Embark on an unforgettable journey with Arctic Umiaq Line aboard the Sarfaq Ittuk, a beloved local passenger ship, as we take you on a 3-day voyage that unveils the hidden treasures of Greenland. Our 'Discover Greenland's Hidden Treasure' voyage is designed to offer you a unique Arctic experience. Departing late from the charming town of Ilulissat, you'll sail under the Arctic sun and witness the breathtaking landscapes of Greenland's west coast. As the ship glides through icy waters, you'll have the opportunity to marvel at towering glaciers and pristine fjords, immersing yourself in the rugged beauty of this remote region. On the second day, we'll arrive in Uummannaq, a picturesque settlement perched on an island surrounded by stunning cliffs and crystalline waters. Spend 6 hours exploring this charming town, its colorful houses, and the iconic heart-shaped mountain that overlooks the settlement. It's a perfect opportunity to connect with the local culture and capture the essence of life in the Arctic. As the sun dips below the horizon, we'll set sail once again, retracing our route back to Ilulissat.
