By far the best way to discover the Islands is with a local guide. Falkland Islanders are keen to share stories, describing life from their perspective whilst showing visitors the very best that their home has to offer.
Whether from the Islands’ capital, Stanley, or an accommodation establishment elsewhere, you will find plenty of suggestions to tempt you to travel around with a private guide, as part of small group or as a self-guided activity. Enjoy the excitement of an overland trip in a rugged but comfortable 4x4 vehicle or set your own pace on foot. Opportunities to view wildlife are plentiful and can be tailored to suit your interests. Trips can also be arranged to battlefield sites and memorials, farms, settlements and points of interest.
Cruise visitors to Stanley are able to choose from a variety of shore excursions including town and nature walks, bus tours, farm visits, trips to wildlife destinations and battlefields. Discover the social and natural history of the Islands, learn about life on a Falklands farm or travel to the memorials of the 1982 conflict. Visits to the smaller islands of the archipelago will include spectacular wildlife colonies and often the experience of a Falklands “smoko” with delicious cakes and cookies that just have to be tasted.
If you are here for a longer stay, you will find many opportunities to build a personalised itinerary to explore your surroundings. Accommodation hosts around the Islands offer a range of daytrips and short tours.
Familiarise yourself with what our local operator and guides are doing to keep their trips sustainable which will help preserve the Falklands' pristine environment for future generations. The Green Seal Scheme is a Sustainability Certification Scheme aimed at supporting tourism businesses in the Falklands to adopt sustainable and responsible business practices.
