A British crown dependency, the sunny (well, relatively speaking) island of Guernsey boasts mild winters and warm summer months. From coasteering to kayaking, windsurfing to foodie foraging, outdoor enthusiasts of all types will love to roam this gorgeous Channel Island. A great base for fishing and angling trips, Guernsey also has plenty to see and do on the mainland. Explore Neolithic sites, stoic Castle Cornet, and ancient burial sites like Le Creux es Faies, a tomb that was once believed to be the gateway to a magical fairyland.

We were at the designated place,on time and waited with no tour arriving. In fact, other tour operators didn't even hear of this tour. We were there waiting one hour early and waited 45 minutes after the start time. Very unhappy and have contacted my credit card company for a refund on my money for the tour.

Besides little change in St Peter Port, except for the shops, the Medieval Church and Castle are a rare glimpse into a bygone age. The flowers along the way, in season, are a joy to see. The firing of the noon day gun in Castle Cornet by keepers in their Militia uniform, is a great opportunity for a photograph along with views of St Peter Port.
Inclusions: All Fees and Taxes
Exclusions: Snacks
Jan’s tour was well planned with many enlarged photos so we could see the places we were standing in, as they were during the war. The St Peters Port route gave attention to places mentioned in Potato Peel Pie, but put them in the wider context of Guernsey history. She drew on her own family history with photographs which showed the impact of world events on the individual. As an aside, as we walked she drew attention to other historical buildings. We were a large group of 16 but kept together well. Jan used a microphone so could be heard clearly at all times. She was highly organised and full of local knowledge.

During the 2nd World War Germany occupied The Channel Islands, this was the only part of the British Isles under German control. We tour round the beautiful coastlines showing the well-preserved fortifications built by German soldiers, and museums recreate those dark days with gripping exhibits. Winston Churchill was reluctant to lose control of the Crown’s oldest possession however the islands offered no strategic benefit to Britain. As a result, 25% of the island, including thousands of school children, were evacuated to the UK. This tour offers you amazing views and full history of how Guernsey played their part in the second world war.
Inclusions: Small Group Tour, Full coast tour and World War II tour
Exclusions: Food and Drink, Entrances fees

I have used other transportation services from Heathrow to my hotels before visiting London, but this has been the best so far! As soon as I arrived in the airport terminal my driver Paulo greeted me, it was so easy to locate him which was a relief. Expedia booked the incorrect travel dates that I was arriving and advised me to cancel and re book again myself online, I explained to the rep I was having difficulty locating a private transfer suitable for my needs especially with Covid still running rampant. Instead I decided to call City transfers myself and there staff changed everything that expedia screwed up. I didn't have to cancel re book anything as Expedia advised me to do. I even received a courtesy phone call the day before my departure to confirm my details again. I also received text message when my drivers had arrived. Extremely great service, definitely new fav for private transportation when visiting in the UK!

Our flight was piloted by Chris. He was very informative and polite and took us over the Isle of White, the beach, Weymouth. The actual experience was AMAZING!! Everywhere we went he told us about it and the experience itself was amazing. I highly recommend this as it is definitely an experience you will never forget, one reason for that is that he handed me the controls and I FLEW THE PLANE! Everything was nice, chilled, very safe and easy. Overall, couldn't have been better ????
