Faroe Islands Itinerary

Day 1 — Arrival in Tórshavn

Arrive in Tórshavn, the capital of the Faroe Islands, and check in at Hotel Føroyar, a serene four-star hotel set above the city, surrounded by open landscapes.

Spend the day exploring the areas close to the capital. Nearby valleys and villages such as Norðadalur, Velbastaður, and Kirkjubøur offer striking scenery and a first glimpse into Faroese life. If time allows, drive through the newly opened tunnel to Sandoy to discover the sand dunes of Sandur, or continue west toward Vágar Island, stopping in Bøur and Gásadalur to see dramatic cliffs, turf-roofed houses, and the iconic waterfall by the sea.

Further north, the Fossá waterfall and the black sand beach of Tjørnuvík make for a powerful introduction to the islands’ wild character.

Day 2 — Tórshavn & Sea Exploration

Begin the day in Tórshavn, wandering through the city and preparing for the ROWSE beauty event. The capital blends small-scale charm with a strong cultural identity, making it an ideal base for the journey.

In the evening, head out to sea for a boat trip around the dramatic sea stacks of Dranganir and Tindhólmur. Seen from the water, the Faroe Islands reveal another dimension—steep cliffs, birdlife, and a sense of scale that can only be experienced offshore. Return to Tórshavn for the night.

Day 3 — Bøur, Villages & Faroese Cuisine

The day begins with the ROWSE beauty event in Bøur, set within a traditional Faroese space overlooking the landscape. Afterward, spend the afternoon exploring villages beyond the capital.

Highlights include Gásadalur and its waterfall, the northern coast of Streymoy, and the villages of Funningur and Gjógv on Eysturoy. For those heading further north, Kunoy, Viðareiði, and Árnafjørður offer some of the most striking viewpoints in the archipelago.

In the evening, return to Tórshavn for dinner at ROKS, the relaxed sister restaurant to the two-Michelin-starred KOKS, housed in a historic turf-roofed building and known for its modern take on Faroese cuisine.

Day 4 — Local Craft & Departure

After breakfast and checkout, enjoy a final morning in Tórshavn. Meet the knitwear designers behind Guðrun & Guðrun, whose work reflects Faroese tradition and craftsmanship.

Before heading to the airport, stop by Steinprent, a lithographic workshop by the harbour, to experience another facet of the islands’ creative scene. Depart in the afternoon with Atlantic Airways, carrying with you a journey shaped by landscape, culture, and rhythm.
