Greenland Cruise from Nuuk — 17 Days

Nuuk, Greenland

Nuuk is Greenland’s capital, where Arctic scale meets the pace of a working town. Set beside the vast Nuuk Fjord, it pairs brightly painted houses with modern architecture and a lively harbor. Visit the Greenland National Museum to see the 500-year-old Qilakitsoq mummies and objects tracing Inuit life. Then look toward Sermitsiaq, the landmark mountain rising beyond the water. Nuuk rewards travelers seeking Greenlandic culture alongside its dramatic landscapes.

Sisimiut, Greenland

Set just north of the Arctic Circle, Sisimiut is Greenland’s second-largest town and a working fishing port. Brightly painted homes rise above the harbor. Boats and fishing vessels keep the waterfront firmly connected to daily life. At Sisimiut Museum, historic buildings and collections reveal Inuit heritage and the town’s colonial past. From town, trails open onto Arctic landscapes of mountains, lakes and broad tundra.

Fishing remains central to local life, while brightly painted homes cluster above a harbor facing the Davis Strait.

Baffin Island, Canada

On Baffin Island, Canada’s largest island, the Arctic feels immediate: vast fjords, sculpted cliffs and tundra reach the horizon. Nunavut’s Inuit communities offer a living connection to the North, shaped by deep knowledge, language and tradition. Depending on your landing, look for seabirds, seals or whales, and allow time for weather to set the pace. Here, the reward is not a checklist. The reward is perspective: a place where light, ice and distance shape each day.
