Experience Ilulissat (Days 2-5 long)

Ilulissat means icebergs, which is rather self-explanatory once you get to see the beautiful Ice Fjord and the numerous icebergs majestically floating around

1½-Hour Dog Sled Ride

1½-Hour Dog Sled Ride

One of the most famous Greenlandic icons and a thousand-year-old tradition for the Inuit.

The dog sled is one of the most famous Greenlandic icons and a thousand-year-old tradition for the Inuit.

Not many vehicles have survived such a long period without a change in appearance and technology: a pack of happy dogs in harnesses tied to a constructed wooden sled. It is hard to explain this experience – it has to be tried.

This trip often takes place in flat terrain on a plain near Ilulissat. In addition to the driver, you are two participants on each sled, so if you have booked the tour alone, you may share a sled with another person.

All dogs are different, so if you are out with family and friends, we cannot guarantee that you will ride together for the entire trip. If you have neck or back problems or are immobile, this trip is not for you.

Participants must be 12 years and older.

A renowned hotel in the northernmost region, Hotel Arctic offers luxurious amenities, stunning views of icebergs, and exquisite dining options.
