What To Expect

Heimdal Tours are one of the very few tour companies to offer this tour to one of the most picturesque, yet still undiscovered parts of the Faroe Islands. We will take the 08:45 ferry from Tórshavn which takes 2 hours and we pass the islands of Nólsoy, Sandoy and Skúvoy. On arrival in the port of Tvøroyri, we will take you on a tour of Suðuroy, probably the most beautiful island from the road.

We will visit most of the villages and make time to relax and take lunch in Tvøroyri

Afterwards we will drive up to the northern tip of the island and tell the end of the Faroese saga history, as this was the scene for one of the main events.

We will stop in Hvalba on our way back to the ferry, where we will visit the ancient coal mines, in operation from the 1770’s.

We will also regale the story of how three ships filled with pirates landed and ravaged the village of Hvalba.

We will then take the ferry back to Tórshavn, leaving you to reflect on a great day and a memorable tour!
