We went on a Thursday which is a slower day. It s open to tourists from 7-9 am. Other days it s open 7-11 am for tourists. The building is over 1 km long and it s the biggest building in the world. They mark it very clearly for tourists so if you drive there you will follows the signs for where to park and then there are very clear signs to guide you to the entrance. For 8 euros you gain entrance and follow the guided path that provides you a birds eye view of what s happening on the warehouse floor. There is an app you can download and use along the path for more information. You walk to the end of the 1 km to see the auction room. By 8 am there was less than 20 people bidding. The auction moves very quickly and you just observe through a glass window. You wrap up with a little history Overall, unique thing to do and it would be an easy trip from Amsterdam.
