Again a excellent five star tour I did a tour with Ditte ;) As the other on this day don't go on because of weather conditions (which I totally understand), I was looking for a alternative and contact her because of good experience with some other tours I did with her before. I really feel comfortable with her and have good talks about everything. I have guides in the past on other destinations which are like once and not again. Lots of beautiful photography made from her of mine. I would definitely do a photography tour with her if you’re into that. We seen some alternative places and sightseeings where less tourists are going. Thanks again for the great tour on a typically Faroese weather day 😉

Excellent five star tour I did a tour with Ditte. Last year I did also a tour of hers and because that one was also excellent, do this time another tour with her. If you have a good connection with a guide or the guide is really open then that's a win. Then next time you may do a tour again with the same guide. You feel really comfortable with her and you are in safe hands during the hike. Lots of beautiful photography made from her of mine. I would definitely do a photography tour with her if you're into that. Thanks for the beautiful day Ditte ;)

Excellent halfday tour on Sandoy. If you have time left and want to see more then the highlights on Faroes Islands, then this is a great alternative. Average lesser tourists comes on this island. The small hike was definitely one of the highlights of the tour. You can choose between hike or a town visit. As we already seeing lots of towns during the tour, I prefer the hike. In the end a café restaurant stop where you can eat delicious fish and chips. Note it's not included in the tour and you have to pay that yourself, bit that's okay for me.

Excellent communication before the tour and also the hike itself. It was a great moderate hike and also the return walking true the tunnel was amazing experience. One of the few tunnels in Faroes Islands and worldwide you can walk ;) Really beautiful sightseeings and also the history of the original walk the postman did. In the end in a town we eat in a café restaurant some delicious Faroese snacks. Thanks for the great day ;)

Excellent tour and also communication with the guide :) The tour starts in Klaksvík harbor where the guide is waiting for you. If you only use public transport, then bus is the only option. I would use the express, fast bus as it only takes around 45 minutes when it's not rush hour. I would go around 3-4 hours before, so you can explore the beautiful town and it's surroundings. The tour itself was amazing, hike was easy. You need however need good hiking boots in case of weather, especially in autumn. You also take a visit to the tourguides home to try some delicious Faroese food. The tourguides wife had made it and together with them we had a nice chat. The way back was with taxi as there no bus in the late evening. The taxi is a bit pricey, around 1050 DKK but it's totally worth the tour. Thanks for the great day ;)

We had the pleasure of having Jens as our local guide, and how we enjoyed it! The tour was well paced, taking us through the history but also explaining how it is today in such a good reflected way. The knowledge, facts and numbers he could answer our questions with was so impressive. We recommend this to all that wants to know more about the Faroe Islands, past and present.

The kayak tour was excellent. Our guide clearly explained the safety rules and made sure we felt confident with the paddling technique before we set off. Although the weather wasn’t ideal, we still had a fantastic experience despite the wind and rain.

The guide was friendly and attentive, answering all of our questions along the way, and even assisted me personally when I got tired by towing me for a while.

Overall, a truly enjoyable experience, highly recommended.

Being a former teacher, Elsa Marie is a brilliant tourguide with heaps of knowledge of the history and culture of the Faroe Islands, its magical landscape and the people inhabiting it. She generously supplies her tourguests with truly interesting information, while maneuvering her car seemingly effortlessly throughout the day. There was not a dull moment during the 7,5 hour my husband and I spent in her company. She brings coffee, faroese treats, warmth and humor, and shows great consern for her guests.

We are truly thankful for this wonderful day with Elsa Marie on her Faroe Islands.

This tour is very highly recommended! The irrepressible Elsa who drove us hither and thither was just wonderful, sharing stories, myths and legends, and many facts about her homeland. Her love for the islands shines through and her knowledge is vast. Our tour was on a wet and very windy day but that didn’t stop anyone from enjoying the day, in fact it added to the ambience. Take this tour, you won’t be disappointed!

Do you ever meet someone and "click" instantly? That's the way it was with our tour guide, Johan (whose family operates this tour). Even with the challenge of the weather, Johan made the day so enjoyable. Being as how he's a bit of a local celebrity, it made the day even better and more personal with everyone along the way we met through him. Johan was so knowledgeable and was able to answer questions for us that weren't even tour related. He definitely went above and beyond in making sure we received the best experience...and, boy, did he deliver. We could not recommend this tour enough. You definitely won't regret it.

If you can only do a couple of tours during your stay, make sure you take this tour with Randi! Not only did Randi go out of her way to make sure we saw and did everything we wanted to do (despite the weather), but hearing her stories of local lore was a definite added bonus! My husband and I were both over-the-moon thrilled with this day and highly recommend the tour.
