Barbados / Tour Operators

By Sara Macefield

 

The secret of Barbados’s enduring appeal is its ability to attract very different markets – the well-heeled clients that holiday at its plush West Coast hotels and the mass market customers who flock to the cheaper properties on the South Coast. Such a polarised market means the island is served by charter, as well as scheduled flights, along with major package holiday companies, upmarket travel organisers, or accommodation specialists who focus on the island’s sumptuous line-up of luxurious rental villas. Then there are the sports specialists that home in on the island’s golf and other sporting facilities. Travellers can also tap into Definitive Caribbean as their guide to the island and use travel agents to put together a package specifically tailored to their needs or make their own arrangements. The key thing to remember is to book with a fully-bonded company or take out relevant insurance that will cover you if your chosen travel provider fails.
