Faroe Islands Highlights Tour
Things to know
About the Activity
This small group tour is known for enabling you to see as many of the "must see" destinations in a day, but at your own pace and in an un-rushed and intimate group. More like a day out with friends, but with a knowledgeable and friendly driver/guide. For cruise visitors we sometimes use a 24 seater bus.6 hours
