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.

If you have any questions about our ABTA membership or the financial protection provided under our ATOL, please don't hesitate to call us on 020 7290 1104.

Dertour gives you ATOL protection with every flight

DERTOUR set to bring more products into the UK market

Press release: 08 November 2010

German tour operator Dertour has announced plans to grow its product range within the UK market. The operator has recently undergone a significant technology upgrade, which now allows it to link directly with the system in the main Frankfurt office and therefore utilise its extensive product offering. In Germany, Dertour is part of the second largest tour operator group, offering holidays all around the world and this development aims to make the operator a major player in the UK by providing agents with worldwide destinations they want to sell.

Travel agents in the UK will be the main target for Dertour in this move. In Germany, DER uses its own travel agency networks extremely well to distribute its products and they drive a significant part of its business. Whilst the UK office does not own its own travel agencies, its has long established relationships with all of the major consortia's as well as the specialised independents and Dertour UK is planning to meet with key agents going forward to discuss ways they can bring extra product to them.

Julie Craig Managing director at Dertour UK comments "We are extremely lucky to have such a strong backing behind us with unreserved access to such a wealth of product. We are now at a stage where we can begin to bring in certain parts of their products such as their market leading city programme and match it up with our partner agencies' requirements so we can bring value to their business".

DER Chairman Micheal Frese also adds "It has been a long ambition of us to share our quality product with our satellite offices. The UK represents a very important market which we already successfully operate in. Our UK office has now the necessary framework in place to distribute all of our worldwide products in the UK market.

DERTOUR's commercial team will be engaging its agency partners in the coming months to better understand their needs and how this potential new product can enhance their sales.
