Greenland is one of those places that leaves a mark.


It’s wild and remote, yes—but also rich with life, tradition, and moments that stay with you long after the trip ends. Its dramatic beauty and deep sense of culture still feel like a secret, which is exactly what makes it so special for the travelers we work with.


Whether it’s your first time exploring this part of the world or you’re coming back to see more, HX Hurtigruten Expeditions offers an experience that goes beyond the expected.


You’ll travel alongside an expedition team that doesn’t just know Greenland—they love it. They’ll walk with you through villages lined with vibrant homes, guide you through the quiet majesty of Vaigat Sound, and help you spot wildlife from sea kayaks, hiking trails, or the comfort of your ship. It’s immersive, responsible travel—done right.

Greenland

Nature as it should be seen

This vast, interconnected ecosystem is most varied in the ice-free periphery of the island. Here you’ll have a chance to spot an incredible array of wildlife: everything from Musk Oxen and Arctic Foxes to White-tailed Eagles and Snowy Owls. Humpback, Blue and Fin Whales teem along the coastline, while Polar Bears are occasionally spotted in the Northeast Greenland National Park.

Close-knit communities

The people of Greenland share a love of their land and maintain pride in its traditions. To get to know them better, you may be invited to a kaffemik — a casual social gathering at someone’s home, where you’ll enjoy strong, hot coffee and delicious food. Thanks to our strong connections with local communities, you may even get to see some beautiful national dress and hear traditional songs.
