Top Netherlands’ tips from the travel trade
Emma Emslie is a Business Development Executive at Barrhead Travel, with thirteen years experience in the travel industry. In the past year alone, Emma has visited Alicante, the Netherlands, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Zambia, and many other inspiring destinations worldwide through leisure and professional travel.
Emma’s top tip: I have explored many Dutch cities, including Zaandam, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and The Hague, which is by far my favourite. The Hague is rich in history, serves as the home of the Dutch King and Queen, and hosts the renowned Girl with a Pearl Earring painting in the Mauritshuis museum there.
Paul Conroy is Head of Partnerships at Byway, the UK’s leading flight-free holiday specialist. He works across rail, accommodation and distribution partnerships, helping build sustainable growth through overland travel. Paul has over 25 years’ experience in the travel industry, including roles at lastminute.com and easyJet Holidays.
Paul’s top tip: The Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam genuinely moved me. Seeing extraordinary works usually hidden from view, up close and without the formality of a traditional gallery, is powerful. The building itself is beautiful, but it’s the intimacy and honesty of the art storage that really stays with you.
