Welcome to Faroe Islands

The Faroe Islands is an astounding place to visit. The Lake Sørvágsvatn hike is one of the best hikes in the world, for sure... do not miss it. The fee to do the hike is high - but just pay it and don't get mad. For us, it was muddy and near the end quite challenging. But I was struggling with a foot problem and was still able to do it.

This is a self-drive tour, so you are responsible to set your itinerary. Just driving around to the different villages is completely entertaining. The tunnels are an experience not to be missed. Remember that the weather is changeable. We went in late September and knew we could have bad weather. We added an extra day to accommodate for this. We had one day of astoundingly great weather - when we did the Lake Sørvágsvatn hike. Our flight in was diverted to Copenhagen so we lost a half day there, and one other day rained solidly for most of the day. But we still did everything except the boat tour. Even with this weather, the islands are wonderful.

Restaurants are extremely expensive. They may have limited hours or require reservations. This dissuaded us from eating out - which works for us. There are essentially no tourist shops anywhere. You might find a T-shirt, magnet, or postcard. The primary shopping is yarn, sewing equipment, and wool sweaters/attire.

Hogni is extremely responsive and will respond to you at any time... for example, when we were diverted to Copenhagen late in the evening and had to make him aware that we would be a day late. He arranged everything for us so all we had to focus on was what we wanted to see. If you don't want to do the research for a car, boat tour, or hotel yourself - trust him. He knows.

This is a bucket list destination - do it before it becomes over-touristed. At the moment most villages have a clean, well-stocked, WC with a flush toilet and sometimes they are even heated. Too many disrespectful tourists will change that.

Fuldstændig fantastisk tur.
Oversteg alle mine forventninger.
Meget venlig og engageret guide med spændende fortællinger, både personlige og historiske. Ganske særligt at det var en lille gruppe med 5 nationaliteter + færøsk guide
Guiden havde god forståelse for gruppen og gav sig god tid på de forskellige lokationer.
Måske jeg kommer til at blokke en af de andre ture næste gang 🤗

Wunderschön, auch wenn wir nicht die eigentliche Tour fahren konnten. Wir wurden vorab über das raue Meer, die Gefahren des Atlantiks informiert und dass die Fahrt statt dessen in südlicher Richtung zwischen den Inseln stattfinden sollte. Und was war das für eine schöne Zeit, die sich neu ergebenden Eindrücke der Landschaft und Klippen, die man sonst nur vom Land aus sehen kann. Beeindruckend, faszinierend, unglaublich schön!

Tour muy eficiente y auténtico que cubre mucho en poco tiempo, pero sin sentirte agobiado. La guía es local de Feroe, ella comparte historias reales de los pueblos visitados y hace que el tour se sienta + cercano, también hizo algunas paradas improvisadas para ver animales junto a los caminos, esa parte ha sido de mis favoritas. Recomendado si te gusta aprovechar el tiempo y además conocer la cultura local.

Superb tour where we saw most of Faroe, with breathtaking landscape. Johan has been able to let us discover his country, the poeple, the villages and the nature beauties, all this in a very eenjoyable and confortable way despite the rain and cold wind of September.
I just has a fantastic day.

I recently completed the three-day tour package, and it exceeded every expectation. Keeping the group small—just four of us, in our case—made the entire experience feel personal, flexible, and unhurried.

Our guide, Anita, was exceptional. Having grown up on the islands, she offered far more than typical sightseeing commentary. Alongside the iconic landscapes, she shared genuine, vivid insights into what daily life in the Faroes is actually like, grounding the dramatic scenery in local culture and history.

When our scheduled day trip to Suðuroy was disrupted by an out-of-commission ferry, the team handled it seamlessly. While I was initially disappointed, Anita quickly pivoted to an alternative itinerary that unexpectedly became one of the absolute highlights of the entire trip. Her local knowledge and adaptability turned a potential setback into an unforgettable day.

Me and my friend joined the trip "see it all" on 23th Aug. In the beginning, I did not expect a one-day-tour could make the trip in Faroe Islands more fabulous. However, I ater found out that we visited most of the classic checkpoints on the main islands. Our tour guide Elsa introduced a lot about Faroe Islands, its culture, its people and its social life, which really broadened my knowledge. We received a short video of the trip later and it made me feel warm, as the memory on that day will always remain exclusive.

My friend and I had an amazing time fishing. She doesn’t fish and the captain was very helpful showing her what to do. We caught 5 cod!

This is the second day tour i booked and enjoyed it very much. The weather was great and our guide Melissa and her dog Minnie makes the trip even better. All the places we visited were really amazing including the lunch spot with a view. Thanks for making my trip to the faroes memorable!

Due to the unpredictable weather in the Faroe Islands, the tour was rescheduled twice. The guide, Tummas, was incredibly professional and patient. The wait was entirely worth it, the 4-hour hike and the sunset views were absolutely sensational and exceeded all expectations! Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting.

Very nice trip - we enjoyed it a lot.
It should be noted that due to stormy sea conditions, the trip was not going to the north but rather going to the south to the Trollkonufingur - it was a kind of surprise for us (it is not mentioned as an option). Still, it was a wonderful trip!

We throughly enjoyed this tour and absolutely loved Faroe Islands. The communication was great and clear. The itinerary was well paced and hit the highlights of Faroe Islands. We had time to add in some hikes. The boat tour was beyond what we expected. The captain took us to a waterfall, told us some information about the locals, and we saw some seals and the smallest whale. The recommended restaurants are great. The only correction need to made is: The seafood and takeaway is permanently closed. Some of the hikes you have to pay and some only take cash. It would be nice to have these information on the itinerary. All in all, we are very happy with the tour and glad we came to beautiful Faroe.

A great day trip with a small group and a friendly guide & her little dog. Everything was perfect, thank you!

I truly enjoyed this unique experience. Gunnar was a knowledgeable guide and provided insight and very interesting information. The hike was excellent, the boat trip was smooth and relaxing. Thank you!

I booked this tour for the day after my partner and I arrived in the Faroe Islands. We were navigating severe jetlag but still wanted some light activity on our first day in Torshavn without too much logistic stress, and Jens' hiking beer tour was perfect! Jens was an excellent communicator and sent clear directions on where and when to meet, as well as what to wear. As we traveled to the trailhead, he was very helpful in explaining the bus system and how to utilize it to get around the Islands. On the trail, Jens was super easy to talk to and we had a great time hiking as well as chatting about Faroese culture, the logistics of Faroese government, and Faroese history. The hike, of course, was beautiful, complete with excellent views (weather dependent) and even a cow sighting! Jens was able to accommodate by alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages as well as Faroese snacks for the hike, which made the time go by easily. All in all, if you're looking for an introduction to the Faroe Islands, Jens is your man! Takk fyri, Jens!
