Greenland : Traditional East Greenland

Departures: May - Sept Duration: 4 nights Price: from £749

Locked in by pack ice for most of the year, East Greenland is one of the last frontiers of the modern world. Virtually the only populated area on the vast east coast, the district of Ammassalik (encompassing Tasiilaq and Kulusuk) is only a two hour flight from Reykjavik and is the base for our ‘Arctic Summer’ add on, an ideal extension on a trip to Iceland.
