Remote Greenland Itineraries

I developed these relationships and knowledge of remote Greenland over 13 trips in the past 9 years and description below should help guide your decision on whether a Greenland adventure is right for you.


2026 Departures

 

Trips to Ittoqqortoormiit [Winter 2026] from 100,000.- DKK

Overview:

Our expertise is the remotest places on earth and in Greenland and our group trips for the next few years will be exclusively in Ittoqqortoormiit (Scoresbysund), the largest fjord system in the world. It’s not for the faint of heart and we are literally at the edge of the earth. Due to limited facilities, we can only accommodate 5 people max.

  • Ittoqqortoormiit - Cultural Expedition and Wildlife Experience in Remote Greenland ( 14-16 days, from 100.000 DKK per person)

    • Possible sightings of Polar Bear, Walrus, Narwhal, Arctic Hare, Sled Dog, Various Birds with local hunters and one of the only licensed Polar Bear viewing guides in Greenland

      • Transportation will be mostly snowmobile, tougher on body than doglsedding, and boats

        • 2 Departures:

          • Late April (Dogsledding expedition available)

          • Mid May (Photography)

  • Ittoqqortoormiit - Special Full Eclipse Trip - Contact Us ASAP since space is extremely limited

    • Transportation will be boat and ATV

      • August 2026 - Meet in Reykjavik or Akureyri Iceland

Detail:

This is a special interest trip. I will be welcoming groups in cohorts no greater than 5 people from Late April until Late May 2026 depending on areas of interest. The emphasis for Ittoqqortoormiit is generally for those interested in camping on ice, extreme experiences, subsistence lifeways (also known as “life on the edge”) hunting, wildlife - polar bears and narwhals etc. but overland rather than the luxury expedition cruises.

Due to the town’s remoteness, it’s impossible to produce a day to day itinerary because so much is based on flight delays, weather, wind, safety, ice conditions, wildlife movements, and availability. What’s best is to think about what kinds of things you might want to do or see in advance and we will see if it’s possible with the locals and elders.

Respecting the way of life here is paramount. You will not be welcome in this town unless you respect the fact that they have to survive off hunting marine mammals. This includes the polar bear, which has a quota of 35 animals per year in the town. From experience, polar bear viewing is best after hunting season (when the last animal for the year has been caught) so around May is good. Narwhals might arrive in May as well but you may not see one alive - full disclosure. They’re elusive and locals need that sustenance desperately because of the nutrients in the skin, including vitamin C - invaluable when you live somewhere where you cannot grow fruits and vegetables. Same goes for walrus. You can learn more about hunting in Greenland on stat.gl, the Statistics Greenland website.

More information on our videos and my blog. It’s a destination many people don’t know of and there isn’t much of substance online. The best resources are books like Carsten Egevang’s and other researchers and anthropologists. I’m a wealth of knowledge on this destination so if you’re unable to do a trip with us, you can consult with me to help you plan your own trip. Rates are detailed on the contact page.

As this is low capacity and special interest, please schedule a call with me or message me if you’re interested and want to learn more.

Scouting trip completed in 2022. Second trip completed in 2025.

Why go with Icebergchick? One word: fixer

While it is true that you can take a look at my images and the itinerary and attempt to recreate it for yourself for slightly less money, you will not be able to replicate the experience. I recently learned about the term “fixer” when a major broadcaster reached out to me about a project in 2023. They needed me because no normal traveler (or producer) can pull together on their own what a “fixer” can do. I have access to people and situations that simply aren’t available to the usual tourists.

My 100% local vendors and I deliver experiences that no typical traveler could ever hope to arrange on their own. If you can dream up something you want to do, we will make it happen provided it’s legal and ethical.

Vendors

I support small business where possible. Please see the vendors section for more information and how to support these businesses.
