I went on 8/25. I absolutely loved this hike from start to finish! The two guides were incredibly kind, welcoming, and down-to-earth. Hearing them talk about the land made it clear that they are the true, rightful masters of the Faroe Islands, filled with so much love and respect for their home. To make the trip even more magical, they brought along their adorable Scottish Border Collie. She was the star of the show, full of energy and proudly leading us all the way to the viewpoint like a perfect little captain.

The trail itself wasn't too long or exhausting, but the cliffside ocean views at the end were completely unreal—it felt like stepping into a dream. Even though it was a bit foggy during our trip, the scenery was still breathtakingly beautiful and 100% worth every step. I honestly cannot imagine a better hike than this. I took a photo with the two guides at the end and will cherish this memory forever. Highly, highly recommended!

I went on 8/23. I absolutely loved this tour! Instead of the long and exhausting hike from the far starting point, this tour gives you the best of both worlds. You get an amazing boat ride that takes you right through the sea arch, and then you get to land on the island for a short hike up to the absolute best viewpoint.There was more than enough time on land to take incredible photos and just soak in the breathtaking views.
Our guide, Eli, was exceptionally patient, friendly, and down-to-earth. He made the entire trip feel safe and welcoming. I highly recommend booking this tour if you want to see Drangarnir without the grueling trek. A perfect 10/10!

We had an amazing experience on our boat fishing tour with Niklas! 🎣

His boat is clean, modern, and very well maintained, which made us feel comfortable and safe throughout the trip.

And the fishing was incredible! The fish were literally biting almost immediately after we dropped the hooks. We ended up catching 30 over fish , the fish overflowed the basket—we couldn’t believe it! 😂🎣 We even took some of the fish back to our Airbnb and cooked them ourselves. They were incredibly fresh and delicious!

We were picked up on time and had a great fun-fact tour across most of the islands. Our tour guide and driver, Jens Petur was attentive and understanding; one time, making an unscheduled stop to resolve my question. We had a delightful lunch at an old cod-factory, recently renovated to a luxury restaurant. So much to see, so much to absorb. The country is beautiful, the roads are well kept, the people are friendly and the food is delicious.
Thank you Elsa Maria and & Jens Petur

A great way to visit Mykines island. Our host and guide Katrin took excellent care of the group. She’s very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. As far as these things go this is fairly child friendly, Katrin was great with kids and the birds provide frequent entertainment. If you’re worried this might be too long on the island, time really flew by. Overall a great experience.

This tour is a great way to explore Kalsoy island, Jogvan is an excellent host and guide. He can’t quite control the weather but does everything else with his guests in mind.

Une expérience incroyable.
Le capitaine du bateau était très expérimentée, on a fait des tours au milieu des rochers de plusieurs mètres de haut ! Je recommande

Amazing tour. So glad we booked it as we couldn't have seen everything in one day. We had information overload in the best way possible. Elsa was amazing. Nothing negative to say at all!

Truly a breathtaking tour, probably the highest-value tour offered by guide to faroe islands.
All guides were great. I enjoyed every single moment of it, and every single view.
There are a few things that should be improved, though:
- Communication is not the best, and one day we did not even receive the email with the pick-up time so everyone was at the pick-up point very early "just in case"
- The list of attractions on this website and for the breathtaking tour in particular is not accurate (we did not visit some of the listed items, the guides did not even know they were included, so it was not about the weather)
- Related to the previous point, before booking the tour, I asked via chat what was the difference in the attractions of one 6-day tour and one 7-day tour. The reason why I asked was that the number of attractions listed for the 6-day tour was much lower than for the 7-day tour, so either there was a mistake/inaccuracy, or the 6-day tour was better than the 7-day one. The customer service on the chat was unable to give me an answer and was also very rude in the replies, essentially refusing to provide an answer and claiming that everything is clearly stated on the website. So what I did was just book the 6-day tour. And after taking the tour, I can certify that the list of attractions is indeed not accurate.

So, the tour itself is great, because the guides are well prepared and the Faroe Islands are just amazing. The price is good enough for what you get. But the overall organization, communication, and customer support are not good, and the website lacks accuracy; all of this should be improved!

This trip was just amazing. Elsa Maria was a wonderful guide. All the stories and historytelling from way back in time, that she us gave during the day, caring for every single one of us, including everyone. All the stops during the day, one amazing spot after another. This is a must if you would like a guiding tour at the Faraoe Iclands. Absolutely recommandable.

We had a fantastic fishing trip! We caught around 30 fish, including one impressive cod over 90 cm long and about six years old. It was a great experience from start to finish. The tour guide was very friendly, helpful, and made the whole trip even more enjoyable. A memorable day on the water and highly recommended!

It was an amazing experience with Elsa Marie and all her knowledge about the Faroe Islands. It’s a great overview of the best places in the country. Of course, we sometimes don’t have as much time as we would like, but if you do this tour on your first day, you can go to the places you loved later on your trip.
We were also a very good group with so friendly people from a lot of different countries. Definitely a must-do !
