Barbados / Local Organisers

Local organisers or ‘ground handlers’ as they are known in the travel industry are the people that can make the difference to how your holiday goes from the moment you walk through Immigration, through to the moment you step back onto the tarmac to commence your homeward journey. They are the ‘fixers’.

If you book a flight inclusive holiday from the UK/Europe, the services of a ground handler should be included. If you are an independent traveller wishing to have things organised for you, then it might be worth using the Concierge Service offered by most good ground handlers.

On Barbados we recommend St James Travel & Tours for their concierge services, group travel, business incentives, weddings and special events.
