Come along this tour, discovering the hidden corners and gems of Ilulissat city! This tour is for anyone curious for what life 300 kilometers above the arctic circle is like, and how Ilulissat has come to be, by learning about its past.

Ilulissat was founded in 1741, and is today Greenlands third largest town, with over 4500 inhabitants. Ilulissat was named after the many wonders of ice, floating around in the Icefjord and means iceberg.

Your guide of the day will tell you the story of Ilulissat, about the Greenlandic culture and the modern life 300 kilometers above the arctic circle. While strolling through town, we will stop by the local fish market ’’brættet’’’, pass the arctic explorer Knud Rasmussen's childhood home and the old wooden Zion church.
