About the Tour
New tour. The mystic lure of Greenland!
Greenland is a paradise for wildlife lovers! Expect to see iconic animals in their natural habitat such as reindeer, musk oxen, walruses, arctic foxes, arctic hares, humpback and bowhead whales, as well as majestic polar bears. While we always keep a safe distance from the animals, you’ll still get to see them up close. During the polar day, you will have a maximum amount of daylight to explore and view wildlife.
Get the best photo ops from the deck of our small expedition ship and during Zodiac cruises, hikes ashore and while kayaking. I will help you get that perfect shot so you can bring home the best pictures to remember the adventure.
Birders will be excited to spot great northern divers, barnacle geese, pink-footed geese, common eiders, king eiders, gyrfalcons, snowy owls, sanderlings, ptarmigan and ravens. Ask our expedition team and onboard specialists everything you ever wanted to know about your favorite animals and learn about their unique life in the Arctic.
About Greenland
Breathtaking wilderness, charming towns and contemporary Inuit culture – Greenland is a unique place with its very own charm. It’s the prime destination for any Arctic explorer. History buffs will love the Viking heritage of the region, nature lovers will appreciate the untouched and rough beauty of the island and wildlife lovers will appreciate its rich fauna. Did you know that Greenland is the best place to see the Aurora Borealis? On the late summer cruises, we hit the best spots around the coast to see this majestic spectacle.
It’s the biggest island on the planet, has huge icebergs, is home to many iconic wild animals and offers prime opportunities to see the northern lights – Greenland is a must on your travel bucket list! With over 2 million square kilometers (770,000 square miles) and only 56,000 inhabitants, it’s an untouched paradise for wildlife and nature, with most of the island located above the Arctic Circle.
Many of Greenland’s gems are inaccessible to everyday travelers and only a small expedition ship will get you there. Board one of our Zodiac tours or join the kayak club and paddle at your own speed. Whether you are a photographer, wildlife lover, adventurer or simply a connoisseur of remote nature, Greenland will create lasting memories!

Important Note
This is a photographic tour, not a workshop, you will need to have some knowledge of how to operate your camera. Even though I am helping with the settings, you should be familiar with your camera, and have patience.
