What to expect in Greenland
-
Icebergs the size of towns
Greenland's glaciers produce some of the largest icebergs on Earth. Cruising between them in a small boat, hearing the ice crack, is humbling in the best way.
-
Small settlements, big welcome
Colourful villages of a few hundred people, kayaks drying outside houses and dog sleds waiting for winter. Visits are a window into modern Inuit life.
-
Remote and unpredictable
Few roads, changeable weather and huge distances mean plans can shift. Expedition teams build flexibility into every day — part of what makes it an adventure.
-
Silence you can hear
Away from the settlements, the loudest sounds are calving ice and the wind. Many travelers say it's the most peaceful place they have ever been.
Your Greenland tour questions, answered
- When is the best time to visit Greenland?
June to September is the main season for expeditions and fjord cruises. July and August are the warmest months; September brings autumn colours and the chance of northern lights.
- How do I get to Greenland?
Most travelers fly via Copenhagen or Reykjavík, or join an expedition ship that departs from Iceland or Svalbard.
- Do I need a visa for Greenland?
Greenland is part of the Kingdom of Denmark but has its own entry rules and is not part of the Schengen Area. Check the requirements for your nationality with official Danish or Greenlandic sources before you travel.
- What wildlife can I see in Greenland?
Whales, seals, musk oxen, Arctic foxes and many seabirds. Polar bears live mainly in the north and east and are only occasionally seen.
- How should I dress for Greenland?
Layers: thermal base layers, fleece, a windproof and waterproof jacket, a warm hat and gloves. Even in summer the weather near the ice can be cold.
