When you’re looking to book a Wellness Travel trip, you’re seeking more than just a vacation—you’re investing in your well-being. To ensure your travel agent is a true expert, look for specific certifications, industry awards, and key affiliations.
Here are the top accolades and qualifications our expert agents hold.
Top-Tier Certifications for Individual Agents
These are the most important credentials for an agent. They demonstrate a formal commitment to and education in the wellness travel sector.
- Certified Wellness Travel Specialist (CWTS): This is a premier certification offered by The Travel Institute in partnership with the Wellness Tourism Association (WTA). Agents with this credential have completed a specialized course covering wellness travel terminology, trends, destinations, and how to match clients with the right experiences.
- Certified Wellness Travel Advisor: Other organizations, like Wellness Travel University, also offer certification programs (e.g., “Gold Certified Wellness Travel Advisor”) that signal specialized training.
Key Awards & Recognition for Agencies
Our agency and agents are deeply familiar with the most prestigious awards in the industry and book properties that consistently win them.
- World Spa Awards: We work with partners who have been nominated or won a “World’s Best Wellness Travel Agency” or “Best Resort” award.
- Condé Nast Traveller Readers’ Choice Awards: We are experts on the properties and companies featured in the “Best Wellness Travel Specialist” or “Top Spa/Wellness Resorts” categories.
