If you book a DERTOUR offer through Travelissimo, DERTOUR Deutschland GmbH is your contract partner. Travelissimo offers these deals through its booking partner travianet and is not the tour operator itself. Insolvency protection follows German law: for package holidays you receive a certificate that names the insurer or fund. Your booking confirmation and travel documents come from the tour operator. We help with questions about the arrangement.
Our experience with DERTOUR
Our experience: What we value most about DERTOUR is the choice. The hotel range is wide, and round trips are a real focus that not every tour operator covers in such depth. The flexible options help when guests are not yet sure their plans will hold. The group’s own hotel brands are easy to compare, which helps our advice. We recommend DERTOUR especially for round trips and holidays where flexibility matters.
