Daily itinerary

Day 1:  Option from Denmark: departure of flight to the Faroe Islands from Copenhagen at 12:25, arriving at Vágar airport at 13:40.

Option from Iceland: departing at 09:00, arrival at Vágar airport at 11:25.

Day 2: Vestmanna, Tjørnuvik, Eysturoy

On your way north, we suggest a fascinating boat trip to the Vestmanna bird cliffs sailing under the cliffs and into some of the grottoes (duration approx. 2 hrs). In Vestmanna there is an interesting Saga Museum which is worth a visit. Continue to the village of Tjørnuvík, surrounded by steep mountains. From here you will be able to see the unique rock formations known as the – Giant and the Old Hag – off the north tip of Eysturoy. Drive over the only bridge across the Atlantic Ocean to the village of Eiði on Eysturoy, with its unique scenery and a spectacular view of Slættaratindur (882m), the highest mountain in the Faroe Islands. Overnight on Eysturoy.

Day 3: Eysturoy, Gjøgv

Enjoy the day in the beautiful village of Gjøgv, known for its distinctive natural harbour. Here you have a chance to take a two-hour walk with views of the bird cliffs, the “Djúpini” and the beautiful valley of Ambadalur. Stay overnight on Eysturoy.

Day 4: Northern islands

From the village of Leirvík, drive through the tunnel under the sea to Klaksvík. The tunnel is illuminated with lights in various colours, an installation by the famous Faroese artist Tróndur Patursson. From Klaksvík you can explore the other Northern Islands: Kalsoy, Kunoy, Viðoy, Svínoy and Fugloy, each with its dramatic landscape. If you walk along the Love path up to Klakkur, you will be rewarded with an impressive view in all directions including Kunoy, with its six mountains. Overnight stay on one of the Northern Islands.

Day 5: Klaksvik – Tórshavn

On your way to Tórshavn, we suggest a stop in Nes a place with historical artefacts and a charming church from the mid-19th century. Next stop could bet the wool shop Navia in Toftir where you can buy the latest fashion in Faroese woollen goods. Overnight stay in Tórshavn.

Day 6: Sandoy island

Spend this day visiting the beautiful green island of Sandoy, also referred to as the Saga Island. Sandoy is much flatter than the other islands but is rich in history and spectacular scenery. Take the ferry “Teistin” from the harbour Gamlarætt to Skopun. In the village of Sandur, you will be able to enjoy coffee and cake in a private home. Overnight stay in Tórshavn.

Day 7: Tórshavn – Kirkjubøur

Visit Kirkjubøur before you leave Tórshavn. Kirkjubøur is the oldest centre of history and culture in the Faroe Islands. The picturesque old farm there has been owned by the same family for 17 generations. Have a look at the unfinished Magnus Cathedral and the small medieval church of St.Olav. On arrival in Vágar, we suggest you take a walk to the beautiful waterfall Bøsdalafossur, from where you can see the solitary rock Geituskoradrangur and Vágar’s spectacular rugged south coast.
