• The two Bavarian bus companies Hörmann Reisen and Stewa Touristik continue to rely on Setra double-decker coaches. Kings Travel Busvermietung in Hanover becomes a new customer of the brand with six S 531 DT coaches. 

Leinfelden-Echterdingen / Augsburg / Kleinostheim / Hanover - The two new 5-star double-decker coaches of Hörmann Reisen GmbH are each equipped with 68 specially upholstered seats and a panoramic glass roof. On the lower deck, passengers can relax in the spacious on-board kitchen, which offers plenty of storage space and cooling options. The service staff prepares here small snacks while travelling.

The family-owned company from Augsburg was according to their own information the first climate-positive coach tour operator to receive the seal of approval from the industry-independent sustainability consultancy Fokus Zukunft and helps to preserve the environment with voluntary climate protection contributions.

Hörmann Reisen GmbH offers among other things long-distance, round-trip, city and day tours and takes its guests on seaside and wellness holidays as well as providing transfers to various cruise ports. The company currently has 14 Setra vehicles in use.

Two new bistro coaches for Stewa Touristik

Stewa Touristik GmbH has taken ownership of two new S 531 DT coaches - and thereby rejuvenates Germany's largest Setra bistro coach fleet. The company from Kleinostheim in Lower Franconia now owns a total of 23 double-decker coaches of the brand.

The vehicles with panoramic roof have been awarded the 5-star Superior classification by the Gütegemeinschaft Buskomfort e.V. This means: the coaches, each equipped with 48 passenger seats, have extended seat spacing by four centimetres to meet the 5-star requirement.

They also offer among others additional padding for the backrests as well as adjustable neck, head and calf supports. The table trays always ensure horizontal stability, regardless of the position of the seat in front. 

Travellers can relax on the lower deck in the exquisitely designed bistro on 16 full-leather seats at four vis-à-vis tables – the trademark of the tour operator.

With over 180 employees, Stewa Touristik GmbH is one of the leading coach tour operators in the Rhine-Main region. In addition to a wide range of experiences, tours and study trips, the operator also offers a variety of health spa, wellness and hiking trips as well as ocean and river cruises.

KingsTravel puts its faith in Setra for the first time

KingsTravel Busvermietung GmbH chooses Setra. The Hanover-based service provider for tourism companies, event organisers and schools took delivery of its first new S 531 DT vehicles.

The six double-decker coaches, equipped with 83 seats, will be used for excursions to cruise ports, youth trips and school trips as well as for works transport. Among other things, the S 531 DT coaches are equipped with 360-degree cameras.

The family-run company has in addition to its headquarters in the state capital of Lower Saxony, four other locations in Germany and currently operates 30 coaches, including air replacement services.
