Albatros Arctic Circle - Greenland Brochure
Welcome to GREENLAND with Albatros With strong footholds in Kangerlussuaq and Ilulissat, we can provide your guests with a seamless experience of the epitome of Greenland. Three decades ago, we were one of the first travel operators to venture into the Arctic wilderness of Greenland. Today, we have cemented our presence in the form of accommodation, excursions and restaurants owned and operated by Albatros Arctic Circle and our staff, with local expertise and Arctic know-how. Søren Rasmussen Biologist, Expedition leader, Founder and Owner ARCTIC CIRCLE Greenland is a matchless, unique place, and we are determined to show guests from abroad how incredibly beautiful and untouched this great Arctic island is. We cherish the wide, open spaces, the long, dark winters only brightened by the sparkling snow, breathtaking Northern Lights (the Aurora Borealis), the short - and surprisingly green- summers lit by the midnight sun, the seemingly endless icescapes and the warmth of the Greenlandic people. Yes, the list is long and we could go on. We don’t just know Greenland’s history, the names of its birds, wildlife and its nature. We breathe the crisp, Arctic air and feel it coursing through our veins. We treasure the warmth and culture of its people, its rich history and beauty. Our passion for Greenland is all encompassing and reflected in everything we do. We have had offices In Greenland for decades. Our staff in Kangerlussuaq and Ilulissat has lived there for years, even decades, and many of them are born and raised there. We look forward to sharing our love and admiration for this magnificent country with you and your guests. Unforgettable experiences await!
