LUXURY TRAVEL TRAINING | GLOBAL
Whether you’re starting fresh or scaling to seven figures, we provide you with the business skills, luxury expertise, and mentorship that host agencies and traditional training simply don’t provide.
BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER
Whether you’re exploring this career or already in it, you’ve probably come across the same advice. Here’s what’s actually going on.
Myth # 1
Host agencies provide systems and support, but most don’t teach you how to build your business. You’ll learn their portals, not how to find clients. Signing up is easy — knowing what to do next is where people get stuck.
Myth # 2
You could spend months on supplier certifications and resort trainings — and still have zero clients to book. Most programs have you focused on the wrong thing at the wrong time. Destination knowledge matters only after you have someone to sell to.
Myth # 3
Budget travel and luxury travel are different businesses entirely — different clients, different expectations, different skills. The longer you operate like a budget advisor, the harder it becomes to shift. Starting with the right foundation matters.
THE DEOLIX DIFFERENCE
The Deolix Academy is an independent training program that teaches you the complete business of selling luxury travel as an independent advisor.
Our curriculum covers everything from finding your first client to closing $50,000 bookings, with live mentorship to guide you through real-world situations.
No recruiting. No host agency contracts.
Just professional training built for people who want to do this right.

REAL RESULTS
Don’t take our word for it. Here’s what happens when real people follow the Deolix system.
“Not long after completing the program, I was able to recoup 100% of the tuition with my very first travel booking.” (Sorry for the video quality!)
“I took Dean’s course about three years ago and it completely changed my life…..if you’re on the fence about buying the course, do it.”
“I took Dean’s course about three years ago and it completely changed my life…..if you’re on the fence about buying the course, do it.”
“What was important to me was Dean’s hands-on and down-to-earth approach. I could really relate to him.”
WHY DEOLIX
Most training comes with strings attached — recruiting quotas, host agency contracts, or watered-down content that’s really just sales training for their products. We’re different.
Most training programs only teach you how to book. We also teach you how to make money: finding clients, closing sales, and running a business.
We teach you to sell $50,000 trips from day one, not to “work your way up” starting with budget bookings. Different market, different approach.
We’re not tied to any host agency. Our training helps you evaluate your options and choose the right fit for your business, not ours.
More than just video courses you watch alone. Live group coaching, direct feedback, and a community of professionals, not hobbyists.
The best advisors use AI to free up their time for what actually grows the business: relationships. We teach you how.
No hidden upsells. No recruitment. No “pay-to-play” surprises. You see exactly what you’re getting before you invest a dime.

FOUNDER
Dean has spent over two decades in luxury travel, building five successful agencies from the ground up and developing systems that turn passion into profit. His experience spans everything from solo advising to leading teams and scaling operations.
But what drove him to create The Deolix Academy wasn’t his own success. It was watching so many others struggle. Talented people who joined the wrong programs, followed bad advice, and never learned the business skills that actually matter.
Dean built The Deolix Academy to be the training he wished existed when he started: practical, honest, and focused on building a real business.
