Outstanding 7 Hour "See It All" Faroe Islands Tour
Fall in love with the Faroe Islands, home to astonishing natural beauty. This legendary small-group tour will let you explore the best of the Faroe Islands in one day. See as much as possible of this undiscovered corner of the world. With an experienced tour guide with a strong passion for seaside views and waterfalls, you are in good company.
Your life-long native Faroe Islands tour guide has the local knowledge and will make sure that you get the most out of your time around the Faroe Islands. So this is what awaits you.
You will be picked up in the morning at your accommodation in Tórshavn (including the suburbs Argir and Hoyvík) on Streymoy Island. Just let the tour guide know where you are staying once you book the tour.
Now, you will hit the road and head straight to Eysturoy Island. Your tour guide will take you along windswept mountains and all the way to the natural gorge in Gjógv, where you can enjoy the crashing waves. The peaceful village Gjógv is waiting for you to be discovered.
Now, you will head to the tranquil hideaway Saksun. This lovely little village is tucked away in lush grass on the westside of Streymoy island. The village faces an incredible view of a hidden tidal lagoon.
You will now glide silently along the well-kept roads in the Faroe Islands and stop by the captivating Fossá Waterfall. Enjoy the power of nature for a while as you stand next to the crashing water beside this waterfall that drops in two levels.
After this experience, you will head to the remote settlement Tjørnuvík nestled in unmatched natural beauty. Travellers say this hidden valley feels like reclaiming nature.
There will be a stop at a restaurant for lunch. You can buy yourself something at the restaurant (no restaurant visit on Tuesdays).
Now you will get to the famed Vágar Island. Drive along the breathtakingly beautiful shoreline to the turf-roofed village Bøur. The view that you will encounter is otherworldly. You will have a great view of Tindhólmur islet and the famous sea arch Drangarnir.
Your final stop is the spectacular natural wonder in the small village Gásadalur. Here you will experience Múlafossur waterfall perched on the very edge and from where it plunges into the ocean. The scenery is so naturally and is the perfect place to recharge in nature.
Are you ready for a full-day of magical landscapes and seascapes? This will be one of the most incredible days of your life. Check availability by choosing a date.

This was an amazing tour! Our guides, Elsa and Jens, were fantastic in explaining the culture, history, and nature of the Faroe Islands. They were insightful and passionate about their country. Would highly recommend for a short trip or the start of a longer one.

Excellent full day trip experiencing the Faroes scenery and culture.
Ideally, go for day with lunch in cafe available as worthwhile for the best of Faroe seafood and rhubarb juice!

This tour is THE ABSOLUTE BEST introduction to the beauty and wonder of the Faroe Islands! The foundation that it gives you is invaluable. On a vacation *full* of highlights, this tour, and our tour guides Maria and Petur, were as good as it gets! They gave us knowledge, information and insights that we were able to use and appreciate throughout our time in the Faroes – as well as stories to remember, and to share with our Faroe Islands-curious families and friends back home. There really could not have been a more perfect way to spend our first day in the Faroe Islands! Maria and Petur were informative, interesting and honestly, just a lot of fun to spend the day with! Their deep love of their country is unmistakable – and it’s contagious too! They truly brought Faroese history, culture and customs to life for each and every one of us lucky enough to be on the tour! Don’t miss this!

The tour was expertly handled by Elsa Maria. She arrived promptly and worked very hard to give us -and three others -the best experience , We saw a tremendous amount in a jam-packed day. She has a fund of knowledge which she imparted with a light touch. Her choice of lunch venue was excellent as were her treats and snacks.
We would strongly recommend this tour

Det var en riktigt intressant tur runt hela Färöarna. Elsa är en fantastisk guide och chaufför med både humor och kunskap. Jag fick se mycket vackra platser och det känns som om jag fick se allt det bästa på Färöarna. Turen rekommenderas varmt.

I was in Holiday with my kids, and only had a couple of days in the Faroe Islands, I needed a tour that would cover most of everything we had to see. This for sure was the tour if you need to make it an all you can see in a day…, it turned out to be a little longer than the brochure mentioned, however, it went by so fast, because Elsa and her brother were so professional, and had so much knowledge about everything, we got to stop at so many locations to get amazing pictures. I definitely recommend taking this tour with them!!!

