A 7 days exploration of the capital of Nuuk and Ilulissat on the Disco Bay!

The Greenland Capital, Nuuk, a modern town in the Arctic, the centre of the Greenlandic administration and site of the famous Greenland National Museum.

Ilulissat

The town of the Icebergs and the most modern town in the Disko Bay area – man is still outnumbered by the huskies and traces of 4000-year old Inuit settlements are found close to town. Join us on tours to small and isolated settlements where the local population is still dependent on hunting and fishing - and don't miss the UNESCO designated Ilulissat Ice Fjord with its gigantic icebergs.
