The snowmobile has become a very frequent mean of<br />
transport in <strong>Arctic</strong> countries, because it adapts to a<br />
wide variety of terrains and allows quick access to the<br />
remotest places. We will ride these vehicles in the arctic<br />
night and enjoy breathtaking views after going up the<br />
hills that dominate the Ilulissat skyline. From there, no<br />
sound or light polution so we can fully experience the<br />
winter nights.<br />
In the middle of the wilderness, where silence is all<br />
around us, we will have hot drinks and biscuits, tell Inuit<br />
stories and talk about the nature and lifestyle of <strong>Greenland</strong>.<br />
And if Sila allows us, we will witness the spectacular<br />
phenomenon of the Northern Lights from our scenic<br />
viewpoint.<br />
INFORMATION<br />
This tour is on a shared basis with<br />
a driver and guest per snowmobile.<br />
All participants driving must have a<br />
valid driving license, either for car<br />
or motorcycle.<br />
The duration of our activities includes<br />
the time to gear-up/ dressup,<br />
safety briefings and transfers to<br />
departure points.<br />
From mid-April, the daylight is<br />
longer, so our tours will be during<br />
the sunset and not when the night<br />
is dark.<br />
No previous experience is required. We provide all the<br />
equipment and our experienced guide will teach how to<br />
drive the snowmobile.<br />
Please note that due to unpredictable weather and<br />
conditions during winter, the itinerary of this tour is<br />
subject to change. While it is our goal to deliver the<br />
best tour experience possible, the safety of our clients<br />
is always our first priority.<br />
