Jan Chilian –
Faroe is about nature. A lot of nature. I had the chance to do a two-day kayak excursion with Hans and it was really amazing. They provide individual planning and tailor-made tours according to the level of the participants and weather conditions. We started from Tjørnuvík and headed out to the sea stacks “Risin” and “Kellingin”. It was not possible to get very close to the stacks and go around because of the heavy weather, but safety first, of course. We spent the time we saved paddling into some caves and under a waterfall, which was a fantastic experience. In the afternoon we headed south on the fjord to Nesvik and stayed a night in the basecamp with a nice little dinner. On the next day we experienced a different location with other caves and great challenging waters.
All the equipment needed was provided by the operator and Hans demonstrated all the time his knowledge about local history and his working environment. Overall, I can highly recommend this trip for kayak enthusiasts, those who want to experience a special adventure in challenging conditions with professional guiding.
I’m absolutely going to repeat this next time I am visiting Faroe.
