What To Expect
Leirvik
After pick-up in Tórshavn, we head north and down into the roughly 11-kilometer-long Eysturoy Tunnel, which is unique as the only undersea tunnel in the world with a roundabout, surrounded by a beautiful piece of local artwork. Forty-five minutes later, we make a brief stop in Leirvík to talk about Vikings, avalanches, and abandoned villages before we continue our journey through second undersea tunnel to the Northern Isles.
Klaksvik
When it storms in Klaksvík, the mountains rumble, and when it’s time for fishing, the trawlers sway in and out of the harbor. Upon entering Klaksvík, the prominence of the fishing industry is instantly underscored by the striking sight of a giant metal fishing hook statue. The town has spread around the bay and increasingly up the steep mountainsides. Besides fishing, the town is also known for hosting a large number of events and festivals throughout the year, and there’s also an award-winning brewery in Klaksvík.

Great and relaxed way to see the Northern Islands

5.00I chose this trip for my first full day in The Faroes as it let me get the lay of the land and how the tunnel system works (very easy). I was travelling solo and there were three other passengers on the tour. It was a good way to the far distant north with someone else doing the driving. The itinerary was excellent as it allowed many islands to be seen and with good input of information from the Guide. The Guide was also very good at answering the many questions asked. The weather was super and this made everything very relaxed. I had breakfasted at 07.30 and was collected from my accommodation at 09.00 so it was a long time till we had lunch so perhaps, like me, you might want to pack a few snacks. The tour advertises beverages and lunch and this was a bit disappointing considering the cost of the tour; the only beverage was a single small bottle of water and lunch was a single filled roll, an apple and a sugary nut bar; I though that the lunch might have been in a cafe which would have added to the ambience of the day. Would I recommend this tour? Absolutely, it was much enjoyed - just pack some nibbles!
Perfect trip

Enchanted paradise... Wonderful

5.00Remote and magical islands. A place where nature dominates and where you feel very small compared to so much wonder. Relaxing and sometimes gloomy landscapes. Sheep that roam everywhere and then they, puffins or puffins... Funny and tender. In short, a land to discover with a recommendation... Respect the nature and people of this enchanted place.
Kristina is amazing!!
