Easy to get to by bus from St Helier Liberation Bus Station. The #28 (destination Jersey War Tunnels) takes 15-minutes. Avoiding the morning crowds I got a bus from there at 1315 hrs, and back at 1550 hrs. This allowed me plenty of time to look around the tunnels, plus have coffee & cake in the cafe (two and a bit hours), before it was time to leave. The tunnels are well worth a visit. Some of the information panels and accounts are quite thought provoking... should you evacuate, or stay and face life under a German occupation army? How do you manage day-to-day life and interact with those occupiers? You may not find a depth of information in the displays (and it would be too cumbersome for the museum to try), but there is sufficient here to make you want to go and read up on the subject if that is something that interests you. At the very least you'll come away from here with an appreciation of the challenges the islanders faced during the war, and how, perhaps, things weren't always as clear cut as you may presume.

Sadly, I was quite disappointed in the Jersey War Tunnels. The history there mainly concentrated on the German Occupation & their weapons & the day to day life of them, all 11,500 of them, with some accounts of the local population. I came away wanting much more info on "how the locals felt, how they coped, photos of them, and how they managed during the German occupation of their homeland. (Later we visited The Channel Islands Military Museum in St Ouen & that had numerous accounts of local people and vast photographic accounts of the Islanders, which for me, was what I really wanted to know about & was much better that the Tunnels experience). The tunnels were interesting and well laid out, with lots of memorabilia and it was harrowing to hear that the local, and shipped in POW's, built the tunnels over a period of 4-5yrs. There were, some Islanders accounts and D-Day soldier accounts, but I wanted much more about "our lads & lasses & the Island families". We took around 2 hrs to go around the tunnels. Afterwards we went to the cafe and had a cream tea, which was lovely as the scone was warm. End note ... add more about the local population that went through hell, whilst Jersey was occupied. I loved the liberation section though.

Great experience. You have audio to guide you if you request, or you can read yourself. It is very cold inside, on sunny day you will be ok, but winter weather i would recommend something cosy to wear. There are some videos too. It should take 1.5 to 2hrs

Great fun and sad at the same time. Some great exhibits there. I won't spoil it for you. We went on a bank holiday Monday when it opened it was empty but toilets gift shop and a cafe great time. I had my son with me so will go back again that for sure. Defo a must thing to do if your on the island for sure

Definitely a must visit to anyone visiting the island. Has so much history to it, and learning about the islands occupation during the war was inspiring, even emotional at times. Plan to spend anywhere from 2-4 hours here as there’s a lot to read and see inside, I made sure to read everything as I really enjoyed it. There are toilets on site with a lovely gift shop and cafe. Me and my partner purchased many gifts in the gift shop and had a lovely brunch in the cafe, one of the best sausage sandwiches I’ve ever had! It is also a great place to visit on a rainy day!! Well recommended to anyone, not just history buffs!
