about remót travel

REMÓT Travel was created to share the Faroe Islands through the eyes of those who call it home. We design bespoke journeys that go beyond sightseeing, connecting travelers with local people, nature, and culture in a genuine way.

Every trip is crafted around authenticity and care. We work closely with local hosts, chefs, and guides to open doors that most visitors never find — from private dinners in remote settings to quiet moments in untouched landscapes.

Our mission is simple: to offer travel that feels meaningful, personal, and deeply rooted in Faroese life, while supporting the communities and environment that make these islands so special.

meet our founders

Bjarni and Rasmus founded REMÓT Travel in 2020 with a shared love for their home and a vision to redefine how travelers experience the Faroe Islands. After more than five years working together in the hospitality industry, they saw how many visitors came and left without truly connecting with the local culture or the people who live here.

While Bjarni was studying in the United States and Rasmus in Copenhagen, they often spoke about their home and were struck by the excitement their friends showed when hearing about the Faroe Islands. It made them realize how special their home truly was and how few had experienced it.

From this realization, REMÓT was born. The idea was to create journeys that feel personal, authentic, and deeply rooted in Faroese culture.

What began as an idea between two friends has grown into a gateway for travelers seeking something rare, offering a genuine connection to the Faroe Islands shaped by local insight and delivered with the care of exceptional hospitality.

Bjarni Rasmussen
Co-Founder

Growing up in the safe cradle of the Faroe Islands, Bjarni longed to venture out into the world. This led him to backpack around the world, climb the tallest mountain peaks across continents, and finally to study and live in the United States. Now, with these experiences in his back pocket and living in New York, Bjarni appreciates his home country more than ever. “The landscapes are unmatched, the “slow living" in the Faroese villages is endearing, and the intimacy of Faroese hospitality can only truly be appreciated once you experiencing it." Observing Americans' curiosity about his home country, combined with a longing to stay in touch with his home while at university, led to the creation of REMÓT Travel together with Rasmus – the two of whom met while working together at a restaurant when younger, Bjarni as a pizza chef and Rasmus a waiter/bartender. Bjarni's favourite destination is Eysturoy. Email: bjarni@remottravel.com Phone: +298 273889
