Welcome to Faroe Islands

Jogvan Saved the Day — and Made It Unforgettable.

I nearly missed out on one of the most magical experiences of my entire Faroe Islands trip — and it would have been entirely my own fault. I missed the ferry, and with it, what I thought was my only shot at the tour. But Jogvan refused to let the day be a loss.

He worked with me patiently and creatively, going well above and beyond what any guide or operator would be expected to do, problem-solving on the fly to rearrange logistics and make the experience happen.

His warmth, local knowledge, and sheer determination to make things work turned what could have been a frustrating disaster into one of the highlights of my trip.

If you’re visiting the Faroes and have the chance to work with Jogvan, don’t hesitate for a second. And if things go sideways? That’s exactly when you’ll see what makes him exceptional.

I had a wonderful experience on my tour. Elsa Maria was a wealth of information and anecdotes. It is always a treat to learn about a place from a local, and she has deep roots and a deep affection for her country. I initially thought I could use public transportation to see many of the sites I wished to see. This is not possible. The bus system is not for tourists, but geared for school and work hours. I was not comfortable renting a car due to the very narrow, twisty and turny roads (no shoulders and no guard rails). So I was very glad I booked this day tour to see many of the places on my wish list! We had beautiful weather, a great group of people, a comfortable van, lots of stops for photos and to stretch your legs, and we covered a vast amount of the islands. I definitely recommend this tour!

We were lucky enough to explore the beautiful Northern Islands with Elsa Maria. We greatly appreciated her energy, her kindness, and her knowledge, which made our tour full of fun and learning.

We had an amazing tour! Elsa Maria was amazing! I can’t believe how much beauty we saw in one day. I am just so in awe of this place, and she made the experience even more fulfilling. thank you!

Had a great experience. The crew was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this tour.

Great tour with fabulous photo ops!

This was a fabulous tour and we were lucky enough to see many puffins! The foul weather suit provided for the boat ride kept us warm and dry. Loved it!

We had a magical time in the Faroe Islands celebrating Scott's 60th birthday! Hogni has done an amazing job crafting the itinerary and the daily suggestions with timeline were very helpful!

I took this tour on my first day in the Faroes. It was a nice way to get oriented to the city and to hear about the culture and history. Our guide was informative and answered all our questions. I found that it was a nice start to my four days on the islands and I was able to clarify questions I had about driving or other things I had read before getting to far into my trip. I would recommend as a good intro into the Faroes.

This tour was wonderful. The men who helped us on and off the boats and the boat captain were all very helpful and very kind. The weather was a windy and the seas were a little rough on our tour, but the gentlemen were excellent with helping us navigate the landings and keeping everyone safe on land. I suffer from motion sickness but had no issues with this tour. The inlet waters didn't bother me and the boat ride was less than 15 minutes. Even with choppy seas I did okay, so I hope that helps others who might have reservations about it. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to see the sea arch from the land (great picture opportunities from many different viewpoints) and the sea. We were able to drive through the arch and around the bottom of the cliff on our tour.

This tour was excellent. The guide met us right at the ferry and was very helpful and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about the different islands and the culture of the Faroes. The bus was comfortable and the drive was scenic. The hike was very enjoyable, and we had wonderful views all along the way. The pace of the hike was manageable for myself (43 year old) and my mother (71 year old), and there was plenty of time at the lighthouse for walking around and exploring. It was a very easy and enjoyable day.

Very nice guy, good tour, good explanation. Room to ask questions. I don't drink that much alcohol and I never tried wodka. But I really liked the story behind the subsea wodka and it tastes amazing! You can buy the drinks also if you book a tour, else you are not allowed by law.

The views of the sea stacks were spectacular. The two guides were both exceptional. They provided a lot of local knowledge and as a result it was a pleasure to walk with them. They both emphasized safety near the cliffs and ensured that all of the group was able to do the hike.

Hans transformed a regular airport transfer from Vagar to Torshavn into a scenic and informative sightseeing excursion regarding culture, geography, economy and history. On time, friendly and polite. Modern and comfortable car. Highly recommendable

Great guides and great tour! Really interesting facts and good when the boat goes fast.
