Nuuk Water Taxi

An enjoying boat trip, we saw some whales, and some other great landmarks.

No whales.. and the coffee was cold.
🙁

The trip was excellent in large extent thanks to a very nice and competent guide. Hot chocolate was served, which was nice after being outside looking out for the whales. Kept some time but finally managed to see some, which has been great. A closed ship was used, great to warm up. All in all, a fantastic experience!

This was an outstanding tour. Both the captain and the guide were very informative and helpful. It’s interesting to walk around the island and see how the people lived. And we stopped at a couple of very scenic spots on the way home. This is a don’t miss tour.

Almost nothing described in the leaflet has been delivered (tour on 11th of May 2025, started at 15:30). We were five cramped in a small boat, like sardines. When walking on the island, be aware there is no pier, you have to jump from the boat on a slippery rock. On the island there is no trail, quite challenging to walk on grass, snow and rocks

Great tour. Once in a life time experience. Excellent guide. Highly recommended.

Incredible day trip to this little settlement! We were able to get off the boat and walk around the old Cod factory while the guide told us stories about its history and her own personal stories as a kid visiting the island. There were TONS of little icebergs on the shore which were amazing to see! Super unique trip, and not to mention the views throughout the fjord were spectacular!

Absolutely amazing tour? Totally recommended. And big thank you for our wonderful captain – don’t remember her name but it was a woman! Thank you!

Passeio inesquecível próximo a nuuk, adorei o sabor do whisky e a paisagem local 😀

The ice fjord trip was one of the highlights of our five days in Nuuk. Beyond the awesome beauty of the fjord with its towering snow-covered mountains and the thrill of seeing thousands of icebergs of different kinds, both our captain and guide were warm, friendly, and engaging. One of the best parts of the trip was our guide reaching into the sea with a net and extracting a beautifully clear piece of 10,000 year old ice and cracking that ice for drinks. Our captain also performed a very old, traditional East Greenland song for us as we floated amongst the icebergs in this stunning setting of mountains, sea, and ice. We were also lucky to see a whale quite nearby. This excursion is a must for anyone visiting Nuuk.

The icefjordtrip was fantastic. We saw lots of icebergs and it is almost supernaturalistic to sail close by Them. The staff was so nice too. I Can very much recommend the tour.

Helt igennem fantastisk tur!
Besætningen var et yngre par, og de var super venlige og åbne.
Isbjergene var virkelig smukke, og vi fik mulighed for at røre dem.
Derudover fik vi muligheden for at bade
I det kolde vand, hvilket var en helt unik oplevelse. Det føltes rigtig sikkert og selvom vi afklædte os, var de rigtig professionelle alligevel.
De andre passager er var snaksagelige, så vi følte os meget velkomne!

Was a nice tour, but based on the description expected more from the boat. It was a rather crowded generic boat with room for 6 inside…and quite cramped for this long of a trip. The guide/driver (one person) was quite nice and knowledgable, but did struggle a bit with communicating in English at times. That said, it was a very nice trip and the small group made for a leisurely/customizable to a point pace, so overall recommended!

Perfect Day.
First there was a lot of fog, but later we had a sunny day and fantastic 6 hours on board.
Have seen so many beautyful icebergs. We will never forget this trip. Thank you so much!

We booked a 2 hour Icefjord Tour through Guide to Greenland and had an amazing time touring with a team. The positive experience started with the team doing a great job communicating with me on the day of the tour since tours had to be delayed due to cruise ship delays. The boat tour was beautiful and in a very nice and comfortable boat. We really enjoy cruising around the fjords and seeing waterfalls and icebergs. The tour team was also great and offered a ton of local knowledge and history and really went out of their way to ensure their passengers had a great time. We HIGHLY recommend the tour and would love to do this tour again.

Amazing trip! Pack a camera and lots of memory cards!
The crew were hospitable and knowledgeable and were very nice to chat to!

A „must-do“ when in Nuuk! This was a fantastic trip. We were fortunate to take this tour on a crisp, sunny day. We saw whales, seals, birds, and some impressive icebergs and glaciers. The crew is friendly and hospitable.

