Travellers to the Faroe Islands can now choose from 100-plus local tours and activities on the recently launched travel booking platform Guide to Faroe Islands - the largest gathering of the tourism industry on the small islands.

Faroe Islands is one of the most remote destinations in the world and most people would struggle to locate the islands on a map of the world. 

 

But local guides and tour operators are preparing to receive a growing number of visitors in an authentic and sustainable manner.

 

On the joint booking platform for all Faroese tour operators, Guide to Faroe Islands (www.guidetofaroeislands.fo), visitors can now find and book over 100 locally organised activities and tours. Many of the tours and operators are new and include everything from birdwatching tours to the puffin island, Mykines, private hiking tours to Instagram favourites Múlafossur and Trælanípan, and ocean kayaking underneath the majestic sea stacks Drangarnir.

 

The Faroe Islands has no plans for mass tourism, but is taking a more sustainable route to growth. 

 

Guide to Faroe Islands has confirmed the platform will work closely together with local authorities, land owners and interest groups.

 

In addition to providing a seamless way for travellers to book tours in the Faroe Islands, Guide to Faroe Islands also acts as an aggregator for travel agencies around the world that now can distribute and sell tours via the site's partner portal.
