Greenland: Your Questions Answered
-
Will I see wildlife?
You may see some wildlife - musk oxen and birdlife particularly - however Greenland isn’t renowned for wildlife in the same way as Svalbard. You would be very lucky to see a polar bear, and only in east Greenland. If seeing wildlife is your primary objective then there are better places in the Arctic.

What is the average trip length to Greenland?
The average is around 10 - 11 days in length. Many voyages combine either East Greenland with Svalbard, or West Greenland with the Canadian Arctic.
-

When is the best time to book?
