Following an upward trend over the past few years, the online travel industry’s global revenue is expected to exceed more than $800 billion by 2029. If you’ve ever thought about owning a host travel agency, consider becoming a Dream Vacations Franchise Owner to reap the benefits of working with an established brand.
When you own a travel franchise, you get to earn income on your terms, help others experience unforgettable vacations and recruit Dream Vacations Advisors to help your business succeed.
What Is a Host Travel Agency?
There are differences in owning a travel franchise vs host agency. A travel franchise is like a business in a box. You follow the model of a successful franchisor like Dream Vacations, enjoying affordability, profitability and ease of operation. With a host travel agency, you start from scratch and partner with independent contractors who work as travel agents for your business.
As a Dream Vacations Franchise Owner, you can also work with independent contractors known as Dream Vacations Advisors. However, you receive incredible franchisor support when it comes to helping advisors with marketing, training and technology. You can grow as quickly as your dedication allows or as slowly as you need to achieve your goals. You can sell travel yourself while leveraging the benefits of owning a host travel agency – the ability to bring on independent contractors and expand your horizons.

With a Dream Vacation franchise, you have the freedom to be the boss, set your schedule and tailor the business to your liking. Our company offers comprehensive support and training to help you launch your franchise, equipping you with the assets needed for growth and long-term success.
