Greenland Hikes & Cruises

From fjord cruises to Arctic hikes and even kayaking, discover Greenland's remote beauty the way you want.

Greenland is the world’s largest island, a vast Arctic wilderness covering over 2.2 million square kilometres - that’s four times the size of France or five times California. Over 80% of its surface is blanketed by the planet’s second-largest icecap, creating an awe-inspiring landscape shaped by ancient glaciers, deep fjords, and sharp mountain ridges.

Whether you're navigating iceberg-strewn waters on a small ship cruise or trekking rugged valleys carved by ice, our Greenland adventures offer unique access to every corner of this remarkable land. Our range spans the entire island – from West to East – with experiences suited for both walkers and wildlife enthusiasts.

Home to Inuit communities and a strong hunting tradition, especially in the remote east, Greenland offers a rare window into Arctic life that has endured for centuries. In settlements like Kulusuk, Tiniteqilaaq and Tasilaq, you’ll encounter a deep connection to the land, where ancient languages are still spoken and traditional skills are part of daily survival. Wildlife here is equally extraordinary – from the haunting calls of narwhals offshore to sightings of polar bears, walrus and musk ox across the tundra. Our adventures are designed to bring you closer to both the culture and the creatures that define this spectacular polar frontie

We offer one of the most diverse portfolios of Greenland adventures available - from ship-based voyages and cultural encounters to remote Arctic hikes led by expert local guides.

It is slightly cooler than the entry to the East, Kulusuk (where the international airport is situated), because the capital lies close to the Greenland Ice Sheet. Snow covered for much of the year, it has an average annual precipitation of around 915.1mm (36 inches).
