Immersive 6 Hour Vestmanna Sea Cliffs & Viking Village Tour

Witness the fascinating Bird Cliffs in Vestmanna. You will sail in a boat to the Vestmannabjørgini cliffs and caves. Your local tour guide will pick you up in Tórshavn in the morning and then head north in a quality van to the village Vestmanna.

The boat to the Bird Cliffs in Vestmanna only sails during the summer month. You are guaranteed lots of stunning sights.

From the harbour in the amphitheatrical village Vestmanna, you will sail in a local boat to a place out of this world. Experience narrow straits, deep grottoes and almost 700-metre (2296 feet) high cliffs soaring up from the ocean. This is an unbelievable sight. Even though your tour guide has seen this sight many times before, you will hear on his voice how impressed he is by scenery.

Whilst exploring the Vestmanna bird cliffs, you might be lucky to get a glimpse of the most adorable puffins and you will definitely see colonies of other birds such as razorbills and guillemots. The Atlantic puffin spend the summer in the Faroe Islands.

The rich birdlife will be only few metres away from you. The birds are nesting in rocky crevices and under rock slabs so you will have the chance to get some great photos. It is utterly incredible to see all the birds thriving on these cliffs by the Atlantic Ocean. The whole area is untouched and as unspoiled as it can be.

Standing on board the boat looking at the sheer cliffs and feeling the ocean around you is an incredible experience. This is the reason why Vestmanna Bird Cliffs are one of travellers’ favourite attractions in the Faroe Islands. This is a boat tour of a lifetime. You will sail for around two hours. 

On your way back to Tórshavn, you will stop in the village of Kvívík nestled in stunning surroundings. When on your way from Kvívík to Vestmanna, you will pass the igloos in the middle of nature.

There is so much beauty on this tour. Many people will find themselves speechless.
