Welcome to West Greenland!

You’ll land at Kangerlussuaq Airport and join your guide for a meet and greet.

You will be transferred to your accommodation, which will house you for your stay in Kangerlussuaq. Before dinner, you’ll join your knowledgeable guide for sightseeing around Kangerlussuaq. Kangerlussuaq is located inland and was originally founded as an American military base during the second world war. Therefore you are sure to experience both beautiful nature sights and interesting historic locations.

By 19.00/ 7 PM you are invited to dinner at ‘The Row Club’ (two-course dinner).

The restaurant is known for its Greenlandic based buffet and a la carte – made from local commodities.

Mini expedition on the Greenland Ice Sheet

Your second day in Greenland brings you on top of the Greenland Ice Sheet for ice-trekking.

Breakfast is served between 07.30-09.00 AM.

By 13/1 PM o’clock, you will board our tour bus to Point 660, from where you will ascend onto the Greenland Ice Sheet for an ice trek.  The drive to the ice has a duration of approx. 1 hour. En route, you can enjoy views of the beautiful valley, Sandflugtsdal, with its turquoise glacial river and rolling arctic tundra. We will tell you about the history and features of the area around Kangerlussuaq and keep a sharp eye out for the Musk Ox, reindeer, arctic hare and arctic foxes that are frequently found along this route.

Your mini-expedition starts on-site, with your experienced guide teaching you how to navigate around the ice. We will hike up onto the Ice Sheet following a path that has been prepared through the glacial moraine. The width of this track shows you how much the ice has retreated in the years since the road was built, and unfortunately, it is growing wider with each passing year. On the Icecap itself, we have breathtaking views of this enormous sheet of ice that stretches as far as the eye can see. You will have plenty of time to wander around (carefully), explore, and take pictures before we return to Kangerlussuaq via the same route.

You will be back in Kangerlussuaq by 6/7 PM.

Two course dinner at restaurant Roklubben.

The Russel Glacier & Greenlandic tundra safari

Your third day in Kangerlussuaq brings you to the Russel Glacier and on an exciting tundra safari.

Breakfast can be enjoyed between  7.30 AM and 09.00 AM. At 09.30 to 11.00, you depart for the tundra safari, to discover the large variety of Greenlandic fauna that lives in the Kangerlussuaq area. Commonly seen on these tours are musk oxen, caribou, arctic hare and polar foxes.

Later in the day, we bring you to the great Russel Glacier. The Glacier can get to be as high as 60 meters and sometimes even taller. You will be driven close to the glacier, bringing you up close meanwhile keeping a safe distance. You will have the extraordinary chance to see the massiveness of the Glacier at first-hand.
