September 16 – 17, 2024– The Wild East Jagged peaks, tumbling glaciers, ice- laden landscapes, alpine vistas and the search for the King of the Arctic. We set out to explore the wild fjords of Greenland’s uninhabited east coast. In these isolated fjords, paleo-Inuit hunters and fishermen once lived off the land and the sea. Today, traces of these peoples can still be found against the backdrop of cascading glaciers and steep-walled mountains.

Marine mammals such as polar bears and humpback whales are frequently seen in these fjords. The alpine terrain is perfect for exploring by sea, land, and air. Hiking, paddling, and Zodiac cruises are all popular activities in the wild east.

The few villages in this region are home to Southern Greenlanders who have remained faithful to their hunting and fishing heritage. In Aappilattoq, guests can learn about the local culture and traditions, including hunting, fishing, and music.

If you are looking for the most iconic peaks of South Greenland, Tasermiut Fjord is the place to go. The 70-kilometer fjord is home to the impressive Sermeq glacier and the imposing peaks of Nalumasortoq and Ulamertorsuaq. Guests can go hiking or take a helicopter ride to enjoy the stunning scenery.

September 21-23 , 2024 – The Westlands –The Greenland Ice Sheet, Viking history, and the Kujataa UNESCO World Heritage site are all part of this contrast-filled journey.

The Western fjords are home to lush valleys and pastures, thanks to the warm microclimates that exist there. These microclimates have allowed South Greenlandic farming traditions to thrive, and many families still work their remote sheep farms today.

The Greenland Ice Sheet is also located in the West, and it is the largest mass of ice in the northern hemisphere. During the included Greenland Ice Sheet Experience, you will have the opportunity to explore the ice sheet, hike the surrounding foothills, and cruise or paddle through the azure ice-filled waters.

Before you depart for Reykjavik, you will spend a day visiting the sites surrounding Narsarsuaq, including the Kujataa UNESCO World Heritage Site. This site is a living history lesson in Viking farming, and you will also have the opportunity to visit the charming settlement of Qassiarsuk.

In Narsarsuaq, you can explore the remains of Brattahlíð, Erik the Red’s estate, and visit the museum. You can also hike to Signal Hill for a panoramic view of the town.
