Day 1: Arrival at Vágar airport and meetup with the team. When leaving the airport we will first visit to the beautiful town of Bøur and the waterfall of Gásadalur before we settle in our guest-house.

Day 2: In the morning we will take a hike to Sørvágsvatn, one of the most photographed places on the Faroe Islands and famous for ‘the lake that floats above the ocean’. After lunch we discover a spectacular formation of sea stacks, one of the hidden gems on the island of Vágar. We finish our day with a sunset-shoot at our guest-house.

Day 3: Today we will visit the magical village of Saksun. When driving through the valley towards Saksun it feels as if you are part of a Lord of the rings movie. The village and its surroundings offers endless possibilities to fill a day of landscape photography. At the end of this day Davy will host an Instagram Workshop in which you will receive tips & tricks on how to show your work to the world through Instagram.

Day 4: After breakfast we visit Tjørnuvík aka ‘surfers beach’ from where we can see the famous sea stacks Risin & Kellingin for a first time. At Fossá we visit one of the highest waterfalls of the Faroe Islands. Crossing the bridge we arrive on the island of Eysturoy and make a stop in Eiði to see the famous football fields on the edge of the ocean. When we leave Eiði we can see Risin & Kellingin again but then from an other angle. Our final destination of today is Gjógv, known by its 200m long sea-filled gorge.

Day 5: In the morning we will drive up north to Vidoy, the most northern island that can be reached by car. Along the road we will make several stops (Klaksvik, Hvannasund, Árnafjørður, …). In the afternoon we will take a hike to the Funnings Kommuna, which is one of the most famous viewpoints of the Faroe Islands. If time permits, we will then drive to Norõradalur and Kaldbaksbotnur to enjoy the sunset over the ocean.

Day 6: Today we’ll take the ferry to Kalsoy and spend most of the day on this island. Highlight of the day is the hike to the Kalsoy lighthouse which showcases one of the most dramatic cliffs on the Faroe Islands

Day 7: Before we head back to Vágar airport for our flight back home we try to get the most out of our time on the islands and visit several Insta-hotspots along the way to the airport. The Kvivik igloos, the Trøllkonufingur and if time permits a second visit to the picturesque village of Bøur to finish our journey were we started it.
