Travel Agency Virtual Assistant

Community

Hello! I landed my first freelance client about a month ago, and I’m really enjoying the work so far. My boss often praises my work, and it made me realize that this might be a niche I’m actually good at.

However, since I’m still new to freelancing, I’m not exactly sure what this niche is called. The position I applied for was Customer Support Assistant, but my actual tasks are more focused on handling operations for a travel agency.

Here are some of the things I currently do:

• Research and create tour/experience listings

• Find stock photos for listings

• Upload tours to platforms like GetYourGuide and Viator

• Coordinate with tour providers and customers regarding bookings

• Update and manage our internal trackers

Because I really enjoy this work, I’d love to upskill and learn more about this field.

My questions are:

1.	What is this niche usually called in freelancing?

2.	Are there any courses, certifications, or training that focus on this type of work?

I’d really appreciate any advice or recommendations. Thank you so much! 🙏
