The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Walk the abandoned streets of a company town that once held the world's only cryolite mine, guided by a local historian who ties it to WWII's aluminum war.
A small private Zodiac glides beneath calved ice from the fjord's glaciers, weaving past nesting cliffs alive with kittiwakes and fulmars.
Climb the ridge above the flooded mine pit with a geologist who explains why this single deposit reshaped global aluminum production.
Trace faint stone foundations from early Norse farmers and later Inuit hunters with an archaeologist who reads the landscape like text.
A quiet uphill walk away from the settlement into open tundra where musk ox and Arctic hare are regularly sighted at a respectful distance.
A private tasting of traditional Greenlandic foods — seal, whale, musk ox — prepared and explained by a local cook aboard a small fishing boat or in the settlement.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
