Wellness travel agents specialize in retreats, spas, and health-focused trips. Growing demand and higher spend make this a timely and rewarding niche for agents who care about the category.
Wellness travel is more than a spa weekend. It’s retreats, fitness, mindfulness, and destinations built around renewal. Clients are willing to invest in experiences that match their goals—and they want an agent who understands the landscape.
Why wellness is a growing niche. Demand has surged. Clients range from stressed professionals to dedicated yogis to people recovering from burnout. Trips are often premium and repeat; once someone finds a retreat or brand they love, they return. Your job is to match them to the right program and property.
What you need. Genuine interest in wellness offerings, from meditation retreats to fitness resorts to thermal spas. You don’t need to be an instructor—you need to understand what different clients want and which suppliers deliver. A host with wellness and spa product helps you book with confidence.
Next step. If you’re drawn to travel that focuses on well-being, become a travel agent with a platform that supports niche specialists and keeps your commissions so you can build a wellness-focused business.
