Iceland & East Greenland Tour

7 Days / 4 locations in Iceland and Greenland

Experience the capital of Iceland - a modern metropol with the amazing nature on its doorstep. A rough landscape in greyish and dark greenish colours. Only 2 hours flying time west of Iceland on the edge of the gigantic Greenland Inland Ice Cap the tiny settlements Kulusuk and Tasiilaq witness the ability of the Eskimo population adjusting to the arctic climate. East Greenland is a great experience of Arctic nature and it is a totally different world to the Metropol of Reykjavik and the Icelandic landscape. The perfect combination.
