Sandoy | The Saga Island & Kirkjubøur

Sandoy is the southernmost island in the Faroe Islands, with about 1200 people. We were picked up promptly at the hotel, there were about 6 people in the bus and we drove to a short ferry ride to Sandoy. This was my second tour with this company, I had the same driver who is born and raise in nearby Vestmanna. There isn't a lot on the island itself, it has 7 villages, but the scenery was fantastic and the stops were well timed and usually in very good locations for pictures. Each stop was given even time to walk around and explore a little, the driver also gave passengers the opportunity to walk at times, because the roads are so narrow, it makes stopping for pictures difficult. The island itself is like a fairy tale, I half expected a hobbit to jump out of one of theold stone houses with grass roofs. The people are incredible friendly and quick to smile. Overall I would do this as a second tour, there is only so much to see but definitely worth the visit. The itinerary is planned well, the driver we had was excellent, and I really like the little sack lunch they pack for you. We also stopped at a really funky cafe in the middle of nowhere. It had excellent food and coffee, in a house with dining room tables and couches set up around tables. In the end I forgot my rain jacket and phone solar charger on the ferry and the driver picked it up and delivered to my hotel later that night. Nice experience and a good way to explore the edge of the Faroe Islands.
