A video of half an hour about the foreign visits that the Queen made during her reign:

NOS Nieuws - NOS 30 jaar Beatrix: de reizen

Among them the state visits to Luxembourg and Belgium (1981), Germany, UK, US (1982), an the two that are considered the most impressve/important/sensitive: Indonesia (1995) an Israel (1995).

They we even able to get Bill Clinton to say a few words about the Queen.

They also mention a state visit to Surinam, but considering he election results there a state visit during the Queen's reign is unlikely.
