Your Faroe Islands adventure starts the moment you step off the plane, with a sightseeing tour of some of the archipelago's most beautiful locations as you travel to your hotel in the capital, Torshavn.
Your action-packed itinerary includes a fishing tour, where you can have a go at bringing in your own catch for lunch, while keeping an eye out for puffins and razorbills overhead, and porpoises, seals, and whales in the water.
Experience Faroese hospitality and traditions first-hand with lunch at a local home, and a lesson in authentic Faroese fish-drying techniques.
These islands are loved for their rugged landscapes, and you'll get to see towering cliffs from the sea, as you sail into the enchanting fjord Trongisvágsfjørður, and from above, as you take a helicopter ride to the southernmost island of Suðuroy.
Throughout the trip, you'll be based at a four-star hotel in Torshavn, with one night in a local guesthouse on Suðuroy.
