8 day Independent tour
Normandy is famous for its stunning steep coasts and seemingly endless beaches. You will follow the Grand Route 223 along the peninsula of Cherbourg. Many little coastal towns and French savoir vivre add to the charm of this tour.
Three days are spent on the Channel island of Jersey, famous for the unique mix of English and French culture. Large beaches, hidden coves, marvellous sand dunes and stunning cliffs are found on the shore of the island. The character varies according to season, with a wealth of ever changing colours.
