Étape 1
Reykjavik
Since you will already be in Iceland, it would be a shame not to also visit nearby Greenland! An hours flight away from Kulusuk, Then its a short ride to Tasiilaq, the most important city on Greenland’s eastern coast, with nearly 2000 inhabitants. It is located on the island of Ammassalik, in the fjord to which it owes its name. Surrounded by high mountains, and nestled in the crevice of the Ammassalik fjord, Tasiilaq enjoys surprisingly clement weather. No need to be a rugged backpacker, the city has a comfortable hotel and even chalets for rent. Not far from the Arctic Circle, Tasiilaq is the ideal point of entry for a first discovery of the Great North. Now all you have left to do is reserve a few excursions out of Tasiilaq!
This trip is available from February to October.

Hiking around Tasiilaq
There are a number of hiking trails close to the hotel. There are many shorter day hikes, but we can also reserve longer more challenging hikes of you wish. These will bring you to the peaks that overlook the bay and offer spectacular views of the ice floes.
Dog-sledding Excursion
In winter, you must experience Greenland’s traditional mode of transportation. Less noisy and more picturesque than snowmobiles this is the authentic way to get to know Greenland! Spend the day on one, or even several days. On the way, you’ll see ice fishermen and seal hunters and spend your nights in isolated establishments where you can meet the Inuits!
Snowmobile excursion
If you’re a speed demon and you want to cover more distance, a snowmobile is the better option. Accompanied by a guide, the Great North will send shivers down your spine!
Boat tour
Boat tours will have you navigating between the icebergs on eastern Greenland’s polar current. Clients often see seals and whales. You can also admire the glaciers jutting into the sea periodically discarding icebergs of all shapes and sizes.
Transfer to Ammassalik by boat then Ammassalik-Kulusuk transfer by helicopter and finally flight back to Reykjavik from Kulusuk.
