Arctic cruise from Greenland to Canada and Northern Lights
Itinerary
Nuuk (Godthaab)
Navigate parts of the legendary Northwest Passage, a route filled with towering icebergs as you set sail from Greenland, the iceberg capital of the world. Immerse yourself in the Arctic landscape as you explore the rarely visited ancestral lands of Inuit in Newfoundland and uncover the history of an early Norse settlement, believed to be Leif Erikson’s. Conclude your journey in Halifax, Nova Scotia, where you can explore the city’s rich history.
Nuuk, meaning “the cape”, was Greenland’s first town (1728). Started as a fort and later mission and trading post some 240 kilometers south of the Arctic Circle, it is the current capital. Almost 30% of Greenland’s population lives in the town. Not only does Nuuk have great natural beauty in its vicinity, but there are Inuit ruins, Hans Egede’s home, the parliament, and the Church of our Saviour as well. The Greenlandic National Museum has an outstanding collection of Greenlandic traditional dresses, as well as the famous Qilakitsoq mummies. The Katuaq Cultural Center’s building was inspired by the undulating Northern Lights and can house 10% of Nuuk’s inhabitants.
