There are no roads linking any of the towns and settlements in Greenland so travelling by boat is central to the Greenlandic way of life. The coastal passenger ship ‘Sarfaq Ittuk’, sails along the west coast from Ilulissat in the North to Narsaq in the green and fertile South, connecting these isolated communities, reuniting families and delivering essential goods. This is a slice of authentic Greenland, up close and personal showcasing the variety that this vast land can offer.

(Summer Brochure)
You do not have to be Bear Grylls to enjoy a thrilling combination of a land born out of fire and a country almost entirely covered in ice. It is the subject of much mirth as to how the countries two names could be so mismatched. Iceland is a geological wonder where volcanos, geysirs and waterfalls erupt out of the ground in a kaleidoscope of colour. On the other hand, just 20% of Greenland peeks out from under the ice-cap which, as another colossal force of nature, sculpts this land to equal and dramatic effect.
