Sample 7-Day Itinerary in the Faroe Islands
Here’s an action-packed itinerary we created for one of our adventure-loving guests.
Hit the ground running with a private guided tour on the way from the airport to your accommodation during your stay at Bøur. That evening, we’ll arrange a welcome dinner party where a local chef will prepare a 5-course meal with wine pairings.
Go island hopping on an inflatable boat to Koltur and surrounding areas. Tour a 1000-year-old settlement village and have lunch prepared by a private chef, then take a sightseeing tour to view caves and sea cliffs. Enjoy fine dining that evening at ROKS restaurant.
Day 3
After biking around the area and taking in the breathtaking views, cool off with some cave swimming led by an expert guide. Explore the wonders of the underwater world that most people don’t get to see! End the evening with Faroese tapas at Galeon 530.
Tour the area by helicopter with stops for hikes and rappelling along the way. Take the helicopter to secluded Fugloy Island for dinner before returning to the hotel for the evening.
You’ll probably want to spend the morning relaxing after the non-stop adventure you’ve been having. We can arrange for a local masseuse to come to your suite and give you an organic aromatherapy massage at the new Ress Spa. Then it’s off again to ride through the Faroese countryside, experiencing nature on Icelandic horseback as it was meant to be seen.
Finish strong with a day full of activities: fishing, kayaking, surfing, boating, or whatever else you wish to do. That evening, experience an authentic Faroese dinner in Mykines before taking an exclusive private tour to see the sun setting over the ocean.
Have a hearty breakfast before heading to the airport to fly home. Taking a private jet will ensure you get plenty of rest during your flight, which you’ll need after your action-packed week!

After getting a fabulous night’s sleep, enjoy breakfast in bed before setting out on a private escorted tour. Experience the stunning sights of the Faroe Islands from the comfort of a luxury vehicle. A fun fact about the Faroe Islands is that the weather tends to differ from island to island. Hence, depending on the weather conditions on the different islands, your guide will take you on one of our remote and lighter unique hiking expeditions. Depending on the hike, you will stop at a charming mountain hut to ease in for a leisurely lunch and sample some local Faroese cuisine that your guide has brought. Upon returning to the hotel, take some time to relax before pampering and enjoying a sumptuous dinner.
Day 3
Today, start the day with a nice breakfast-in-bed. Take a stroll outside Hotel Føroyar, enjoying the surrounding area and the breathtaking views of the capital.

Next, jump on a helicopter tour where you can see the Faroe Islands from the air, looking down upon towering waterfalls and oceanside cliffs.
If you’re up for it - and depending on the weather - we will arrange for a private outdoor yoga session in the afternoon in a scenic spot overlooking Faroese landscapes.
End the day just outside the capital where a local farm couple will welcome you for a homely Faroese dinner. Partake in a 5-course meal created from Faroese produce while enjoying spectacular views of Koltur and Hestfjørður before being escorted back to the airport by your private driver.

5 Reasons to Book Your Faroes Islands Tour with Us
#1
Remoteness
Our concept is built around remoteness, hence the name REMÓT. We want to enable travelers to discover the remote corners of our planet - fittingly starting with the Faroe Islands. This Remoteness is also reflected in our REMÓT Retreat accommodations, pearls that combine the sense of escape with Faroese authenticity.
#2
Centred around locals
Our REMÓT Journeys are designed and centered around the locals, whether having dinner with the local farmer, fishing with the local fisherman, or going hiking with a local guide. We always provide REMÓT travelers with the opportunity to truly get a strong feel for the local environment, discovering local cultures, traditions, and nuances. We believe this is what makes for the most immersive and insightful travel experiences.
#3
Sustainable approach to travel
The Faroese have lived alone and isolated on the Faroe Islands for over a millennia. Hence, we are still getting used to the new reality of becoming a more active and visible player on the world map - and this is also true for Faroese tourism.
We believe that the best way to evolve Faroese tourism is through incremental steps, inviting locals to participate in every step of the way. Hence, at REMÓT, we have ensured to invite truly local players - from farmers to fishers to nature enthusiasts - to participate in our REMÓT Experiences. This way, locals are provided with an opportunity to participate in the growing tourism and actively define the conversations surrounding this segment. This, we believe, is the most sustainable approach to tourism in the Faroe Islands.
#4
Faroese born
We are Faroese born. The founders are Faroese, the company is Faroese, and all affiliates are Faroese. This is one of our core strengths in allowing our travelers to gain insights about the Faroese culture and explore local treasures. In a country of only 50,000 people, relationships carry weight in the Faroe Islands. By being local, we are best positioned to nurture these relationships and unlock genuinely local experiences.
#5
The most unique accommodations
Accommodation options are central to our travel experiences. We provide REMÓT Travelers with two accommodation options: Cottage Retreat and Hotel Relief. In both cases, the accommodations have been carefully viewed and selected.
Hotel Relief offers best-in-class hotel accommodations with trusted partners, showcasing Faroese luxury and comfort from its best side.
Cottage Retreat offers hand-vetted remote accommodations around the Faroe Islands, situated in slow-moving and charming villages.
