★★★★★ “My top decision regarding host agencies” — Charlene Daigneault

“Host Agent, Big Impact”
I’ve been the proud owner of Smiles for Miles Travel in Northern Ontario for over six years now, and joining My Host Agent (the host division of Total Advantage Travel & Tours) is the best business decision I’ve made.
This year, I am honoured to be named one of Canada’s Top 50 Advisors in the 2025 Air Canada Vacations Ambassador Program. I honestly don’t think I would have hit that milestone without the incredible support and structure my host agency gives me every day.
The tiered commission program is a good deal. That’s thousands of extra dollars staying in my pocket instead of going to the host. And the fee? Just a flat $35 CDN a month. No surprises, no percentage grabs – just pure predictability.
Being 100% Canadian and TICO-registered means everything to me. The host team answers my calls and emails promptly, usually within minutes, not days. The TRAVERSAVERS supplier access is great, especially with Air Canada Vacations. My clients remain; my clients, long term. My Host Agent never touches them or my data.
I also love our travel advisor community, the marketing tools, the fam trips, and the constant training. The support we get is designed to help us grow, not compete with us. My Host Agent provides everything I need from a host agency.
If you’re a Canadian travel advisor who’s tired of high fees, slow support, or hosts that act like your competitors, do yourself a favour and talk to My Host Agent.

Our Story: A Legacy of Travel Expertise
“We are focused on ensuring our travel advisors are happy, knowledgeable, and successful, rather than simply concentrating on the number of advisors who join.” – Robert and John Zeus.
The story of My Host Agent started with Total Advantage Travel & Tours, established in Toronto in 1995, with a mission to offer expert travel services with integrity. Over the years, as the travel industry moved towards independent consultancy, we realized that advisors required more than just a host. They needed a true partner.
In response, we launched My Host Agent in December 2025, a dedicated hosting company designed to share our 30+ years of travel supplier relationships, TICO-registered stability, and back-office expertise with independent advisors across Canada. Today, we are proud to be a family-run organization that combines “big agency” perks with the personalized, one-on-one mentorship of a boutique host.
Decades of Leadership & Expertise
Founded by industry veterans Robert Townshend and John Zeus Tokatlidis, My Host Agent is built on over 30 years of travel leadership and a commitment to advisor success. Together, they combine extensive training, mentoring and retail travel expertise with an “agents-first” philosophy to provide Canadian travel advisors with the most transparent and supportive hosting model in the country.
