For all generations

/ 8 DAYS

MAY, JUNE, JULY AND AUGUST

Light nights, sheep in the thousands, a welcoming atmosphere, and an adventurous nature become one large playground. Take the whole family on a magical tour of the Faroe Islands.

DAY 1: Arrival to the magical Faroe Islands and see the largest mailbox in the world. Pick up your rental car at the airport and drive over hill and valley via Tórshavn to the ferry harbour Gamlarætt where the ferry will take you to the island of Sandoy. On the boat trip, you see the islands of Koltur and Hestur. The ferry arrives to the village of Skopun, where you will find the world's largest (blue) mailbox, which can be seen if you drive through the village. Continue on to the small village on the island where you will stay for the next 3 nights at a summerhouse.

DAY 2: Saga island Sandoy - Vikings and witches. The island of Sandoy, also called the Saga Island, is a large playground with something for everyone. Explore the beach, the picturesque villages, the sheep grazing on the green mountain sides, and the lakes where you can fish. In the old days, there lived many witches, trolls and Vikings on the island, so there are plenty of exciting stories. Enjoy a village walk in Sandur together with a local - maybe, just maybe you will walk past the stone, where you still clearly can see a witch's footprint. Afterwards we suggest a drive to the stone beach at Søltuvík (great place for a picnic)

Incl. Village walk in Sandur

DAY 3: Enjoy the day on your own. It is also possible to visit the nearby Viking Island Skúvoy. This is the place where the viking chieftain Sigmundur Brestisson was born. Here he built the Faroe Islands' first Christian church, and is buried. For an extra fee you can pre-book a village walk on Skúvoy and visit the locals where cake, juice and coffee is served.

DAY 4: Explore the capital Tórshavn and the medieval town á Reyni. Take the ferry back to Gamlarætt. Enjoy the day in the worlds' smallest capital, Tórshavn. Take an exploratory walk through the old part of town, Reyn, with its narrow streets and grass roofs. There's also the opportunity to swim, ride horses and visit he nice little aquarium, Sjósavnið, which features saltwater fish from the sea around the islands. Accommodation in chosen holiday home on the island of Streymoy or on the island of Eysturoy, where you will stay for the next 4 nights.
