The Slow Magic of a Dutch Summer

Think the Netherlands isn’t made for summer holidays? Think again. In this third episode of Orange Horizons, we take you on a laid-back journey through the Dutch summer, where long evenings, quiet landscapes, and car-free adventures create space to breathe.

Join us as we explore over 35,000 km of cycling paths, discover nature stays deep in the forest, and drift through peaceful waterways. From iced mint tea in Zeeland to greenhouse glamping in Drenthe, this is travel that’s light on impact, but rich in experience.

Fun fact: this episode is fully narrated using AI technology! Because here in the Netherlands, we like to try new things every now and then. Even though human voices will remain the norm for Orange Horizons.
