  1. Peter Wilson

    The theme of this tour does not lie. Never have I seen so many different types of ice, in so many different versions, shapes and colors. Yes, colors, because the light, the sun and the weather produce different visual effects on both glaciers, icebergs and ice sheets.
    The many guided tours were overwhelming, exciting and full of historical facts and funny stories from the present. In general, the Greenlanders are a people who smile and laugh very easily.
    An unforgettable trip.

    En uforglemmelig tur. Naturen er unik og enestående!!!
    Kæmpe isbjerge, fjelde, venlige mennesker og gode guider.
    Når jeg kun giver turen 4 stjerner, er det mest pga. indkvarteringen. Nogle steder var bestemt ok, men jeg vil anbefale man afstemmer forventningerne bedre. Måske havde jeg bare forventet noget andet og bedre.
    Det vi ikke fik indendørs, kompenserede naturen rigeligt for udendørs.
