Ministry of Foreign Affairs meets the Travel Industry
We visited an interesting ‘NL op Reis’ (Dutch travelling abroad) meeting today, organized by Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the city of The Hague on the topic Foreign Travel Advice – most Dutch tourists do not seem to be bothered at all about such issues like taking out proper travel insurance, and the risk for a number of vaccine preventable illnesses.
The Dutch minister of Foreign Affairs, Frans Timmermans, leading umbrella organization ANVR, famous travel journalists and medical experts were leading the discussion.
Although official information and advice from the Dutch Government is given on the Foreign Affairs website, there is room for some improvement to inform consumers on health and travel risks.
