The Channel Islands, Jersey & Guernsey
10 days
10 Day Select Holiday
Lying just off the Normandy coast, the Channel Islands are a unique part of the British Isles, and you can explore two of these idyllic holiday havens on this captivating escape. Quaint winding streets, a beautiful coastline and history at every turn will enchant you, and our familiarisation tours will get your sightseeing off to a great start. Our Jersey base is St Helier, a vibrant town with a fascinating blend of British, French and Portuguese influences. Its paved, pedestrianised centre is home to classy shops and Victorian street markets. Wander around one of the pretty parks, watch the comings and goings at the harbour or take advantage of the lower taxes with some retail therapy. Hop on the bus to Jersey Lavender and amble through the sweet-scented gardens. Or head to Jersey Zoo – Gerald Durrell’s animal sanctuary where you can see some of the planet’s most endangered species. On Guernsey, we stay in St Peter Port, with its hidden alleys, tiered gardens, tapestry of architectural treasures and unhurried way of life. Visit La Valette Underground Military Museum which covers all aspects of Guernsey’s history or see the award winning restored Victorian Candie Gardens.
PLEASE NOTE: Price is per person and based on two people sharing a twin/double room. Single room supplements and upgrades are not included.
