Absolutely amazing experience with Sea Travel! We were only 6 people on the boat, which made the tour feel really personal and relaxed. The scenery was incredible, with dramatic cliffs, waterfalls and lots of birdlife.Our guide was fantastic and told us so many interesting stories about the Faroe Islands, the local area and the puffins. We honestly didn’t expect to see puffins anymore this late in the season, so spotting them during the tour made the experience even more special.Everything was well organized and the whole trip felt very personal. Definitely one of the highlights of our time in the Faroe Islands. We would 100% recommend Sea Travel to anyone visiting!

Great trip! We did the 1.5hr Drangarnir boat tour. With the help of our guides Andy and Solja, we saw a few shy seals, and lots of cute puffins and other birds including arctic turns and gulls. Being up close to places like Drangarnir was amazing!

I got very lucky with the weather so we were able to go far out and see the wonderful cliff sides up close. It was too early in the year to see the famous puffins, but there is nothing better than seeing the raw nature of these islands up close and on the water! If you are looking for a tour with lots of facts and history shared along the way, this may not be suited for as it’s more focused on seeing the sights (which is what I was looking for), but our boat operator was very friendly and had his own personal stories of the islands to share and converse with us.

The boat trip we took with my wife was unforgettable. Even though it’s not the high season anymore (early September), we still managed to see puffins and even whales!It was a bit cold, even though we got lucky with the sun, so pack your warm water/wind-proof clothing.Special thanks to Elias, the captain and the tour guide, who’s shown us all the most beautiful places and added the flavour to them by sharing all the fun personal stories as well as the Faroese tales. Can’t recommend enough

We booked a 90 minute cruise and absolutely enjoyed it. The scenery is stunning and our skipper and guide Elias made the trip a funny one. He explained in great detail and told many stories. We spotted a few puffins, many gannets and other birds along the way. We can definititely recommend the tour.

Amazing boat trip we had with Elias. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the history. My husband had a great time talking boats with him. The sea cliffs, sea stacks and basalt columns were impressive. Elias has great skill with the boat. Definitely recommend doing this tour.

We took Safari puffin tour with sea travel on our recent visit to Farore island. Captain Rain was very informative and friendly. The tour was great and we were able to see the landmarks as well as the puffins. Highly recommended Sea view travel.

Great trip out to Peter Pan Neverland. Elias told funny and exciting stories about the area. Very personal and informative guide. He sailed close to the birds so we could see them. Especially the puffins were a fantastic experience Definitely worth a trip to experience.

This was one of the highlights of our trip and so enjoyable for everyone. Elias is wonderful and did a great job navigating through the waters so we had enough time for any and allPictures we wanted to take and keeping us on the least bumpy path. Thank you!

Great tour with Elias. He expertly navigated the weather to get us the best views of various birds, waterfalls, and land formations while including stories from his life growing up in the area. Thankfully we didn’t have any weather delays but it seems they do everything they can to make sure you get a trip out if there is a cancellation. I would definitely recommend a trip with sea travel.

My cousin have their honeymoon in Faroe Islands. I would say this boat tour is so memorable, especially in such a good weather!

We highly recommend the puffin safari. We were lucky to see flocks of puffins flying over, floating around the boat or chilling on the rocks. It wasn't just luck of course because skipper Elias knows Sørvágurjordur like the back of his hand. He brought us eye to eye with the puffins while keeping enough distance not to frighten them. Elias' tales about growing up around the Sørvágurjordur made the trip even more memorable.

Great trip with Jon to Sea stacks and Drangarnir. The landscape from the sea gives a different perspective and in our case, Jon’s stories about the Faroe Islands enhanced the experience.Thank you Jon 😊

Great time with Seatravel!We visited the islands in April, a period when going to Mykines is difficult, but thanks to them, we were able to go there without difficulty, with the added bonus of a short passage through Drangarnir!It was perfect.

We had such a great trip! With 4 guests in the boat it felt like a private tour - it’s pretty early in the season so there’s not yet a bunch of tourists on the islands.Elias was our captain and Kristina was his co-guide and both of them are the kindest people one could meet. Not only was everything we saw breathtakingly beautiful, Elias is a local and he told us many funny and interesting stories. We were so lucky: the trip lasted much longer than 1,5 hour. For us, it could go on forever. It truly was one of the most spectacular experiences in our life.Highly recommend!!!

