Accompanied by a local guide, experience three of the main Channel Islands – Guernsey, Sark and Jersey.
This six-night expert guided tour presents the ideal opportunity to see some of the Channel Islands’ greatest hits, meeting their people and taking in the distinctive history, scenery, culture and food of this uniquely Gallic-influenced archipelago tucked into the lee of Normandy and Brittany.
Begin with the island of Guernsey, home to vast beaches, dramatic sea cliffs and hidden coves, as well as a medieval castle and poignant WW2 occupation history. Cross the water to the serene island of Sark, unsullied by much of modern life – so distinctive it has its own UN country code! Then it’s time for a short aerial hop to Jersey, boasting its own layers of wonderful history, dramatic landscapes and a character all its own.
With a maximum of 15 passengers per group, you can be sure of highly personal service from your knowledgeable, local tour leader on this carefully-designed McKinlay Kidd small group tour. Early booking is strongly advised as places are strictly limited.
