UNIque Reisen

UNIque Reisen is a German travel company based in Hamburg that specialises in educational and study travel. Rather than selling off-the-shelf package holidays, the operator designs individual itineraries for universities, adult education centres (Volkshochschulen), associations and other special-interest groups. Its portfolio is built around three main pillars: LandFrauen Reisen (culinary and agricultural-themed trips for rural women's associations), Hochschul-Exkursionen (subject-oriented university excursions aligned with academic curricula) and Sondergruppen (custom programmes for clubs, associations and corporate clients). The company positions itself as one of the few tour operators in Germany focused specifically on organising study trips and subject-oriented excursions for scientific institutes. According to its own description, its team regularly travels to destination regions to vet service providers, test new routes and meet carefully selected local partners, so that it can offer high-quality services for study trips and excursions. During trips, participants are looked after by experienced local partners who speak the local language as well as English and, in some cases, German. UNIque Reisen emphasises personal service: direct contact with the organiser of the study trip, the excursion leader or the traveller; a high degree of individuality; information from first hand; and country presentations held at institutes on location. It also stresses a good price-performance ratio that is affordable for students, and reliable partners and service providers in the destinations, regularly checked by UNIque Reisen staff. The company is led by managing director Corinna Grave, who, according to the company's website, had already spent 16 years in the tourism industry before joining UNIque Reisen. The team is based in Hamburg, and the company's communication uses the northern German greeting "Moin Moin". No parent company, ownership structure or founding year is disclosed in the available sources; the business appears to be an independent, privately held tour operator.

UNIque Reisen is a Hamburg-based tour operator specialising in educational and study travel. The available sources do not state a founding year or a detailed corporate history. What can be established is that the company operates from Hamburg and describes itself as one of the few travel organisers in Germany that has specialised in organising study trips and subject-oriented excursions for scientific institutes. The company's self-description emphasises that its team regularly travels to destination regions in order to check service providers, test new routes and discuss arrangements with carefully selected local partners. This hands-on approach is presented as the basis for offering high-quality services for study trips and excursions. During trips, participants are supported by experienced local partners who, in addition to the respective national language, speak English and in some cases German. UNIque Reisen's product range is built around tailor-made travel rather than standardised packages. The company states: "Eins ist sicher: Kein Produkt von der Stange!" (One thing is certain: no off-the-shelf product!). It designs individual trips for each target group, whether excursions for universities or special groups for adult education centres and associations. Its three named product lines are LandFrauen Reisen, Hochschul-Exkursionen and Sondergruppen. LandFrauen Reisen are trips aimed at rural women's associations, combining culinary experiences such as joint cooking courses, insights into a country's agriculture and encounters with "Powerfrauen" (strong women) from around the world. Hochschul-Exkursionen are subject-oriented university excursions; UNIque Reisen describes itself as a specialist in this field and organises programmes together with excursion leaders that are perfectly aligned with the curriculum. Sondergruppen covers custom travel for adult education centres, clubs, associations and businesses that want to organise a trip for their customers or members. The company is led by managing director Corinna Grave. According to the website, she spent 16 years in the tourism industry, including training as a travel agent (Reiseverkehrskauffrau), before taking on her role at UNIque Reisen. The team is based in Hamburg and uses the northern German greeting "Moin Moin" in its communications. No parent company, investor or group affiliation is mentioned in the available sources, and no stock listing is indicated; the business appears to be an independent private tour operator.
