I was wondering how possible it is to explore the Island by bus and also if there were any recommendations on what to see/how to do it?

There's quite a handy little site on Liberty Bus:

For me, the best attractions were St Aubin, St Brelade, the War Tunnels, The Zoo (Durrell), some of the Northern coves and possible one of the castles (Elizabeth Castle has the amphibious craft going over, although I thought Montorgueil was more interesting - and there's Jersey Pottery out that way if you want the full coach trip experience).
Jersey and Guernsey together in a day seems ambitious. You'd drive very slowly round congested roads and not see much (particularly on Guernsey, where it's impossible to see anything unless you get off the narrow, crowded main roads, which means ditching the car - and I'd argue the best thing in Guernsey is Sark, anyway...)

And pretty soon you might need to add the Democratic Peoples Republic of North Islington
