Activity options vary depending on destination and operator. Activity level is determined by the range and intensity of activities you choose to participate in. Discuss with your Trip Planner which options are best for you.
A charter flight takes you from Keflavik, Iceland, to Kangerlussuaq, Greenland. Then transfer you to the port, where the MS Seaventure anchors. Embarkation is conducted via Zodiac boats. Your adventure begins in the evening.
Just 200 people live in the small town of Attu, near Disko Bay. Use the day for a hike through the unique nature and, with a bit of luck, observe the local wildlife up close.
On the third day of the cruise, one of the smallest settlements in Disko Bay awaits you in Ilimanaq, with its 50 inhabitants. The idyllic village, with its colorful houses and picturesque surroundings, is still mainly inhabited by hunters and fishermen and can look back on a rich history. Learn more about this town on your guided hike (included). Afterward, the journey continues towards the impressive Equip Glacier.
You are about 311 miles (500 km) north of the Arctic Circle. Uummanaq’s landmark is the heart-shaped mountain of the same name, at the foot of which nestle numerous colorful houses, winding paths, and countless sled dogs. The small town of Ikerasak, with a population of just under 230, is located near Uummannaq, which is considered one of the most beautiful towns in Greenland. Weather permitting, go ashore and explore the town on a city walk (included).
In the morning, drive through the Karrat Fjord. With a bit of luck, you can see icebergs calving as you drive through the fjord landscape—an impressive and breathtaking experience. In the afternoon, the ship anchors in front of Nuugaatsiaq, a place with a tragic history: in 2017, the village was hit by a big tsunami. The place has not been inhabited since then. If weather permits, you can join a hike and participate in a zodiac cruise (both included).
On the sixth day, visit the smallest and largest towns on your trip. With just 11 inhabitants, Kangerluk is the smallest town you can visit. Aasiaat is the heart of an archipelago of low-lying islands. What Aasiaat lacks in vertical height, it makes up for with its huge coastline. In both settlements, guided hikes will be offered (included).
Many years ago, the town you are visiting today was a fishing and trading town. Nowadays, there are only around 100 inhabitants in the picturesque fishing village. Explore the town on a guided hike (included).
Day 8: Kangerlussuaq | Disembark
1 Breakfast
Back in Kangerlussuaq early in the morning. Now it is time to say goodbye to the MS Seaventure. Your charter flight will take you back from Greenland to Iceland in the early evening.

Our guide and driver were very good with their knowledge and were very helpful with our questions. It was a very pleasant visit that would have been impossible to do on our own. Hotels and restaurants were fantastic. The special places we got to go to, like the kitchens, were great. Enjoyed the entire trip!
The immediate response and knowledge of the tours. Jess was terrific with accessing our budget and type of tour.

This is the 5th trip Kassandra has planned for us, and if it is anything like the last four, it will be beyond perfect. Kassandra listens intently to each traveler's individual interests, and blends that information beautifully into a spectacular trip that is made to order. She is completely open to suggestions and uses her vast knowledge to enhance the experience. I am sure that as soon as we return from our latest adventure, Kassandra will be busy planning our next perfect excursion!
