From Iceland, you are only a short hop to Greenland, possibly the most fascinating island in the world! Head over to Amassalik for a two-night stop and learn about this delightful yet remote country. Known to local residents as Tasiilaq, the largest town in East Greenland with about 1,400 residents. Ammassalik is only a 10-minutes by helicopter from Kulusuk, your gateway airport from Iceland. During this flight you will experience one of the most scenic journeys imaginable as you cross the ice-filled sea separating these two mountainous islands. Optional excursions include an iceberg cruise with possible whale spotting, boat trips to the Sermilik fjord and Apusiaajik glacier and walks to explore a valley and its arctic summer flora. The town itself lies just south of the Arctic Circle and boasts long hours of daylight in the summer and the splendour of the northern lights in the winter.

Day 1: A short flight from the Reykjavik Domestic Airport to Kulusuk where you will board a helicopter Tasiilaq. Accommodation is confirmed here for two nights.

Day 2: This remote community is small and quiet, full of history and culture and a wonderful place to hike, wander and completely relax. Optional excursions are booked locally at the hotel.

Day 3: Your return flight to Iceland will depart in the early afternoon and arrive in time for dinner in Reykjavik.
