The Greenland Capital, Nuuk

A modern town in the Arctic, the centre of the Greenlandic administration and the site of the famous Greenland National Museum.

Ilulissat

The town of the Icebergs and the most modern town in the Disko Bay area – still man is outnumbered by the huskies and traces of 4000 years old inuit settlements are still to be found. Small and isolated settlements are to be found close to the town where the local population is still depending upon hunting and fishing - not to forget the UNESCO designated Ilulissat Ice Fiord and its gigantic icebergs.

Kangerlussuaq

The wildlife area where a short stopover makes it possible to join an arctic safari and experience musk oxen & reindeer.