In early September 2025, I visited the Faroe Islands for the first time, joining a group of six people guided by Elsa Maria. Elsa is a professional local tour guide and a skilled driver. She took us on a tour of some of the Faroe Islands’ most significant and scenic spots. With her excellent service, we thoroughly enjoyed the panoramic views while learning about the local customs, culture, and delicious local cuisine. It was an impressive and unforgettable experience that I highly recommend if you plan to visit the Faroe Islands.

Fantastic tour with Jens Petur and Elsa Maria sharing the sights and the stories of these wonderful islands. Hope to come back again soon and will definitely take another tour with them when I do.

This was an amazing day trip! Elsa Maria was fantastic, as was her brother. The are both so knowledgeable, friendly and made the day very enjoyable. There was so much packed in and I really felt like I saw a lot more of the Faroes on this tour, than I would have done on my own. I would highly recommend. Thanks for a great experience!

Our guide was very efficient, punctual, knowledgable, and friendly. Saw a lot with Jens during the day, had enough time to photograph and enjoy the scenery, learn about the local landscape and culture. Worth the money.

Outstanding tour and definitely one of the best, if not the best guided tour I have taken over the years in a multitude of countries around the globe.
Rode with Elsa Maria and her dialog was interesting and thorough. Elsa was excellent at keeping the group on schedule so that all scheduled stops could be included. Questions asked were answered, if not immediately when asked then at an upcoming stop when the information was most useful.
The addition of light snacks, chocolate biscuits and sweets with coffee and tea were a nice surprise. The restaurant we stopped at for lunch had a somewhat limited menu but the items we chose were freshly prepared and delicious.
I am enjoying all the pictures we took during the tour. We were granted a day with mostly clear bright and sunny skies but be prepared for overcast and showers too. As Elsa Maria said, weather in the Faroes is unpredictable … “the land of maybe”.
Excellent … 10 stars !

Amazing tour! A must do when visiting the Faroe Islands! Thank you Elsa!
Richard Albert –
“Outstanding” accurately describes it! It was a phenomenal day. Our guides, Jens Petur and Elsa, were absolutely fabulous. I rode with Jens Petur, who was incredibly warm and engaging. There were no questions on the Faroes that he could not answer — history, politics, economy, business, topography, culture, society, cuisine — all with tremendous knowledge, passion and pride, with lots of stories woven in to support the narrative and add a personal touch.
Logistically it was impeccable. A full day, with a meticulously planned, comprehensive route. The two groups were small enough to integrate and coordinate every step along the way, and allowed a nice camaraderie to develop. Also very much appreciated the snacks that Elsa shared with us. The restaurant that we stopped at for lunch was amazing. And the scenery spoke for itself. Breathtaking.
I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Especially for a brief visit to the Faroe Islands, you will find no better way to see as much of the country as possible in a single day, without ever feeling rushed, overwhelmed, short-changed, or unsafe. And you couldn’t ask for two better hosts than Jens Peter and Elsa. Overall, an unforgettable experience!
Nola and Nick Herden –
What a wonderful day! Elsa made the day something we will never forget. Her and her brother were very knowledgeable and they went out of their way to make the day an unforgettable experience
Tina Currie –
My husband and I had a wonderfully informative and comprehensive tour with Jens! We really appreciated his vast local knowledge (and skilful driving), showing us the history, culture and absolutely beautiful landscapes of the Faroe Islands.
We are so glad we took the all day tour, there is just so much to see! And we really enjoyed our lunch at Jens’ recommendation.
We are already talking about coming back for a longer visit, for some hiking and exploring.
Thank you so much for a stand out day during our cruise!

I had the most fantastic day on this trip! From the punctual pick-up to the small group size, spotless car, and awe-inspiring scenery, everything was perfectly organized.
Our guides, Elsa Maria and Jens Petur, were outstanding. They shared rich insights into the Faroe Islands’ history, culture, and everyday life, blending in personal stories that made the experience feel truly authentic. It was less like being on a tour and more like being warmly welcomed into their community.
We enjoyed a delicious lunch at a charming local restaurant, and the thoughtful gesture of homemade snacks, tea, and coffee from Elsa Maria made the day even more memorable.
Both guides were knowledgeable, passionate, and wonderfully engaging. This tour exceeded all expectations, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. A heartfelt thank you to Elsa Maria and Jens Petur for an unforgettable experience!
