Jersey by Coach

JERSEY  BY COACH

 

1 – 7 September 2024

Sunday – Friday

7 Days

From £1099

 

The most southerly of the Channel Islands, Jersey has a feeling of home with a taste of the continent, so it is no wonder holidays in Jersey are so popular.  It has one of the best sunshine records in the British Isles and there is plenty to see and do on this compact Island.

 

The Island is a delightful blend of British and French culture with a pace of life that is refreshingly relaxed and easy going, superb sandy beaches gently warmed by the Gulf Stream, beautiful bays, countryside, castle, and museums.

DAY THREE – La Hougue Bie

After a leisurely morning we go and explore the La Hougue Bie where you will discover traces of life in Jersey from Neolithic times to the German Occupation of World War II. The Neolithic passage grave is one of the 10 oldest buildings in the world (4000–3500 BC). Its ancient chamber was once a sacred space for rituals and ceremonies and was built to align with the rising sun at spring and summer equinox. On top of the prehistoric La Hougue Bie mound is a 16th–century Christian chapel with spectacular views.

 

On site is replica Neolithic Longhouse where you can talk to the volunteers about life in the New Stone Age. You can also visit a German command bunker from World War II and follow the story of forced workers brought to Jersey by Organisation Todt.

DAY FIVE - Hamptonne Country Life Museum and Jersey War Tunnels

First today we visit the Hamptonne Country Life Museum, a picturesque country farm estate from the 15th century sharing the story of Jersey’s rural life.  We then discover a story you will never forget as we see the true story of life in Jersey during the German occupation. The hardship, the heartache, and the heroism, in the words of the people who were there.
