About this tour
GUIDET TOUR
This tour starts from the small harbor Itilleq 4 km from Igaliku. We sail to the underwater moraine at the mouth of the Qooroq Ice Fjord. Many icebergs run aground here, forcing us to weave our way among these colossal pieces of ice until we reach the fjord, where we are rewarded with a breathtaking view of thousands of icebergs, sheer cliff faces and an enormous glacier.
The glacier calves about 200,000 tons of ice at day into the fjord. Many of these icebergs have a rich turquoise colour. In the fjord, we have time to enjoy the panorama, turn off the engine and drift quietly with the current. The absolute silence is only interrupted by the sound of the distant icebergs as they break free from the glacier front and come crashing down into the fjord.
On the trip, we gather ice for our cocktails and listen to the popping sounds as countless, tiny thousand-year-old compressed air bubbles escape from the ice cubes in our glasses.
The trip includes
- Boat tour from Itilleq to the Qooroq Ice Fjord
- Refreshment served with ice that is over 1,000 years old
- Time to enjoy the panoramic views and the drifting silence among the icebergs
