Mondays
09.30-16.00
Guided tour all around the Island of Vágar in a comfortable coach.
You will be picked up right at your hotel or other designated area in Tórshavn. From there you can sit down and relax while the local tour guide happily shares knowledge about the beautiful sights you see along the journey.
On the tour we will stop to see sights such as Leitisvatn, Nykurin statue, Bøur, Tindhólmur, Drangarnir and the most popular waterfall of them all, Múlafossur.
The tour starts with a 45 minute drive to Sørvágur where we will enjoy a short coffee break.
From there we will drive to the village Bøur, often reffered to as the village in the Faroes with the best view. We will take a stroll through the picturesque village and hear some history.
From Bøur you will see the free-standing rocks named “Dranganir” and the amazing islet of Tindhólmur.
After Bøur we will drive through the only tunnel on the island to the distant and previously very isolated village of Gásadalur. Here we will enjoy a spot of lunch and take a walk to the most photographed waterfall in the Faroes, Múlafossur.
From Gásadalur we will drive past Sørvágsvatn, the largest fresh-water lake on the islands. Here we will drop off those who have opted for the optional extra hike to the “Lake above the Ocean”.
From here we will drive to Sandavágur village where we will have the chance to see the Trøllkonufingur (Witch’s Finger) free standing cliff and visit the local Church. Here you will hear about religion and old customs on the islands.
From Sandavágur we will drive back to the Sørvágsvatn lake and say hallo to the Nykur statue and hear the legend of this fairy tale creature.
Then we will visit the War Museum where objects and other historical memorabilia from the Second World War and the British occupation of the Faroes is explained.
From here we will pick up the hikers and return to Tórshavn.
