The Travel Franchise helps anyone start their own home based travel business, even if they have no former travel experience.

Indeed some of their 665 franchisees have become so successful they have won industry awards and many say they love what they do so much it doesn’t feel like ‘work’.
With opportunities to travel the world it’s no wonder they were voted the world’s Best Lifestyle Franchise in 2025 at the International Franchise Association’s Global Franchise Awards in Las Vegas. They were also voted Britain’s Best Home Based Franchise in 2024.
Franchisees are in complete control of the hours they work. It means you can create a better work-life balance with a business that compliments your vision and lifestyle.
You have the opportunity to work part-time or full-time - or even in your spare time! And you can fit the business around your family or other work commitments. You will get everything you need to get started immediately - many of franchisees book holidays immediately after finishing our five-day virtual training.
Whether you’re sending families to Orlando or honeymoon couples on a luxury safari in Africa, you’ll have access to literally millions of travel options including:
The Travel Franchise business model is based on commission: a travel supplier pays you a fee for selling their holidays. An ‘average’ commission is 10% of the holiday value, meaning a £3,500 holiday would generate £350 in commission. With only two sales per week you would get £35k+ in commissions per year! Some operators offer 15%-20% commission.
The largest bookings are over £100,000 per holiday, and you will learn how to attract people who spend £10k+ per trip.
Many of our franchisees earn good money in their first year of business. The proof? Their Unique Money-Back Challenge. Hit a set amount of commission in your first 12 months and you win your entire Elite franchise fee back - meaning your business will cost you next to nothing! While it’s not easy to achieve, five people beat the challenge in January 2025. No other franchise offers a Money-Back Challenge!
The travel industry is highly regulated and requires close commercial relationships. The Travel Franchise removes all of those barriers for you: as a franchisee, you’ll get everything you need to start a travel consultancy business and be booking holidays after five days’ training with support from travel experts who have had years of experience in the industry.
