History
DERTOUR Group can look back on a corporate history spanning over 100 years. In October 1917, the company was founded as Deutsches Reisebüro in Berlin. With sights always firmly set on the travel needs of guests, it was destined for growth and internationalisation from the outset. The company continually developed, broke new ground and, thanks to acquisitions and newly founded companies, evolved into the DERTOUR Group of today. Since 2000 it has been a 100 per cent subsidiary of REWE. Under the umbrella of REWE Group, one of the leading trading companies in Europe, the DERTOUR Group operates with around 200 companies in 16 European countries. In 2024, DER Touristik Group took a step in its strategic evolution. In 2025, DERTOUR Group acquired four of the five business units of the Hotelplan Group, an international travel group specialising in leisure and business travel, including the entire travel retail and tour operator business of Hotelplan Group in Switzerland, Germany, and the United Kingdom (the holiday home specialist Interhome is excluded); DERTOUR Deutschland GmbH also acquired the specialist tour operator I.D. Riva Tours. In 2026, DERTOUR Group launches a joint venture in Italy, combining Destination Management Company (DMC) DER Viaggi with long-standing partner Valentour.
