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.
Trek ancient coastal trails along the breathtaking Kuannersooq Fjord, scanning the skies for Greenland's iconic white-tailed eagles and the waters for breaching whales. A bucket-list Arctic wildlife encounter in one of the world's most remote landscapes.
Board a private rigid inflatable boat and carve through the mirror-still waters of Paamiut's fjord system, weaving between drifting icebergs and towering basalt cliffs. This is Greenland at its most primal and most beautiful — a genuine once-in-a-lifetime moment.
Step inside the striking yellow museum at the heart of Paamiut and immerse yourself in millennia of Greenlandic Inuit history, from ancient hunting tools to intricately restored traditional garments. For the intellectually curious traveller, this is the cultural soul of the settlement.
Strike out into the raw Arctic wilderness above Paamiut on a guided summit hike, earning jaw-dropping aerial views of the fjord, open ocean, and the icescape beyond. This is Greenland hiking at its most rewarding — vast, silent, and utterly untouched.
Join an intimate small-group boat excursion into the whale-rich waters surrounding Paamiut, where humpback, minke, and fin whales feed in the nutrient-dense Arctic seas. Few destinations on Earth offer this calibre of cetacean encounter from a cruise port.
