Why Dutch Travelers Love the United States Few countries have embraced the United States quite like the Netherlands. The historical connection runs deep — New York City was originally founded as New Amsterdam in 1626 by Dutch settlers, and place names like Harlem, Brooklyn and the Catskills still carry that Dutch origin today. How Dutch Travelers Explore America Dutch tourists tend to approach America differently from other Europeans. Rather than sticking to one city, the typical Dutch traveler embraces the road trip mentality completely. The classic Dutch America trip combines the West Coast with Las Vegas and the national parks of the Southwest. Florida is equally popular, particularly among families drawn to Orlando and the beaches of Miami and the Florida Keys. The 2026 World Cup The summer of 2026 brings an extraordinary reason to visit. The FIFA World Cup is hosted across the United States and the Dutch national team plays its group stage matches in Dallas, Houston and Kansas City — three cities that rarely feature on the typical Dutch travel itinerary but have plenty to offer.
