About us

Go Guernsey Land & Sea is an independent, family run outdoor activity company owned by Phil and Trudy Le Poidevin. It started life as an already existing cycle hire company that Phil took over in 2015. As it was then and still is now, the island’s largest supplier of hire bikes. Along came 2017 when Phil launched Go Guernsey Land & Sea providing sea-based activities. They have worked hard at making their customers happy, safe and take away a good experience and memories of Guernsey.

Phil and Trudy both grew up in Guernsey exploring and experiencing it for themselves whilst learning about the unique environment, wildlife and flora we have here along with some great hidden spots and adventures along the way. After much traveling themselves, they understand that doing their best to provide an eco-friendly and socially aware business whilst you make the most of your time in Guernsey is what it’s all about. Ethics and responsible tourism is the key to keeping our island sustainable, Phil and Trudy share an interest in La Societe Guernesiaise (a local version of The National Trust) and The Ramsar Convention (for the conservation and sustainable use of wetlands) and will do what they can to work with these and any other individuals, charities or businesses to ensure Guernsey is a happy and healthy place!!!!

For cycle hire we offer islandwide free delivery 7 days a week for all your bike hire requirements or are very happy to answer any questions you make have regarding hire or our equipment, A great way of exploring the heart of Guernsey, it’s countryside, people and places is by bike, at your own pace, so easy to hop on and off along the way!!

“This outdoor activities provider has been inspected and it’s safety and risk management systems scrutinised as if it had been subject to the Adventure Activities Licensing Authority (AALA) requirements as prescribed by the UK Health & Safety Executive.  HSE (Health & Safety Executive) Guernsey does not operate a licensing scheme for local adventure activity providers but through inspection by a specialist company, ensure that the equivalent standards of safety are maintained.”  John Colley, Health and Safety Inspector, States of Guernsey.

As for the future, we’re interested in slowly growing our business whilst never compromising on quality and service.  We reinvest yearly in our stock so we can be confident and take pride in our services.  We take time out to help with local environmental, wildlife and other charities and plan to do more of this when time allows.  The most important thing to us is to give a great experience and to have fun in our work whilst doing that!!
