All you need to do is arrive and be prepared to... "release your inner Viking!"
As well as being voted the #1 favourite travel destination by National Geographic readers, the Faroe Islands are truly one of the few remaining last frontiers, sitting at the top of the world, breathing the freshest of air and looking down on the hustle, bustle and occasional sheer madness of the rest of the world below with a wry and sometimes, self-satisfied smile.
The scenery that makes up the 18 islands is well documented and spectacular, deserving of it's comparisons to a Tolkien landscape, the Lilliput of Gulliver's Travels and the land that the Gods chose to be the weather's playground. With several new Faroe Islands hotels and Airbnb Faroe Islands growing strongly, there is now more choice of accommodation type than ever before.
