Day 1 Torshavn (Capital) - Meet & Greet at Faroe Islands Airport for the first day of summer. 1st day of summer with some small events happening in town to get a cultural experience. Near the airport on the island of Vagar we will visit Mulafassor Falls and hopefully see some Puffin Birds as well. Also nearby we will photograph the Witches Finger.

We will also explore the culinary delights of the Faroe Islands salmon and lamb cuisine. The old town and the harbour are also worth a photo walk through the small city and surrounding areas where the only trees can be found as most of The Faroe Islands are tree-less.