Bring your camera and some sunglasses (it can get bright near the glaciers)! The crew provides beverages and some snacks, and the interior of the boat is kept warm.

This trip was the highlight of my holiday in Nuuk. The baot was comfortably warm and well equipped. The guides were very kind professional and entertaining.

If you only get a chance to book one boat ride while you’re in Nuuk, this is the one. You’ll see an abandoned village, a massive bird colony, a few waterfalls, and of course, the icebergs. The guides were super friendly and very willing to answer any questions. Overall, one of the best tours I’ve done!

labai gera kelionė laivu Labradoro jūra aplink Nuko miestą. Puikūs vaizdai nuo viršutinio laivo denio. Visos kelionės metu buvome rūpestingai globojami laivo personalo. Labai patiko atšiauri gamta, plaukimas ir gamtos stebėjimas. Laivas patogus, gera kava kelionės metu sušildė visus keleivius. Laivo kapitonas – atsakingas žmogus, kartu nestokojantis jumoro jausmo. daug dėmsio skyrė laivo keleiviams. Puiki visos kelionės organizacija nuo pat įlaipinimo iki atsisveikinimo.
Man patiko keliauti su „Guide to Greenland“ kompanija. Tikiuosi sekantį kartą plaukti iki ledkalnių visai dienai.

I was underwhelmed by the experience. From all the promotional materials I expected to see much more in the way of ice burgs.
The two fellows on the boat were very nice. Not their fault.

I wish to advise that I had a fabulous day in Nuuk thanks to your help with the Tour Bookings . The „Fjord Safari Cruise“ was spectacular. The Crew were excellent. On the cruise we witnessed an incredible Sunset, plenty of small to Large Icebergs and either one or possibly two Whales going about their normal business performing for our cameras.

To conclude I had a memorable visit to Greenland, so wish to thank you for your help in organizing the two Tours.

The “Catch N Eat” experience in Greenland is more than a tourist activity—it is a profound cultural and ecological immersion that embodies the intersection of Indigenous knowledge, sustainable living, and cross-cultural connection. From the moment we set out on the frigid yet crystalline waters, our small group of eager participants was invited not only to witness but to partake in a tradition as old as the Arctic coastlines themselves: fishing for survival, for sustenance, and for shared memory.

The catch—healthy specimens of cod and vibrant ocean perch—was abundant and exhilarating to reel in. These moments, filled with laughter, encouragement, and gentle competition, reflected the deeply human joy of harvesting one’s own food. Yet what elevated this outing into the realm of scholarly significance was the shoreline demonstration that followed. There, an experienced local fisher expertly filleted our catch in front of a rapt audience, narrating the process with insight rooted in generations of lived experience. It was a tactile education in anatomy, resourcefulness, and respect for the land and sea.

The walk from the shore to the seaside “tester aunt” (tasting tent) was as breathtaking as it was symbolic—a literal and metaphorical journey from nature’s raw offering to communal nourishment. The landscape was a textbook of glacial geology and Arctic flora, while the social environment was a case study in emergent kinship. Newfound friendships were forged not through convenience but through shared awe, and gratitude.

This excursion merits academic attention as a model for experiential, land-based learning. It holds potential as a pedagogical template for sustainable tourism, intergenerational teaching, and the preservation of Arctic lifeways. In short, Catch N Eat is not simply a tour—it is a living classroom.

Wonderful excursion! Our crew was friendly and helpful! We had a chance to stop and do some whale watching on our way to the fishing spot. The fishing spot was close to a beautiful waterfall on a nearby mountain. We caught plenty of cod and enjoyed a nice dinner and conversation at the restaurant in Qooqqut.

Very fine trip. The guide, Malik, was an excellent storyteller and knew a lot of facts about Greenland, which he wasn’t shy to share. The fishing was great and fun!
The food was ok, but, in my opinion, too little emphasis on the fish and too much deep fried.
The taste was fine, though.

First time in my life try fishing with the line, was so fun and easy! Guide help me all the way explained what we need to do. After that we sailed to amazing small local restaurant in middle of nowhere and they cocked our fish 3 different ways. Delicious and fun tour!
