In June 2026, the Guadeloupe Islands welcomed 20 of the destination’s top-performing travel agents in France, Belgium, and Switzerland, as part of a fam trip organized through the Secrets of the Guadeloupe Islands program.
Over five days, participants explored four islands of the Archipelago, with one objective: to experience the destination firsthand in order to better understand, recommend, and sell it to their clients.
Five days of immersion in the heart of the destination
The itinerary gave tourism professionals the opportunity to discover the full diversity of experiences available in the Guadeloupe Islands. The program included scuba diving, hiking in the tropical rainforest, and discovering an art gallery in Basse-Terre, an excursion to the Saintes archipelago, rum tasting in Marie-Galante, as well as several culinary stops in Grande-Terre.
Beyond discovering the destination, each experience allowed the agents to gather practical information for their future recommendations: choosing accommodations, planning itineraries, setting the pace of a stay, and selecting activities to recommend and book locally.
Organized in collaboration with Air Caraïbes and the Des Hôtels et Des Îles group, this fam trip reflects the Guadeloupe Islands Tourism Board’s commitment to helping tourism professionals gain a better understanding of the destination and sell it more effectively.
