Coach Tours
To see Jersey by coach is one of the fastest ways to experience the essentials of the island. Half a day will give you a glimpse of the multi-facetted character of Jersey, a full day more opportunities to visit a castle or a garden and see some beaches and majestic coastlines.

All our guides are qualified to guide on coaches and will enliven a tour with interesting stories beyond the mere facts and figures. Find a Guide

Our guides will reveal the little secrets behind the facades of Jersey's main commercial and cultural centre. They take you through quiet lanes and into the buzzing market, make visits to museums and Elizabeth Castle memorable experiences.

Cycling / Kayaking Tours
It can be as easy or as challenging as you wish it to be … e-bikes make life pleasant on the hills into Jersey's interior, whilst a guide will show you the rural beauty. On the tidal waters of the coast the professional kayaking guides will take you to enjoy the serenity of calm waters and dramatic coastlines.

Birding Tours
The sea around Jersey, the coastal intertidal areas, the marshes and heathland are some of the most attractive habitats for bird lovers. JTGA guides know the right time of the day and the perfect spot to reward you for taking your binoculars.

Military History Tours
Only 12 miles from France, though politically connected to the United Kingdom – this unusual situation presented Jersey with a multitude of defensive buildings until WWII. Specialist guides will be able to take you back into war time history and behind usually closed doors.
