Are you in doubt about what you want to experience on the islands? Why not take a little of everything.
The Faroe Islands is a place where few people have been. The far-flung rocky archipelago is the most stunning piece of nature that you will ever see far away from well-travelled spots. The unfathomable beauty of the Faroe Islands is still a well kept secret. With this in mind, we have created some tour packages for you to experiance as much as possible.

The driving part was followed by a fun hike to the Kallur lighthouse with Johannus, the local farmer whose land the lighthouse stands on.

Unfortunately a planned tour to Mykines to see puffins had to be cancelled due to rough weather for the ferry, but MM Tours instead offered a photo tour of the superbly picturesque Vagar island. Jogvan was the absolute best possible tour guide with a vast knowledge about his country and some pretty impressive language skills. The packed lunch along with local beers was offered in the picture postcard perfect little town of Bour.
The day ended with an easy but fun nature walk to the Slave Rock and the lake above the ocean with a local guide, Pall. The walk is only about 45 minutes each way and the views of the lake and the ocean are absolutely mesmerizing.
It is really great that MM Tours offers these combo tours of sightseeing by bus plus some hiking as these full day tours really give a great overview of the islands you are visiting. Looking forward to more trips with them on further visits.

I can't wait to visit the Faroes one day soon, and help them flourish and get back on their feet, doing what they love to do. Thanks, Jane (Sydney)

Was lucky to have a good mix of bright sunny weather... read more as well as some bouts of thick foggy days, rain and cloudy days. But that enhances the whole experience as you get to witness and see Faroe in different light. That being said, fogs and rain would miraculously change for better weather with a bit of waiting.
Magnus and the team at MMTour was simply amazing! Tours were great with lots of random photo stops along the way, usually extremely photogenic places. Harry was knowledgable and had a really good sense of humour, with his nugget of information about statistics of Faroe, the tunnels, and the language. Jógvan was brilliant, extremely bright and knowledgable on vast topics ranging from history of Faroe and Viking, topics on how Christianity came into Faroe, geography of the landscape as well as the myths, mythologies and stories of Faroe. Absolutely a delight to hear those stories!
We even got a glimpse of the Faroese drying shed with fermented lamb leg and had the chance to see chopped up pilot whale meat and blubber. Which was quite cool!
Ultimately Magnus and the team was really hospitable and engaging throughout the tour, trying to be more personable by chatting and getting to know almost each and everyone of the people on the tour. Great job guys and thank you for making my Faroe trip so memorable!
