Summary
This summer, fewer Dutch travelers are hitting the road—down to 52% from 57% last year—thanks to tighter budgets and global tensions, with 40% citing geopolitical unease. But wanderlust’s not dead: trips are shifting to May and September, with most staying close to home in Europe and driving (66%). Eco-consciousness and crowd avoidance are driving choices, while AI travel tools are surging (39% vs. 24% last year). Still, congestion’s back—especially Friday afternoons—with roadwork and border checks adding to the chaos.
