Competitive sport as a baseline
Sport was not a side interest. It shaped discipline, rhythm, and the way the company thinks about performance travel today.
About Reiseathleten
Performance travel with structure, energy, and real community.
We build fitness holidays for people who want progress and presence in the same trip: strong coaching, curated destinations, and a booking flow that stays clear from first click to arrival.
Our story
Sport was part of everyday life long before travel became the product.
Today Reiseathleten is recognized globally in fitness travel. But we started small and built the company out of experience, not presentation.
Reiseathleten was founded in 2019, while our enthusiasm for sport and tourism had been growing for years before that.
Competitive sport had been part of daily life since childhood. At the same time, the desire to discover new cultures and perspectives took us across many continents.
Complementary bachelor's and master's degrees in sport, tourism, and management helped us found obu travel GmbH & Co. KG in 2015, the parent company behind Reiseathleten.