Wow. I had no idea of the incredible afternoon we were about to experience. I'm not one for words, but can say that the memories from this trip will be at the front of my mind forever. Couldn't have asked for a better skipper. Elias was welcoming and friendly, and shared with us tales of local Faroese adventures and ways of life. The boat was very comfy too, with an escape from the Faroe chill, complete with heaters and cushy seats in the large-windowed cabin. The cutest curious seals too! 😃🦭 If I ever come back (I will) I'll 100% be booking another trip with Elias on SeaTravel 🏞

What a nice trip and way to see the island from the sea sideIt was also especially due to the guide, Elias, who brought additional value with all his local knowledge and personal stories. All the best recommendations from here 👍

My wife and 2 boys (ages 13 and 8) did a fishing tour with Seatravel on Saturday 10/21/23. It was awesome! Elias was our captain and he was so great and knowledgeable about the island. The boat he took us out on was so beautiful. It was a bit cold, so having the cabin to warm up in while seeing the sights made is perfect for us. We caught one fish and it was a little too cold to fish honestly, but the view of the island is a must!!! We saw a waterfall and beaches you can’t see from the land. Getting up close to the sea stacks was incredible. They are breathtaking up close. I can’t say enough about our trip with Elias. Thank you so much!!!

Teitur took us on a fabulous 1,5 hour boattrip in the spectacular surroundings of the southern Vagar island. We had big waves and heavy wind but Teitur manouvered our little boat like it was no problem whilst telling stories about big storms in the arctic, crazy islanders, seals and secret beaches. He could even show off some basaltknowledge. We had SO much fun. I would go again any day.

I did the boat tour to Drangarnir. We were a group of 8 people. The group itself was filled with really nice people. The skipper was nice, full of knowledge and gave some ideas of attractions to do/see. He made sure, when a few of us were sea sick, to go to less bumpy water. The tour itself was really nice. We saw the main attractions near Drangarnir and Drangarnir up close. Even if I was sea sick, I liked the tour very much!

Great tour with professional captain Elias. He chooses the route according to the weather of the day, tells in detail about each object, gives the opportunity to take great photos, and does not rush to continue sailing. Great service from the owner as well - there were no seats left for that evening's tour, so he organized an extra tour especially for us the next morning to match our travel itinerary.During this tour, we did not feel like tourists, but like family guests. Thanks for the wonderful moments!

The boat trip with Elias was definitely the highlight of our trip to the Faroe. Besides giving us a fantastic sea trip experience, he told us about local history and interesting stories from his own life in Sørvågur. He brought us to the right spots to get the best pictures of the sea stacks and the waterfalls in the area. Thank you so much, Elias!

We absolutely loved our boat trip around the Drangarnir sea stacks with Regin. He speaks perfect English (in addition to Faroese, Danish and German!) and is extremely knowledgable about the local history, fishing industry and fauna. His family has lived locally for many years so he has many great stories and recommendations. It was very easy to bool the tour, and he was careful to pinpoint a good time for our trip despite the famously unpredictable weather. He knew we were eapecially interested in seeing puffins and tailored our tour to endure we had many opportunities for viewing and photo taking. Thoughtful touches such as binoculars and hot coffee and tea made it even more special. In short, Regin is a pro. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit Vagur’s magical hidden fjord with him!

I've done many boat tours, this one was definitely the best of my life. Only a few passengers fit on the boat, so everything is very private and familiar and questions are patiently answered. The crew makes you feel that this is not a tourist attraction but rather showing the beauties of the fjord for a special guest. Thanks for that, that was really great and very, very impressive.From my point of view you cannot leave the Faroe Islands without taking a boat tour to Drangarnir.

Absolutely worth it and highly recommended. Captain Elias sailed us to all the highlights, and parked the boat for everyone to take pictures of the beautiful landscape. He told us stories about the specific landmarks, and from when he was young growing up in the area. A great authentic experience.

Just a simple holiday 4,600 miles away from home - pure perfection, cozy group size, and our local guide Regin who was extremely accommodating and patient while we took an excessive amount of photos. One of the best tours on the Faroe Islands. Dress in layers, bring sunglasses, & be prepared to be impressed. Perfection still exists - in on the Faroe Islands.

I 100% recommend this tour, it was fantastic. The team is friendly and professional. It's not a big boat with a horde of tourists, so you feel a bit like you're on your own boat, which is really nice.Of course, the scenery is absolutely incredible, and you're often left breathless by nature's raw beauty.

Never have I ever had such an amazing sailing experience. The magnificent mountains, islets and sea stacks are breathtaking just looking at. The boat is nice and clean, and very good on the sea. And also we had lunch, which was locally made. With the experienced Elias as captain we were able to sail close and through the sea stack, which made the experience a thousands times better! There was also the possibility to try catch fish, if one would like that. I would recommend this trip to everyone!
