Group Travel Tour Operator and DMC for the Channel Islands
Channel Island Explorer
This Channel Islands Tour gives an opportunity to discover the neighbouring islands of Jersey and Guernsey. The warm climate may be the same on both islands, but the way of life is totally different.
Jersey, the popular holiday destination, is an island of beautiful landscapes, with sandy beaches and towering cliffs. Not only does Jersey offer a variety of outdoor adventures but there is also a wealth of sites to discover including La Mare Wine Estate and the Jersey War Tunnels. In Guernsey you can discover St Peter’s Port, a busy port with cobbled streets and one of Europe’s prettiest harbour towns, with views out to Castle Cornet and neighbouring islands.
