The Jamaica Tourist Board is encouraging Canadian travel advisors to experience Jamaica in person this fall during a series of immersive fam trips.
Agents can apply now for an opportunity to participate in one of five exclusive fams hosted from September to December 2023, each with a distinct theme or educational focus.
JTB guides will accompany each FAM trip to help showcase the island’s accommodations, attractions, transportation services and more. The JTB says agents will come away feeling inspired and empowered with critical first-hand knowledge to help sell the destination.
