Why you're safe with the holiday experts

DERTOUR is part of the DERTOUR GmbH group of Frankfurt - one of the world's leading tour operators . We also hold our own ATOL and are members of ABTA.

We've been creating perfect tailor-made holidays to the heart of Europe for 50 years. A lot has changed in that time, but one thing that has always remained the same is our total focus on serving you in the very best way that we can. This includes ensuring your satisfaction and security. It's why DERTOUR is fully licenced with our own ATOL and is also adheres to all the rules and principles of ABTA.

ATOL is a financial protection scheme for holidaymakers travelling on an air inclusive holiday, which is managed by the Civil Aviation Authority. This protects you from losing your money or from being stranded overseas in the very unlikely event that DERTOUR should go out of business. Our Air Travel Organiser's Licence (ATOL) number is ATOL 1839.

When you buy an ATOL protected air inclusive holiday* from us, you will receive a confirmation invoice from us (or via our authorised agent through which you booked) confirming your arrangements and your protection under our ATOL.

* The air inclusive holidays we arrange are ATOL protected providing either the person who pays for the booking is present in the UK when the booking is made or the first leg of any flight or flights we arrange for you commences in the UK. For further information, visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk

ABTA was created in 1950 by 22 leading travel companies. It now represents over 5,000 travel agencies and more than 900 tour operators, right across the British Isles. ABTA helps to maintain the highest standards of trading practice for the travel industry and its customers. The ABTA logo is a sign that you can expect choice, value and high levels of service from DERTOUR.

DERTOUR is also fully committed to always try to provide an alternative holiday or route in times of disruption that is out of our control, such as in the event of volcanic ash, disruption to air travel due to heavy snowfall or an airline strike grounding aircraft.

Potsdam Christmas Market

The UNESCO World Heritage City of Potsdam is a wonderful place to experience the magical atmosphere of the Potsdam Christmas markets. Enjoy steaming mulled wine as you admire the historic beauty of the market's Old Town setting. The Festival of Blue Lights located in the historical city centre is a popular visitor attraction with a local procession weaving through the city streets playing traditional music and showing off their colourful costumes. A trip to the Potsdam markets is popular with visitors who are on Berlin city breaks, as Berlin provides a wide choice of accommodation at affordable prices from where visitors are able to easily visit this traditional market.

Potsdam Christmas Market

From the shining blue lights of the Potsdam Christmas market in the Old Town, take a stroll through Sanssouci Park to reach the Romantic Market at the Crown Estate next to Sanssouci. Other charming Christmas markets in Potsdam include the Polish Market Sternenmarkt at Neuer Markt, the Bohemian Christmas Market in Babelsberg and the Dutch Market Sinterklaas in the Dutch Quarter. These traditional Christmas Markets are an accumulation of festive stalls, decorated in twinkling lights and sparkling decorations, selling local cuisine and hand crafted toys.
