Our Story
Glamour Luxury Destination Concierge is strategically headquartered in the tourism mecca of Montego Bay, Jamaica – one island with several amazing destinations. We provide limitless access to the many shades of the country, be it serene and scenic to vibrant and vivacious. Our vision to be the most successful DMC in the Caribbean region is centered around our continuous efforts to create a superior service with a unique personalized touch.
A pioneer in Destination Management Services in the Caribbean, Glamour was established in Jamaica over 30 years ago by a team of the island’s most successful hospitality and tourism professionals. Chairman and Director Roy Anderson and Co-Director Myrtle Dwyer established the company in 1987 in response to the demands of discerning clients, with the intent of providing the highest level of ground services in the Caribbean.
Originally known as Glamour Tours, the company re-branded to Glamour Destination Management Company in 2008 to reinforce its expansion of services and professionalism. Rachel Anderson, a graduate of economics from Davidson College, North Carolina, U.S.A., joined in 2007 as Director of Business Expansion & Development to assist in building onto this solid framework created by her parents. In celebration of thirty years of service excellence in the industry, the team, guided by CEO, Rachel Anderson embarked on a further rebranding programme defining its points of differentiation
Glamour began with the introduction of a programme of planning for meetings, incentives, and special interest groups as well as providing luxury ground handling services for their discriminating clients staying at the famous Half Moon in Rose Hall, Jamaica. Armed with the knowledge and success gained from that venture, Glamour Destination Management has partnered with top transportation companies with luxury vehicles and the best drivers and offers a wide range of services to international clients across the island of Jamaica.
