumkaart!!
A few museums I have been to multiple times. Usually I end up going more than once because I'll visit the museum, see something I think hubs will appreciate, and then go back with him. Others have changed their exhibitions and I've wanted to see the new ones. This is also quite handy for when guests visit, because then I can go with each and every one of them without having to pay another dime.
So, if you intend on living in NL for an extended period of time, (and you enjoy museums) I HIGHLY recommend this purchase.
