About us

From travel blog to travel agency

Damare Travel is a small team in Tallinn and Hamburg. We advise on expedition and luxury cruises and run our own specialist websites for them.

Our story

First we wrote about travel, then we started selling it


Most travel agencies start with a shop. We started with travel blogs. They brought enquiries for other travel agencies first, then for our own. That is why we know the questions travellers ask long before they book.

  1. Travel blogs

    Since 2015 we have been writing about travel, first on Konpasu.de, later also on TuerkeiReiseblog.de and AllAroundMalta.de, all in German. Together they reached millions of readers a year.

  2. Enquiries for partners

    Readers became travellers with specific plans. We passed these enquiries on to partner travel agencies.

  3. Our own travel agency

    With ArcticDesire.com we founded our own travel agency for expeditions to the Arctic and Antarctica, run by Damare Travel GmbH in Hamburg.

  4. Luxury and world cruises

    After the ice, many guests wanted to see more of the world. That is how luxury cruises and Weltreisekreuzfahrten.com came along, and today other travel agencies book through us as well.
