Jersey’s Joie De Vivre
Day 1 London – St Helier
Titan’s VIP Home Departure Service® transports you from your front door to London Gatwick Airport and your direct, scheduled British Airways flight to Jersey. On arrival, you will be transferred the short distance to St Helier and the Pomme D’Or Hotel.
Day 2 Bouley Bay – Gorey
We depart on a full day of exploration, firstly arriving at Bouley Bay. Home of the legendary Black Dog, the myth created by smugglers to keep local folk away from the Bay and their clandestine activities. We then continue to Gorey with its castle dating back to the early 13th century and the reign of King John. We have time to discover Gorey harbour before our journey back along the coast to our hotel.
Day 3 St Helier
You are at leisure today so why not search out some of the numerous attractions in and around St Helier? Perhaps join in with a town or coastal guided walk or drop by at the Central Market with its domed glass roof, and throw a coin into the 15ft tiered fountain for good luck. Jersey’s Tourism Office offers a wealth of ideas and can be found in Liberation Square. A few steps from here is the New North Quay, where you will fi nd the Maritime Museum and the Occupation Tapestry Museum. There are several worthy gardens and parks to enjoy including the Howard Davis Park and Les Jardins de la Mer, complete with a water maze, illuminated at night.
Day 4 Jersey Lavender Farm
This morning we have included a half-day excursion to Jersey Lavender Farm. Although the Lavender fields may not be in bloom when you visit, you will be taken on a guided tour and learn about everything from how the farm started, to the filling and labelling of bottles.
Please note: The lavender fields usually begin to show their colour from late May and are harvested from late June to early August.
Day 5 St Brelade’s Bay – St Mary
We embark on our second full day exploration of the island. Our first stop is St Matthew’s Church, famous for the glasswork on the font, altar and cross, created by Rene Lalique of Paris and thought to be his greatest achievement. We then call in at the Eric Young Orchid Foundation before heading for the North coast, stopping at the Jersey Pearl Centre. Following time here we will make a photo stop at Corbiere Lighthouse on our way to La Mare Vineyard for wine tasting and afternoon tea before we return to St Helier.
Days 6-7 St Helier
Further time to relax and enjoy this lovely island to perhaps visit the world famous Jersey Zoo and Wildlife Conservation Centre. Why not explore St Aubin’s Old Harbour, built in 1675. You can still see many of the original merchant’s houses when strolling through the inner harbour. As well as many of the high street stores that feature in towns and cities in the UK, Jersey boasts a variety of small boutiques, antique shops and family run businesses. Further afield, ferry trips to France may also be a consideration (passport required). Whatever your interests, there is something for everyone on this wonderful little island.
Day 8 St Helier – London
Today we bid farewell to St Helier and depart for Jersey Airport and your scheduled British Airways flight to London Gatwick Airport, where our staff will greet and transfer you to Titan transport for your journey home to your own front door.
