The Ilulissat Adventure

All year round Ilulissat offers breathtaking Arctic experiences.
 
The landscape itself is, of course, the greatest challenge. Depending of the season of the year, you can travel on foot, by boat, by sleigh drawn by huskies, by vehicle, on skis, or even by helicopter.
 
There are opportunities for fascinating tours of the icecap and the world's largest glacier, which produces 20 million tons of ice a day, for sailing and fishing in the fiord and Disko Bay, or in winter, for fishing through holes in the ice.
 
To assist the planning of your visit, check our table of activities during the year.
 
Experience the Inuit culture
 
Ilulissat has much to offer of cultural interest, such as folk dancing, museum visits, Greenlandic handicrafts, sealskin products, polar bear skins, narwhal teeth. . . .the list goes on.
 
The possibilities are numerous, but as soon as you step outside your hotel, the day's activities will be dictated by the weather.
 
So the final arrangements for your excursions, and the best time for you to encounter the real Greenland, will be made at the Hotel Arctic once you have made your decisions.
