Greenland Day Tours

At the moment we only offer day tours to Kulusuk in East-Greenland.

Kulusuk - East Greenland

Kulusuk Island is situated west of the entrance to Ammassalik fjord. In the area around the fjord is the main settlement of the Ammassalik Eskimos, who were unknown to the rest of the world until 1884. Now more than 2,000 Greenlanders live in the Ammassalik district, earning their living by fishing and seal hunting.
We take off from Reykjavík Airport with our knowledgeable guides who inform us during the two-hour flight about the exciting day that lies ahead. On arrival at Kulusuk, we are escorted by our guides for a 30-minute walk down to the village itself, with short stops en route to take in the magnificent scenery. There is time to stroll around the village itself, purchase handmade craft articles or even strike up an acquaintance with some of Kulusuk's 360 inhabitants. Weather permitting, we see a demonstration of kayak rowing and the ancient drum dance which disappeared a long time ago on Greenland's west coast but is still kept alive by a few people on the east coast. On our return flight to Reykjavík we enjoy a spectacular view over Ammassalik village and its neighborhood where the scenery is magnificent and huge glaciers and floating icebergs can be seen.
Finally we are given a certificate as well as a stamp in our passports acknowledging our visit to Kulusuk.

PLEASE NOTE!
Arctic conditions in Greenland may cause sudden weather changes so it is recommended to wear warm, windproof sportswear, walking boots and/or rubber boots.
We reserve the right to cancel the tour if the weather circumstances are unfavorable.
