Faroe Islands Launch Self-Guided Tour Cars

If you ever feel more craving yourself than a trip. In fact, according to a report by the 2024 Mac Cancity & Co., about 80 % of passengers visit only 10 % of global attractions.

It is no different in the Danish Islands, Fero Island, located in the North Atlantic between Iceland and Norway. But in the island of Fero, they are doing something interesting about it.

With the help of Google Maps, visit the Fero Islands (Official Tourism Board) recently, a fleet of rental cars was launched with a built -in tour guide. When you rent one of these vehicles, you are willing to follow a journey that leads to some calm, less well-known corners of the islands-from food to the side of the road to small villages that are included in amazing fzords. The idea is to avoid the crowd going to the next “must watch” site and instead encourage visitors to experience less tourist destinations in the island. When you rent the car, you are willing to follow the car’s step -by -step instructions, you do not know what the day’s destinations will be.

“Across the Globe, Tourists Gather around the Same Iconic ‘Hot Spots’, Driven by Algorithms and Social Media that created ecosystem where images from popular places attract Even More PEOPLE TO THESE. Very locations. Travel + leisure. “The island of Fero has tested the growing pressure on the selected sites, and now we are trying to overthrow the flow.

After renting a 62 -N -car partner on the Fero Island, passengers scan a QR code to activate directions that cause day sites. On the way, local stories are shared.

In addition to taking passengers to locally loving places, the travelogue helps tourists dispersed, which traditionally lead to the “top three sites” of all destinations. This is the first point of its kind to prevent overturism, while passengers give them experiences they want.

“We discovered that technology and creativity have offered passengers a new way to discover Fero – in a place where they never find them,” said Hejgard. “This is a more thought -provoking journey, designed to protect both, which is most beloved and often overlooked. With this move, we hope that, for example, showing how places accept innovation to spread tourism more responsible and meaningful.”

The 30 trips, which were developed from the location’s point of view, include activities such as visiting the side of the road and the chip stand, an increase in fzords, and visiting historical sites located with Europe’s tallest marine rocks.

The Fero Islands self -navigating cars can be booked on the tourism site of the Fero Islands, starting July 8. The rates start at about $ 103 a day and these are not more expensive than a traditional rental car-though they also include the cost of travel and audio guide.
