11 Apr - 18 AprIf you are interested in using rental cars to visit the Faroe Islands, then there are a few rules and regulations that you'll need to know. The blood alcohol limit is lower than 0.08% in the UK, set at 0.05% in the Faroe Islands. When driving rental cars, you must always have your headlights on in the Faroe Islands due to changeable weather. The speed limit is 50 mph in the built-up areas and 80 mph on the main roads. A lot of tunnels are used to connect different parts of the islands. Modern tunnels will have two lanes of traffic, meaning that you do not need to stop when you see oncoming traffic. However, some of the older tunnels only have one lane with turnouts every several distance on the right-hand side, where the car on the right is expected to pull in and let traffic pass. If you meet a truck or a lorry in one of the old tunnels, you are expected to use the turnout to let them pass regardless of what side of the road you are on. A similar rule in the Faroe Islands is that if you are driving a rental car on a hill and meet traffic on a one-lane road, the descending car is expected to stop to use the turnout, while the car that is ascending is given right of way.
Most car hire companies will require you to be 21 or older and will apply a surcharge to each day for drivers who are 24or younger. You will need to present a valid driver’s licence to car hire companies, and you are expected to have held your driving licence for at least two years to rent a car in the Faroe Islands. You may be asked to show your passport or another document as proof of identity at the car rentals company. You will only need an International Driving Permit if your original licence is in a non-roman alphabet language, such as Arabic or Arabic Chinese. You will need to pay with a credit card to cover the deposit and insurance.
The only part of the Faroe Islands that has any sort of traffic is the capital city of Torshavn, but even then, it's not a lot. We recommend that you walk around Torshavn or take the bus, as several public transport routes are free. You will need a parking disc in the main towns, which you can pick up at car hire companies. Outside of the city, we recommend renting a car as it offers you the most freedom to visit all of the wonderful sights that the Faroe Islands have to offer.
In the Faroe Islands, regardless of where you are on the island, you are always within three miles of the sea, so it is easy to drive around the entirety of the country. We recommend you visit some natural sights with the rental car, such as the Mulafossur Waterfall near the village of Gasadalur. Another great option to visit is Trælanipa, which is a lake that sits above the ocean. To get there, you will need to get to Vagar Island and then take an easy hike for an hour. Finally, on the northernmost part of the island, you can find Villingardalsfjall, a spearhead shaped mountain that is very famous and worth the visit.
