Channel Islands England or France

nanynancye · 08-08-2008, 11:11 AM

I want to visit but don't know how to travel there, either from Paris or London. Any suggestions. Would like to go by public transportation or would it be better to rent a car? We can exchange a time share there so accommodations would be fine.
Thanks

I believe the best way is out of the UK. When we visited it was leaving the port city of Dover. A great little city.. Be sure to visit the Dover fortress overlooking the city its really worth the time.

I agree that it is easier from the UK. My Dad traveled there this summer and took the ferry from Weymouth. The ferry crossing is 3-4 hours and costs around 90 GBP. There are also daily flights from Gatwick and Heathrow and from other regional airports. Flights are much faster but a bit more expensive (around 140-150 GBP), but I really enjoy the ferry ride. Its part of the whole holiday experience! You can also fly from Paris but it costs around 200GBP.

yes, Dover is really a nice place and a busy port too.
