Eysturoy Island | The Photography Tour
Explore and Photograph the Highlights of Northern Streymoy and Eysturoy
Capture the most iconic sights of northern Streymoy Island and Eysturoy Island with your camera on this unforgettable photo tour. You’ll be guided by a local expert and photographer who will take you to the absolute best spots in this incredibly scenic part of the Faroe Islands.
Your guide will pick you up in the morning from Tórshavn — and if another pick-up location suits you better, no problem at all.
On the way to Gjógv, you’ll make a short detour uphill for a walk to the famous Hvíthamar Vantage Point. From here, you’ll experience the jaw-dropping panoramic view over Funningsfjørður Fjord, one of the most beautiful fjords in the country. Hvíthamar is perched along the ridge between Funningur and Mount Middagsfjall, offering a truly spectacular perspective.
Your next destination is the picturesque village of Gjógv, known for its natural gorge running through the centre of the village. You’ll walk along the edge of the ravine until you reach the end, where a breathtaking view opens up — the gorge, the village, and the surrounding mountains all in one shot. You may also encounter some of the rich birdlife that calls this area home.
On the return journey, you’ll stop along the mountain road to capture Funningur from above, where the iconic zigzagging road leads your eye toward the quaint village far below. It’s one of the most photogenic spots on the islands.
Taking the scenic route back, we’ll pause above Eiði to take in the legendary sea stacks Risin & Kellingin (The Giant and the Witch). Then we’ll continue to Fossá Waterfall, the tallest waterfall in the Faroe Islands. The final stop is the remote village of Tjørnuvík, where you can enjoy a quiet stroll along the dramatic black sand beach and a warm cup of tea or coffee.
At every stop, your guide will help you find the perfect spot to take the shot — the one you’ve probably seen in travel magazines and on social media. But nothing compares to seeing it with your own eyes (and lens!).
This tour is designed to make the most of the ever-changing Faroese light — expect to witness several seasons in one day! Your guide will provide inspiration and advice, but let you take your photos your own way.
So, what are you waiting for? Make the most of local knowledge and photography experience while visiting some of the Faroe Islands’ most breathtaking sites on Streymoy Island and Eysturoy Island.
