Are you curious to what extent Dutch people have holiday plans for 2025? The Dutch Board of Tourism & Conventions' Holiday Sentiment Monitor 2025 shows that the Dutch are even more travel-enthusiastic than last year. One positive result is that 21% of Dutch people plan to spend their next holiday in their own country.
The Netherlands Board of Tourism and Conventions (NBTC) conducts various studies in the field of tourism and recreation. Recently, their research report "Holiday Sentiment Monitor - July 2024" was published. This showed, among other things, that Dutch people who fear extreme weather conditions plan less to go to southern Europe and instead opt for a holiday at home.
The 2022 Key Figures show the latest figures on Flevoland's Tourism & Recreation sector: from overnight stays, visit motive and visit behaviour of both domestic and foreign tourists to activity and employment in recreation and tourism in Flevoland.

The survey was conducted in the 11 main countries of origin and provides data on Holland in general, but also has specific information on Flevoland.
