Hands down the best military tour on the Island. Various sites covering a few hours of exploring. Guide is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Lucked out. A must for any enthusiast or history buff. Hands on with real artifacts and a side to the occupation of Jersey during WW2 few have gotten to see.

A definite must. Phil was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable. Makes a big difference being shown around and also told how things worked, how they were used.
I have been to see a few of the bunkers around the Island, but going with Phil was certainly a good idea. Can definitely recommend.
