April 25, 2026

After years in the travel industry with another host agency, I reached a point where I knew something had to change. I had become just another agent in a sea of advisors with little real support, minimal connection to leadership, and the feeling that no one truly cared whether I succeeded or struggled.
Joining The Wander Network has been one of the best business decisions I've ever made.
From the start, Shannon and Kellie have genuinely wanted to know who I am, what kind of business I'm building, and how they can help me get there. That care shows up every single day in the way they communicate, mentor, and advocate for their agents.
What truly sets The Wander Network apart is how openly they share their knowledge and connections. In this industry, relationships are everything. They actively introduce you to their preferred suppliers, BDMs, and partners, and they coach you on how to leverage those relationships to grow the travel business you want. The training retreats, supplier events, and continuing education opportunities are some of the best I've experienced in my entire career. There's always a new supplier to meet, a new destination to explore, and a new skill to sharpen.
The community of advisors within TWN is just as remarkable. Everyone is encouraging, generous with their insight, and quick to celebrate each other's wins.
The Wander Network has given me the support, tools, and community I needed and I'm so grateful to call it home.

After spending months researching host agencies, I was overwhelmed and honestly a little discouraged. So many options felt like MLMs, and I didn’t want that. Then a friend recommended The Wander Network, and everything changed.

I did my research, and they truly sounded like the perfect fit… so I decided to take a leap of faith and join. From the moment I started the signup process, Shannon, the CEO, was incredibly personable and responsive. That alone made me feel like I made the right choice.

I’ve now been with The Wander Network for just 4 months, and it has hands down been one of the best decisions I’ve made. I’m new to the travel world, and the amount of support I’ve received has been amazing. The other agents are genuinely kind and always willing to help, no matter how big or small the question is. It truly feels like a second family.

We have weekly meetings every Wednesday covering different topics and suppliers, which keeps us sharp and up to date. Kellie, the VP, and Shannon have both gone above and beyond for me, whether I needed guidance, had a question, or just needed reassurance, they were only a call or email away. Their support has been invaluable.

They also give you the tools to succeed from day one, and once you attend your first retreat, they even offer leads to help you grow your business. The amount of resources, training, and encouragement they provide has made me feel confident booking trips and building my travel business.

Thank you Shannon and Kellie for helping make this dream become a reality.

So glad I chose this agency to start my career! The amount of training and knowledge I have been given is AMAZING. It is more than just a host agency, it is a community driven by a passion for travel. Everyone is open to help you get going and share tips and tricks. The level of open dialog and just overall communication within the agency is definitely top tier.

Wander Network has been an incredible host agency to work with! As a new agent, I felt supported from day one. Their team is responsive, patient, and genuinely invested in helping you succeed. The networking opportunities they provide are outstanding — you’re instantly connected with a community of knowledgeable, encouraging advisors who are always willing to share insight and advice.
The educational resources are top-notch as well; the trainings, workshops, and ongoing learning opportunities make it easy to grow your skills and confidence quickly. I’m so grateful to be part of Wander Network and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a host agency that truly supports its agents.

The Wander Network is a Great place for COMPLETE beginners.
Like me, I was completely new to the travel Industry, I travel occasionally with my family around the United States in an RV, but I've never booked a trip in my life. The Wander Network has so much resources and they give you everything you need to be a travel agent.
Now I feel confident and ready to book trips for clients! And of course, if I need anything, they're always there to help!
Thank You Shannon & Kellie!

The Fall Retreat was super informative and packed with so many extra tools and resources I didn’t even know existed! I’ve been trying to register for as many as I can because there’s just so much value being offered.

I absolutely loved the engagement with the suppliers and other agents — it makes learning feel so interactive and fun. Connecting with fellow agents who are successful and part of the same team is so motivating; I always leave each session feeling inspired and re-energized.

A huge thank you to Kellie and Shannon for being so hands-on, supportive, and genuinely caring. Their dedication truly shows, and I’m so proud to be part of a network that’s growing and blossoming so beautifully.

I’m even more excited now for the in-person conference — can’t wait! 💼✈️

I was at a previous host agency with Shannon before she started the Wander Network! I took the leap and left my previous agency to sign up for the wander network and I couldn’t be happier with my decision! It is truly the best most knowledgeable agency I have been under! They give us all the tools!

As the founder of Castle and Quill Travels, finding the right host agency was essential, and I couldn’t have asked for a better partnership. Their team is incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely passionate about helping travel advisors thrive. From day one, they’ve provided outstanding training opportunities, helpful resources, and a community that truly feels like a team. I’m grateful to be part of an agency that not only sets you up for success but cheers you on every step of the way.

Highly recommended for anyone looking to grow in the travel industry with guidance, heart, and expertise

I was searching for a host agency that would support me in building a travel business that felt truly mine — one where I could set my own branding, voice, and business model without having to fit into a one-size-fits-all mold. The Wander Network has been exactly that and more. It’s given me the freedom to shape my agency in a way that feels authentic and unique, while also providing a strong support system behind the scenes.

What I didn’t expect was how connected I’d feel. Even though I’m running my own business, I don’t feel like I’m doing it alone. There’s a real sense of community here — like having other fellow TWN agents who genuinely want to see you succeed, without sacrificing your individuality. It’s truly the best of both worlds.

I came across The Wander Network in 2024. I had a zoom meeting with Shannon and Kellie. Unfortunately life was hectic and I had to wait before I took the jump. This year in 2025 I searched for TWN again and without hesitation I signed up. It has been the best decision I've made by far!! The time they put into helping you learn and grown is amazing. Weekly trainings, a hub full of past trainings and connections to help you expand your agency and learn your niche. They're available for anything big or small. They truly care and want the best for you. As well as the other agents. We are like a big family. I look forward to growing together!
