When you come in to land at Guernsey Airport, you will notice that the island is more built-up than Jersey, but that does not mean it doesn't have lots of woodland, beaches and green places to roam.

Guernsey feels like Jersey did 20 years ago, before Jersey became over-run with big business and forgot the little person (and his business). Drinking at pubs is not permitted on a Sunday, so Guernsey's restaurants do a roaring trade on that day, not that they're not popular throughout the week too: there is a wealth of restaurants to choose from in Guernsey, many french-based in their cuisine and, of course, seafood is a speciality.

Hire a car, but don't forget Guernsey's 35 mph speed limit: this may seem slow, but on many of the small lanes, 35mph would be lethal. If you hire a bike, don't forget that Guernsey has many hills and the island isn't as small as you may think!

Guernsey can be reached by air or sea and, like Jersey, suffers from the cost factor - it may well be cheaper to go to Spain or Greece, but would you enjoy it as much as Guernsey? You'll have to go there to find out!
