Driver was waiting for us at the airport. Super friendly and shared all kinds of information about the Faroe Islands on the drive. They even took us the scenic route to Torshavn and stopped to let our group take pictures. Highly recommend!

Great tour on 26th May 2026. Group of 6 from 5 different countries. Luckily for me all understood English.
Lots of stops and the weather was good ! Cold winds but mostly dry & clear.
The guide was great, lots of information, we saw so much. And stopped for a quick lunch at a very special restaurant. He arranged amazing fish soup which everyone enjoyed!

This tour gets top marks. A very skilled guide who met us as agreed in Klaksvik where the tour startet. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly, calm without stress, personal but not private.She had grown up here and had her family in the area. She gave us a good insight into the area/isles both geographically and culturally. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I really enjoyed this tour and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Faroe Islands. It was a fantastic way to see a wide range of beautiful places in just one day, and everything was very well organized. I felt like I got a great overview of the islands and experienced much more than I would have on my own.

What truly made the experience exceptional was our guide, Elsa. She was absolutely amazing, incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and easy to talk to. She shared many interesting insights about the islands, their culture, and daily life, and conversations with her were a real pleasure throughout the day.

Overall, a great experience. Thank you for such a memorable tour!

This tour was one of the highlights of our trip.
First we were taken on a boat(capacity cca 12 people) ride to Drangarnir which takes about 10 minutes. We disembark the small boat with the help of the guide and hiked up some slippery rocks to the viewpoint where we were left to admire Drangarnir for about 1 hour. After that, we went back on the boat and were taken on a tour around the Drangarnir formation which was my favourite part. After that, we were taken back to shore.
The guides didn't tell us anything about what we were seeing.
The experience was really nice, but too expensive for what it is, and that is why it gets a star less.

Our best experience in the Faroe Islands!! Niklas took myself, my wife, and my daughter out for a three-hour excursion that was absolutely wonderful. It was my 7-yr old daughter's first time ever fishing and we caught 19 fish within 30 minutes!! Cod and haddock. My daughter LOVED it!!! I really can't recommend Niklas enough! A must-do!

Our guide was a local. His car was great—and his driving was even better.

I have a tiny fear of heights. Looking at the cliffs far away, I thought, "No way. I'm not going up." But later, I changed my mind. I tried. I hiked to a higher spot.

The trip was packed with wonderful things to do. Our guide shared plenty of funny stories along the way.

I felt safe, relaxed, and truly enjoyed every moment.

Sometimes you just need to take that small step. 🌄

We didn’t plan to stay. But the weather forecast promised two sunny days ahead, so we decided to extend our trip.

Then, at noon, the wind suddenly howled. Rain poured down like a curtain. We thought, “Oh no…”

But soon, the rain stopped. The sun broke through the clouds, sprinkling golden light over the valley. Shadows and brightness danced across the hills—mysterious, magical, breathtaking.

We ended up visiting many hidden, wonderful places. Our guide? A blast! He was chatty, funny, full of energy, with a booming laugh. He told us wild stories that made the landscape come alive.

We felt happy and safe.

Totally worth it. A wonderful, unplanned surprise. 🌦️☀️🏞️

This sunset trip was perfectly designed. The mountain walk felt safe and easy, so we could just enjoy the magic.

We got lucky with the weather—clear skies, soft light. Nature’s beauty blew us away.

Our guide lives right on James Bond Island. He has a warm, happy family. Here’s a little secret: he might invite you to his home, where his wife cooks amazing food.

But no more spoilers!

All I’ll say is—it was a beautiful sunset journey. I wish I could do it all over again. 🌅

We visited Tórshavn recently and booked a walking tour with Jens — and it genuinely exceeded every expectation.

Jens is an exceptional guide. His knowledge of the Faroe Islands is deep and vivid, but what sets him apart is his ability to connect local history and culture to broader world affairs in a way that feels immediately relevant to his guests. We would never have been able to gain this rich an understanding of the islands on our own — that's not something you can get from a guidebook or a self-guided walk.

He goes the extra mile in every sense: thoughtful, warm, and clearly passionate about sharing his home with visitors. We came away feeling like we'd truly understood a place, not just passed through it.

Highly recommend Jens and this tour to anyone visiting Tórshavn.

Our guide used to be a PE teacher.
She was full of energy, warm.

She took our group to so many cool, famous spots. Along the way, we stopped at a famous café-restaurant. I loved their fish soup—so good!

She drove for hours, talked and explained, then hiked with us through mountain trails. Never seemed tired. Just kept going with a big smile.

We felt happy, full, and well taken care of. And the natural views? Simply stunning.

A trip to remember. 🏞️🐟🥣

Kayaking in the Faroe Islands was an incredible experience with absolutely stunning views. The scenery is breathtaking, and seeing the dramatic cliffs is unforgettable.

Be prepared for rapidly changing weather conditions, as the weather can shift quickly throughout the day. Also, some of the best viewpoints require navigating moderate to difficult terrain, so proper footwear and a reasonable fitness level are recommended.

A special thank you to Michael, who was extremely helpful and provided clear instructions and guidance for the experience. His knowledge and support made the adventure both enjoyable and safe. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique and memorable outdoor experience.

My wife and I really enjoyed this walking tour around Torshavn with Jens as our guide. Jens explained everything very well and had lots of interesting facts to share about this fascinating little capital city. The tour was very relaxed with not too much walking mostly around the old town.
