Join this small-group tour to the picturesque Northern Islands, renowned for their towering mountains and verdant valleys. Prepare for an ever-changing panorama as you traverse roads winding around, beneath, and amidst majestic peaks in all direction.

This tour includes stops at the Faroe Islands' most well-known fishing town, deserted villages, and a leisurely stroll through the northernmost settlement. Everything starts in the morning with pickup in the capital, Tórshavn in Streymoy Island.

Your adventure leads you through the unique Eysturoy Tunnel adorned with local artwork. The sub-sea tunnel features the world's first underwater roundabout! A brief pause in Leirvík offers insights into Viking lore, avalanches, and abandoned settlements before the voyage continues through the Northern Isles.

In Klaksvík, the fishing industry's vitality is palpable, with trawlers bobbing in the harbour amidst rumbling mountains. The town, nestled around a bay and climbing steep mountainsides, also boasts a vibrant cultural scene and a renowned brewery.

Crossing a causeway and narrow tunnel brings you to Kunoy Island, where colourful houses line babbling streams amidst towering mountains. This village's rich history and stunning vistas make for a captivating visit.

Exploring Múli reveals abandoned buildings used in the first and only local crime series, amid breathtaking natural scenery. This place is something else.

Viðareiði offers panoramic views of neighbouring islands and towering cliffs. This historic village on Viðoy Island, birthplace of Faroese literary figure Christian Matras, holds a rich maritime legacy, symbolised by a church silver gift from the British government in gratitude for a heroic rescue.

Immerse yourself in the beauty and heritage of the Faroe Islands' northern treasures on this unforgettable small-group tour. Your local tour guide will make sure this day will be a highlight of your time in the Faroe Islands.
