Suspended between Scotland and Iceland, this timeless landscape is home to only a few thousand people and over 34 million seabirds nesting on its cliffs. A six-day journey immersed in uncompromising nature, traveled in an exclusive minivan or minibus with up to 15 participant.
Visiting the Faroe Islands feels like stepping into the past, where even time seems to pause to admire the extraordinary scenery. The archipelago is home to countless seabirds puffins, gannets, guillemots, terns and above all to landscapes that remain unspoiled and authentically wild. Fishing villages and Tórshavn, the world’s smallest capital, complete the portrait of these remarkable islands.
During our journey, we will explore Mykines, Gjógv, Klaksvík, Cape Enniberg, and the breathtaking vistas of Sornfell.
If you seek pure nature, silence, the sound of crashing waves, fierce gusts of wind, and thousands of birds skimming the cliffs, this is your place. With its Jurassic-like scenery, dramatic sea cliffs (including Cape Enniberg, the highest sea-facing cliff in the world), and a land still largely untouched by tourism, the Faroe Islands offer more than enough to fill an entire week of discovery.

The Grindadráp is a traditional practice in the Fær øer Islands involving the hunting of pilot whales, regulated by local authorities. It is not a planned or tourist event and can occur unpredictably. While it is not part of the trip, it is possible to become aware of it or encounter related situations. We believe it is important for each participant to be informed about its existence in order to travel consciously and form their own personal opinion.
