Detur was founded in Finland in 1998 and is today established throughout the Nordic region with operations from Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. The first flights went from Finland to Turkey in the spring of 1998 and later the same year, holiday trips were arranged to Sousse and Monastir in Tunisia. Production later expanded to Egypt, Thailand, Crete, the United Arab Emirates and India. This year, we are bringing holidaymakers to the south coast of Turkey and the Greek islands of Crete and Rhodes. Detur was one of the first tour operators to understand and recognize the importance for the customer experience to be able to travel from their local airport to shorten travel time, reduce the cost of hotel accommodation and connecting transports to major airports and have therefore invested in operations from regional airports throughout the Nordic countries. Since November 2022, the ownership and management of Detur has been taken over by Aventuraholidays ehf, with operations in Denmark, Finland and Iceland. Aventuraholidays was established by a group of professionals in 2019, previous management and owners of Heimsferdir in Iceland, Bravo Tours in Denmark and Matkavekka in Finland. Operating with the latest travel technology, the new Detur, will be operating on Aventura’s reservation platform, being able to connect in real time with more than 2 million beds, and 300 airlines. This gives the group the potential of offering to Detur’s clients the best available offers in the most popular hotels in the favorite destinations of our clients.
Detur's mission is to offer affordable travel with a high level of service and quality with the customer experience in focus. We offer a wide range of hotels and apartments at different levels and classifications to be able to offer an alternative that suits requirements and expectations of the traveller.
