What it was like out there
Whale safari, a midnight tour on the ice fjord, or a full day at Eqi Glacier. Here, our guests share what it was like to experience Ilulissat with us.
We watched the whales dive close to the boat, with the icebergs behind them. The guide knew these waters and knew exactly where to look.
It was almost midnight, and the light over the icebergs was completely still. You can tell they love their town. It rubs off.
The full-day tour is long, but worth every hour. We saw the glacier calve, and we could feel the crash through our whole bodies.
