MAGIC OF THE<br />

SEA &<br />

MIDNIGHT SUN<br />

5 DAYS TOUR<br />

SEASON : JUNE - AUGUST<br />

During this voyage, we visit some of the<br />

most beautiful parts of <strong>Greenland</strong>, the ice<br />

sheet, settlements, and get up close with<br />

icebergs and the midnight sun.<br />

Join us for an unforgettable adventure to <strong>Greenland</strong>, where<br />

we commence the journey by getting close to the local<br />

ice wall of Kangerlussuaq to get an understanding of the<br />

mighty ice sheet that covers 80 per cent of the country.<br />

In Ilulissat, we will visit the two nearby settlements just<br />

South and North of the World Capital of Icebergs. We will<br />

get adventurous in our kayaks with a soft outing in the<br />

protected Oqaatsut bay, followed by a kayak finale among<br />

huge icebergs in the magic of the midnight sun the next<br />

day. In the small settlement of Ilimanaq we are invited to<br />

enjoy a meal in a private <strong>Greenland</strong>ic home to sample local<br />

specialties. We stay at our comfortable hotel in Ilulissat for<br />

three nights.<br />
