Greenland Tour & Trip Reviews

Most trip reviews tend to focus on some or all of these 5 key areas, not all of which may be relevant to you: the tour guide, travel company, service level, country or countries traveled in, and the trip itinerary.

Remember, just because you see a 1 star review doesn’t necessarily mean that person disliked the country.

The majority of positive reviews of Greenland travel focus on the breadth of outdoor adventure and natural opportunities to be found in this Arctic country.

Those who are prepared to be flexible - with regard to the weather, wildlife that might be seen or not seen, ice conditions, safety, etc. - have rated Greenland highly as an enjoyable destination. After all, many times, it’s that very unpredictability that leads to the greatest adventure and memories.

Many of the positive Greenland tour reviews also mention the value of a local, expert guide - provided by almost all of the tour companies that operate in the Arctic region. Their presence and advice along the way will prove invaluable in keeping travelers safe, immersed in culture and geography, well fed and happily accommodated.

Negative or lower-rated reviews of Greenland tours focus on dissatisfaction when a particular schedule is thwarted or certain wildlife is not seen. It’s important to remember that in such a rugged, remote location, it’s hard, if not impossible, to guarantee that an itinerary won’t be changed somewhat, depending on weather, ice conditions, safety concerns, etc.

In addition, travelers must be prepared for the high cost of travel in Greenland - those who were caught off guard by dining and accommodation prices may not have reviewed favorably their Greenland travel.
