      Megan

      Traveler•Written November 2023

      We want to visit Nuuk to see the Greenland National Museum and art museum, as well as the Godthab Fjord. We want to visit Kangerlussuaq to see the ice cap and Sugarloaf Mountain. We also want to visit llulissat and Disko Bay. We are not sure about the time required - maybe 2 full days in each place?

    • TasermiutOperator•Written November 2023

      We can organize the flights to Nuuk, Kangerlussuaq and Ilulissat and we could also arrange the accommodation but not the activities in those places. Our trips are based in South Greenland and all our logistic is there, we don't have logistic or guides out of South Greenland.

    • TasermiutOperator•Written December 2023

      We can take care of the domestic flights to Nuuk, Kangerlussuaq and Ilulissat and also the accommodation to help you but we can't do the activities as we have no logistic there, as our trips are based in South Greenland.
