On the 3rd day travel to Eqip Sermia, a vast glacier dwarfing even some mountains with its height. Eqip Sermia is one of the worlds largest calving glaciers, meaning that sometimes big chunks of ice crack and fall off, creating huge waves, the birth of an iceberg.
On the 4th day visit Qullissat, an abandoned mining settlement now turned ghost town. Get a glimpse into the once busy town housing more than 1600 people, now housing noone. A town at its time of closing affected not only the whole population, but all of Greenland, a famous song, of the same name, has been written about this place by famous Greenlandic band Sumé, of colonization and anger. Qullissat a settlement of importance.

On the 6th day you will get to experience the beautiful marine mammals of Greenland as you go on an exciting whale safari. Near the city of Aasiaat is where you will be brought. Experience the mysterious phenomenon of jumping whales, and get to greet curious whales.
On the last day return to Ilulissat, today you will be spending time going between enormous icebergs, some huge, some small, some in weird shapes, some with holes and some, where the sun hits it just right, showing you all the hues of nature’s deep blue.
