Itinerary
Arrive into Ilulissat and transfer to hotel. After hotel check-in you will enjoy a guided city walk. Your experienced guide will show you the most important sites of this charming little colourful town located next to the UNESCO Ilulissat Icefjord.
Ilulissat is the third largest town municipality in Greenland with more than 5000 inhabitants. About 4500 people lives in the town Ilulissat, and 500 people lives in the four remaining small settlements: Ilimanaq, Oqaatsut, Qeqertaq and Saqqaq.

After breakfast, join the 3 hours whale safari tour around Ilulissat. You will search for the giant of the sea, and chances for seeing eg. the humpback whale is very good in summer time. Spend time cruising among the icebergs in the search of the whales and hopefully see them before returning to Ilulissat.
You are transferred to the airport in the mid morning for flight from Ilulissat where the tour ends.
