Plan your trip to Greenland

Fantastic tour with breathtaking views. The guides were friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

If you are visiting Ilulissat, this tour is an absolute must! Rikke is a fantastic guide; she was incredibly accommodating when we had to adjust our start time due to sudden fog. We found the most beautifully shaped icebergs to do an hour or more of kayaking in that vicinity, and then took the boat to explore more icebergs and an impressive large ship. What we appreciated most was Rikke's remarkable patience—she never rushed us and gave us plenty of time to truly take in the sights without feeling pressured to move on. Throughout the entire experience, we felt completely safe and well-cared for. This was undoubtedly a highlight of our journey through Greenland!

Very nice hike, not too difficult. Started in fog, but ended in sunshine. Very nice guide. Nice scenery. So if you like hiking, go on.

What an incredible trip - boat plus kayak is the best way to get up close to the large icebergs, then have the opportunity to take it in from the stillness of a kayak. Kayaking between the icebergs was truly unique: we were encouraged to explore freely and get up close to some of the smaller icebergs, but felt absolutely safe in the provided drysuits and with the boat following behind us. Captain Rikke was super friendly, flexible in rebooking us after some arrival issues, and happy to answer questions about local culture. Highly recommend.

Very nice walk and a very nice guide. We started with The local cuisine and it tasted great. After that a guided waslk in nice weather in old Nuuk, including the national museum. A perfect day.

Mind-blowing experience! We saw huge icebergs, I highly recommend it. One of the best experiences of my life!

We had a fantastic kayaking trip with Rikke as our captain and guide. We learned a great deal of interesting information about Ilulissat and also enjoyed a lovely boat trip. The highlight by far, however, was the kayaking itself—an unforgettable experience paddling among the icebergs. Rikke kept a safe distance while making us feel completely secure, and at the same time gave us the feeling of being entirely alone among the icebergs. Absolutely fantastic!

Phenomenal experience. Tour started promptly at 9 AM. Comfortable boat with seating capacity for 12 people around 3 tables. Interior area was comfortable temperature without feeling too hot. I enjoyed looking around from the rear deck as boat navigated through the icebergs near Ilulissat. Our first stop was at an amazing waterfall where everyone could step on the top open deck to take photos. We continued on to the glacier with Emil, our tour guide, providing a synopsis of the area we were traveling through and using maps to better illustrate points of interest. Our boat continued through the fjords to park ~4 Km from the Eqi Glacier. It was interesting to see a thin layer of ice form on the water surface around the boat. We could hear the "thunder" as icebergs separated from the glacier and occasionally see the spray of water. Emil also pointed out the location of Eqi Glacier lodge.

After 1 hr 30 min stop near the glacier, and a delicious lunch (plus cake later for dessert), we moved again. Other waterfalls (some frozen) were visible on the hills around the fjord as we traversed out and the boat headed towards an area where there was a possibility of sighting whales. I missed the seals which only appeared once momentarily. Everyone did get to see a whale for a few minutes before it flipped its tail to dive underwater. We also saw a few birds during the trip. After navigating through the icefjord again, we were back at the starting point in Ilulissat by 3 PM.
6-hrs was a perfect duration for this trip. I highly recommend this experience and am appreciative of the wonderful tour organized by Guide to Greenland.

The heli tour was great. We were on the larger H155 helicopter which fits around 10 people -- although it was not full, there were plenty of views for everyone. You take about a 20 min flight out to the massive ISUA glacier, which is different than where the boats go (Eqi). This is the huge glacier that basically produces all of the ice and massive Icebergs you see around the city. We spent some time walking around the viewing point near the glacier, and then took off and flew around the face/edge of the glacier in both directions. It definitely gives you perspective and allows you to see how the whole area is laid out. We highly recommend it and would go again for sure.

Fantastisk tur, obeskrivlig miljö och natur samt en mycket kunnig och vänlig guide. Förutom en vacker hajktur så var även båtresan en fullständig upplevelse för sig, vi såg säl och flera knölvalar på nära håll. Kommer bära med mig minnena från denna tur.

An incredible experience, really worth the money. Anna was an super guide and pilot. During the flight we became a lot of very interestings informations. It was an amazing time!

Fantastic experience, with Anna, an amazing and very friendly guide and pilot.

At first, I was unsure whether to book the tour to the Eqi Glacier, as it took up a full day (9 hours) and I only had a few days in Ilulissat. However, the trip on the icebreaker with our guide Esbjörn turned out to be one of the most magnificent experiences of my life. We sailed through amounts of sparkling ice amidst a brilliant white snowy landscape, passing waterfalls, seals, and icebergs. The sun broke through the clouds, creating breathtaking photo opportunities. Finally, we spent an hour and a half in front of the Eqi Glacier’s 200-meter-high calving face, watching as massive icebergs broke off right before our eyes and the entire ice mass shifted. Rarely have I felt so speechless and tiny in the face of such a powerful natural force. It was an experience I will never forget!

A note for anyone who suffers from seasickness (like me):
There were some waves during the first 30-60 minutes, so I would recommend taking a pill before setting off. It is best to go outside into the cool air and look at the horizon. I was totally fine then. The rest of the trip was very relaxing. With the right preparation, it is an easy journey to make.

The evening kayaking among the icebergs with Bibi was an amazing experience and one of my trip's highlights! It is absolutely suitable also for guests with no or little kayaking experience. The provided clothes kept us warm and dry while kayaking slowly among the icebergs under the midnight sun. I felt very comfortable and safe and highly recommend this tour.
