3. Trusted B2B Partner

We exclusively serve the B2B market, meaning we do not sell directly to the public. This approach allows us to support our partners fully, protecting your business and brand integrity.

We work with:

• Retail and wholesale travel agencies

• Tour operators

• Online travel agencies (OTAs)

• Luxury travel consultants

• MICE planners

Our white-label solutions ensure you stay in full control of the client experience while benefiting from our operational expertise and local resources.

4. Tailor-Made Travel, Not One-Size-Fits-All

At Virkauf DMC, we understand that no two travelers are the same. That’s why we don’t just offer pre-packaged itineraries — we build each program from scratch based on your client’s profile, interests, budget, and travel dates.

Whether your client is seeking:

• A romantic honeymoon in Santorini

• A religious pilgrimage across Central Europe

• A festive Christmas market tour in Germany

• A sustainable, eco-friendly trip in Sweden

• Or a luxury yacht charter along the French Riviera

…we handle every detail with precision and passion. Our goal is to help you deliver journeys, not just bookings.

5. Strategic Location in the UAE

Being headquartered in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE, positions us perfectly to understand the unique needs of the GCC and wider Middle Eastern travel markets. Our regional presence ensures:

• Time-zone convenience for communication and urgent requests

• Cultural alignment with both clients and travelers

• Easy access to payment facilities and secure transactions

• In-person training, support, and partnership development with our B2B clients

We also regularly attend regional travel trade shows and exhibitions, offering face-to-face consultation, contracting sessions, and co-branded marketing support for your Europe travel campaigns.

6. Multilingual, Culturally Fluent Team

Communication is key in the travel industry. Our team speaks multiple languages including Arabic, English, French, German, Russian, Spanish, and more. More importantly, we understand cultural expectations — especially when it comes to hospitality, service levels, food preferences (Halal-friendly options), and religious sensitivities.

This cultural fluency allows us to create itineraries and experiences that truly resonate with Middle Eastern travelers.

7. Technology-Driven Efficiency

• Online booking tools for hotel, transfers, and tours

• XML/API integration with your systems

• Real-time availability and instant confirmations

Whether you’re a traditional agency or a tech-based OTA, we align with your business model to streamline your workflow and reduce operational friction.

• 4* and 5* hotels

• Sightseeing operators

• Coach and car companies

• Licensed tour guides

• Event venues

• Tourism boards and local councils

Because of these relationships, we can offer not just availability — but value-added experiences your clients won’t find online or in mass-market tours.

9. Commitment to Quality & Reliability

At Virkauf DMC, we understand that in B2B travel, your reputation is everything. That’s why we commit to high-quality service, transparent communication, and 24/7 support. Each booking is assigned a dedicated account manager to ensure smooth operations, from initial quotation to final departure.

Our 24-hour helpline ensures your clients are never left unsupported, no matter where in Europe they travel.

We are ISO-certified and adhere to international standards in service quality, data protection, and financial compliance.
