This paper provides a profile of Dutch outbound travellers by the volume of expenditure segments including light, medium and heavy spenders. Significant differences are found among the spender categories in the descriptive variables which include sociodemographics, travel characteristics, travel philosophies, participated travel activites, and travel benefits sought. Based on the results, suggestions are given on targeting different spender groups for international travel marketers.

Key Words: tourism • marketing • segmentation • expenditure • Netherlands • strategies
