Become a work-from-home travel agent

Why look for a travel agent job and work for someone else, when you could become a franchisee and run your own travel business with Travel Counsellors.
Whether you’re brand-new to the world of travel, are an independent travel agent, or want to work from home selling holidays rather than in a retail environment, we have a training programme to suit everyone.
Whatever your background, we’ll give you the training, tools, and technology you need to start a travel agency from home – with the ability to be a tour operator and package bespoke itineraries using our world-class platform, Phenix.
