Greenland

Vast, remote, iceberg-chocked fjords, remarkable landscape, arctic wilderness, glaciers, Northern Lights/Aurora Borealis, midnight sun, outdoor activities, Viking history, dogsledding, Inuit culture and people. Greenland is one of the world's largest islands, yet one of the least explored.

Greenland is a destination like no other, a place where dramatic fjords, ancient glaciers, and the Arctic wilderness create an unforgettable backdrop for adventurous travellers. Whether you're seeking unique outdoor experiences or a deep cultural connection with the local Inuit communities, Greenland offers a chance to immerse yourself in the extraordinary. You can hike along majestic fjords, kayaking near glaciers or if you're up for it plunge into the icy clear water as well as cruising and touring along the magnificent coastline.

WHY TRAVEL TO GREENLAND TOURS?:

If adventure is not your thing, sit back on your hotel patio and see icebergs float by on the fjord. Or experience the impressive glacier of Eqi at close range on our A taste of Greenland tour.

Summer in Greenland enjoys long days with midnight sun and mild weather-a perfect setting for a Greenland Luxury Adventure where you can be part of a truly unique remote glamping tour two hours by boat from the capital of Greenland.

OUR GREENLAND TOURS CAN INCLUDE:

For those looking to experience Greenland beyond the beaten path, the Greenland Adventure Break offers the perfect mix of luxury and adventure. Spend 4 days glamping in a remote luxury camp, accessible only by boat or helicopter, where the stunning Nuuk fjord and rugged mountains form your playground.

Summit a mountain & fish in the Arctic waters

Hike the dramatic Uumannaq summit for sweeping views over the ancient fjord, then try your hand at deep-sea fishing in the bountiful Arctic waters. End the day with a Greenlandic BBQ and swim on an iceberg — an experience few can boast about!

Kayak or SUP among icebergs & connect with local culture

Paddle through the pristine waters of the fjord, weaving between majestic icebergs. Then visit the remote village of Kapisillit, where you’ll be invited into a local family’s home for a traditional ‘kaffemik,’ a Greenlandic coffee celebration, offering an intimate look at Arctic life.

Relax in Arctic comfort

After thrilling days exploring Greenland’s raw beauty, unwind in your private luxury tent with hot showers and a cozy stove. Don’t forget to indulge in the outdoor hot tub under the Midnight Sun.
