Luxury Greenland Holidays

Why book your luxury Greenland holiday with us

Everything here is huge, from the fjords that cut deep into the shoreline to the city-sized icebergs of Disko Bay. It is a magical place where, in the summer months, residents of the capital Nuuk have been known to complain about the noise made by humpback whales in the bay, while in the winter, the massive skies are filled with glowing aurora.

There is evidence of nomadic hunters in this region dating as far back as 2,500BC and remains of the 6th century Dorset culture can still be seen. In the 10th century, the Vikings arrived, bringing Christianity and a link to Denmark that endures to this day.

Our experts will help you decide when and where to visit on your expedition to Greenland. Sailing through East Greenland will take you to Kangertittivaq (Scoresby Sund), the largest fjord system in the world. Icebergs, walrus and bowhead whales can all be seen in the daylight hours of autumn, while the aurora illuminate the night sky.

Southern Greenland is fast becoming a Mecca for hikers, climbers and kayakers – with landscapes that dwarf the likes of Patagonia, it’s easy to understand why a holiday in Greenland is becoming popular.

It’s fair to say that the west offers the most options for our clients in search of luxury adventure trips, from dog-sledding and snowmobiling to kayaking with humpbacks, camping on the icecap and setting sail for the Northwest Passage. So, what are you waiting for? Start planning your holidays in Greenland with cazenove+loyd.
