Tour Overview
Experience life on the edge of the UNESCO-listed Ilulissat Icefjord on this Premium eight-day adventure. See where colourful houses and working harbours meet, setting the scene for a journey shaped by ice. Walk through Sermermiut to uncover 4000 years of Inuit history. Visit the Icefjord Centre to learn about this frozen landscape’s scientific and cultural significance. Cruise to the massive Eqi Glacier and witness active calving icebergs (and maybe even a whale or two!). Sail to Disko Island to walk on volcanic terrain, unwind in a Nordic sauna overlooking Disko Bay and kayak through floating icebergs. Gain insight into small-settlement living in Ilimanaq and enjoy your Feature Stay, where each cliff-perched bungalow feels like it’s floating among the icebergs just outside your window.
