Tour Reviews
Reviews for Beautiful Jersey
Just wanted to let you know we all arrived back today, having had a really good holiday in Jersey. Everything about the hotel was good, especially the food and the staff were all very helpful and skilled. Our guide was very good and knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with. The coach driver also did a good job. Take care and talk soon.
