WHAT YOU VISIT
Qaqortoq Iceberg Cruise and Story Telling
A cruise through the glassy sheltered waters of Qalerallit Glacier will bring you as close as safely possible to these magnificent glaciers, offering a firsthand look at nature's stunning sculptures. During the boat tour, glacier ice from the sea will be collected and used to craft refreshing drinks. As you sip your beverage, a knowledgeable guide will enlighten you about the ice's journey from snowfall on the onland icecap to becoming floating icebergs in the sea. Storytelling is also part of the experience. Guides will share local history and myths about the sea and Norsemen who settled around the Qaqortoq area in South Greenland.
PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES
Seabirds such as puffins and cormorants are common on the coastline while out in the ocean, humpback, minke and fin whales make their home here from July to mid-September.
WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
You'll witness a towering river of otherworldly blue ice, hear the thunderous crack when an iceberg calves into the tidewater and gaze out over glassy sheltered waters.
