Greenland

Untouched wilderness

 

The nature of Greenland is gigantic, stunning, untouched and untouchable. Its vast Arctic landscapes create an unforgettable escape into the wild, cruising among towering icebergs, exploring spectacular fjords, and watching for whales beneath the midnight sun or Northern Lights. Remote, breathtaking, and full of adventure, Greenland invites your corporate groups to experience nature on a truly extraordinary scale. Its ice cap, the second largest in the world after Antartica, covers 4 fifths of the island.

The vast majority of the population (57,000 inhabitants only) lives along the western and southern coasts. The vibrant Greenlandic culture, with its warm hospitality and connection to nature, and the life philosophy of the Inuits are an inspiration for our "modern" societies. A destination made for spoilt incentive clients, who have seen and done it all. Greenland will stay with them as one of their most remarkable travel experiences.

Nuuk

With around 20,000 inhabitants, Nuuk is Greenland’s capital and largest city, combining modern Arctic life with spectacular nature, colorful neighborhoods, and a strong Greenlandic cultural identity.

 

As the seat of Greenland's government and most important businesses, it is undergoing a rapid development, with a brand new international airport that opened in November 2024. Wander along its colorful waterfront historical district, explore local art, enjoy a "kaffemik" of local food delicacies, and venture beyond the city to experience towering mountains, amazing Arctic wildlife and pristine fjords.

 

Nuuk is the entrance gate to the second largest fjord system in the world (spoiler alert, the largest one is also in Greenland). The national museum of the town, that showcases the Inuit lifestyle, culture and beliefs, is fascinating.

Ilulissat

​Ilulissat is located on Greenland's west coast, 600 km north of Nuuk. Set beside the UNESCO-listed Ilulissat Icefjord, this colorful coastal town of 5,000 inhabitants offers an unforgettable encounter with towering icebergs, dramatic landscapes, and the timeless culture of Greenland.

 

 

It sits alongside Disko Bay, one of the most striking corners of the planet, where you can cruise among floating giants of ice. Approaching these quiet giants is a real marvel, as your eyes get lost in their various shades of blue and white. Another natural beauty of the region is the spectacular Eki glacier, that you reach during a day cruise through stunning pristine landscapes.

Ilulissat's beautiful Icefjord center is the starting point of amazing hikes through rugged Arctic scenery, where you watch the ever-changing light transform the fjord and the icebergs. Ilulissat's historic district, made of charming colored wooden houses, makes for perfect walks by the seaside. With its unique blend of adventure, nature, and local charm, Ilulissat is a destination unlike anywhere else on Earth.

Sisimiut

Sisimiut is roughly the same size as Ilulissat (5,000 inhabitants) and is rapidly developing as a new touristic hotspot. Known for its gorgeous backcountry of impressive mountains, Sisimiut is Greenland's adventure town, with great skiing, husky sledding, snowshoeing and snowmobiling.

Its cute historic district boasts colorful wooden houses, surrounded by rugged mountains and the vastness of the sea. Several Inuit settlements are located just a boat ride away, for fascinating encounters with local fishermen.

Just north of the Arctic Circle, Sisimiut is a gateway to unforgettable experiences and adventures — from hiking across dramatic coastal landscapes and exploring ancient Inuit heritage to kayaking, sailing, and experiencing the magic of the midnight sun. With its lively local culture, breathtaking scenery, and welcoming atmosphere, Sisimiut offers an authentic taste of Greenland where adventure and tradition come together.

Kangerlussuaq

Kangerlussuaq must be one of the most peculiar towns on Earth. It sits in the middle of a mountain rift where the US built a huge airstrip in 1941, surrounded by rugged mountains and barren tundra landscapes. Its prefabricated buildings and military warehouses look like they are straight out of a Mars colonisation movie.

 

Located a few kilometers from the edge of the ice sheet, Kangerlussuaq is the gateway to the Arctic wilderness, where vast landscapes, endless skies, and extraordinary wildlife create an unforgettable adventure. Local suppliers set-up camps on the ice-cap for unforgettable nights outdoors.

 

It is a remote destination that offers a front-row seat to some of the Arctic’s most spectacular scenery. You will spot musk oxen and reindeer in the wild, and experience the magical northern lights dancing across the winter sky. For travelers seeking raw nature, solitude, and true Arctic adventure, Kangerlussuaq is a destination that feels wonderfully far from the ordinary.

Qaqortoq

Qaqortoq is a colorful gem in southern Greenland, where charming streets, dramatic mountains, and sparkling fjords create a truly unforgettable setting.

 

 

This is where the viking explorers first landed when they discovered Greenland, because the seas are more calm along the Southern coasts, and the "warmer" temperatures make the region the only place possible for small-scale farming in the spring and summer. Several viking settlements and archeological remains can be found in the region.

 

Qaqortoq is South Greenland's biggest town. Its infrastructure is limited still, but wandering among its brightly painted houses, discovering its striking outdoor artworks carved into the town’s rocks, and experiencing the warmth of local life in its inviting communities are lovely experiences that you will not find anywhere else on Earth.

 

Surrounded by spectacular Arctic landscapes and rich Norse and Inuit heritage, Qaqortoq is the perfect place to slow down, explore, and experience the authentic character of southern Greenland.
