The royals were not joined by their husbands as they headed out for the day, beginning with a stop at the Mondriaan ROC school, a regional education centre in The Hague.

The visit was designed to illustrate how Dutch teenagers are being prepared for the workforce, including the teaching of vocational subjects. 

The queens appeared in good spirits as they spoke to some of the students.  

They later met up with their husbands for a photo call and lunch with Dutch Prime minister Mark Rutte.

Maxima looked ready for spring in a knee-length ruffled dress with bronze beaded on the waistband and cuff. 

She drew on the colour for her accessories, teaming the flirty frock with a brown suede heels, a matching clutch and elegant gloves. 

Meanwhile Rania kept her style sleeker with a grey turtleneck jumper and leather blazer, which she paired with her wide-leg cropped trousers and chic grey suede pumps. 

The Jordanian royal also used the same handbag that she was seen with on Monday, showing she has packed a capsule wardrobe for the short visit. 

Last night Maxima and her husband King Willem-Alexande welcomed the Jordanian royals to the palace for a glittering reception. 

The Dutch queen looked stunning in a vibrant yellow gown. Rania opted for an embellished black frock, which featured floral detailing around the neckline and down the sides.

Earlier in the day, Maxima had looked a vision in camel as she wore a perfectly co-ordinated ensemble to greet the Jordanian royals.

Ensuring to wrap up warm, the mother-of-three opted for a stylish wool cape, which she teamed with leather gloves and a wide-brimmed hat perched perfectly over her neatly swept blonde hair.

Maxima finished the look with matching camel heels and a brown leather clutch purse.

Meanwhile, Rania also got the memo about wrapping up warm, having left behind the balmy temperatures of Jordan to travel with her husband King Abdullah.  

The glamorous middle eastern queen wore a light teal blue woolen coat with side button detail and a whisp of a chiffon scarf at the neck.

The Jordanian royal visit has a serious note with the couples expected to discuss counter-terrorism and defence issues during the whirlwind visit, with Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte joining the quartet.

This trip is in place of a state visit planned for November 2017 that was postponed last autumn.
