Semi escorted tour Ilulissat Town of Icebergs in Greenland

 Welcome to Kangerlussuaq and Ilulissat! Beautifully situated in the Disko Bay at the entrance to the Ice Fjord, close

 to the gigantic icebergs from the world's most productive glacier. Located 300 kilometers north of the Polar Circle,

 Ilulissat is today the biggest and most modern town in the Disko Bay Area, where ancient and modern Greenland

 meet in the most harmonic way. The Ice Fjord surrounds Ilulissat with gigantic formations of icebergs, calving glaciers,

 and isolated settlements. Experience the Midnight Sun illuminating the ice until late into the night, the ever-changing

 scenery during an unforgettable Midnight Cruise through the Icefjord. Choose from a variety of optional excursions:

 Disko Bay, by helicopter over the Icefjord and Ilulissat Glacier, the Isle of Disko, Husky sleigh ride, cruising, sailing

 and fishing in the fjord. Cruise to the Eqip Glacier, the world's largest glacier, producing 20 million tons of ice a day!

 Enjoy the Arctic wild life around Kangerlussuaq on a Musk Oxen & Reindeer Safari - perhaps see Arctic foxes,

 reindeer and musk oxen or explore the Ice Cap by 4x4.
