Highlights

Join us for a beautiful private tour of the highlights of the Faroe Islands excursion to the small villages Saksun, Tjørnuvík and Gjógv. We will stop at a few must-see spots and some extra ones along the way, while doing our best to avoid the crowds for your own private enjoyment. Our Highlights of the Faroe Islands tour is a full-day experience that allows you to experience the best of Streymoy and Eysturoy, the two central islands of the Faroes. On this tour, you will get to see the highest waterfall in the Faroe Islands up close, walk the black sands of Tjørnuvík, see the Giant and the Witch sea stacks and visit the uniquely beautiful village of Gjógv. On our way home you'll experience the new subsea tunnel including the only subsea roundabout in the world.

About Tórshavn

Tórshavn, capital of the Faroe Islands, is a small harbour town on the island of Streymoy, with turf-roofed houses on the old Tinganes peninsula.

Tórshavn sits on the south-east coast of Streymoy, the largest of the Faroe Islands, a group in the North Atlantic between Iceland and Norway. The old town of Tinganes, a rocky promontory of red-painted wooden buildings with turf roofs, has been the seat of the Faroese parliament since Viking times, and its name comes from thing, the assembly. Skansin, an old fort above the harbour, and the narrow lanes of the old quarter make up a compact centre.
