One of the world’s smallest capital cities
Tórshavn is the cultural and political heart of the Faroe Islands, with colourful houses, turf-roofed government buildings and a compact harbourfront. Visit for its restaurants, museums and easy access to nearby islands and hiking routes.
Gateway to the northern islands
Klaksvík sits between dramatic mountain walls and serves as the main hub for the northern islands. It is a good base for boat trips, birdwatching and hikes to panoramic viewpoints like Klakkur.
Southern Suðuroy fishing town
Vágur on Suðuroy combines a working fishing harbour with access to wild coastal scenery. Travellers come for quieter landscapes, local life, and hikes to cliffs and sea viewpoints with far fewer visitors.
Airport village and lake hikes
Sørvágur near Vágar Airport is the starting point for famous hikes such as Trælanípa and Bøsdalafossur overlooking Sørvágsvatn lake. It is convenient for short stays and offers quick access to Mykines by boat or helicopter in season.
East-coast harbour on Eysturoy
Runavík is a small but important harbour town with growing services and good road links. It is a practical base for exploring central Eysturoy, including the Eysturoyartunnilin undersea tunnel and nearby viewpoints.
Expect to spend $200–$700 per day on food, depending on your style.
The Faroe Islands offer a breathtaking mix of rugged cliffs, sweeping valleys, and vibrant green hills. One of the must-visit spots is Gásadalur, where you can witness the stunning waterfall cascading into the ocean, surrounded by towering mountains. For the best views, hike up to Slættaratindur, the highest peak, which rewards you with panoramic vistas. Don't forget your camera! To stay connected while you explore, consider getting a Hello eSIM before your trip. This way, you can share your incredible experiences on social media without worrying about roaming charges. Plus, with the app, you can easily organize your itinerary, making it easier to plan your hiking routes. The natural beauty here is truly unparalleled, so take your time to soak it all in.
No trip to the Faroe Islands is complete without indulging in the local cuisine. Try the famous fermented lamb (skerpikjøt), which is a unique delicacy, or savor the traditional fish stew (fiskisuppa) made with fresh catch from the surrounding waters. For a sweet treat, don't miss out on Rúgbrauð, a dense rye bread often served with butter and fish. To keep track of your spending on these delicious meals, use the budget tracking feature in the Hello app. This can help you manage your expenses in Faroese króna (DKK), which is roughly equivalent to 0.15 USD. And if you're dining with friends, the expense splitting feature makes it easy to share the bill!
Getting around the Faroe Islands can be an adventure in itself! While public transportation is reliable, renting a car gives you the freedom to explore at your own pace. The scenic drive from Tórshavn to Gjógv is particularly stunning, taking you through picturesque villages and along the coastline. For a unique experience, consider taking a ferry to the smaller islands like Mykines, known for its puffin colonies. To ensure you stay connected on the road, purchase a Hello eSIM before landing. This way, you’ll have instant access to maps and travel tips without incurring extra charges. Plus, the trip planning feature in the app can help you create an itinerary that maximizes your time in this beautiful archipelago.
