Creator's Key Takeaways
Greenland was a bucket list destination for us and seeing it by cruise ship was an amazing way to do it.
The scenery in the fur was amazing. Plenty of interesting wildlife moments as well.
The view from the top was fantastic. You get a 360 degree view of the town, including the colorful houses and the bay.
The color is amazing. That deep blue. We also saw so many waterfalls.

IS IT WORTH IT? We traveled to Greenland aboard the Norwegian Star to find out. From the colorful streets of the capital city Nuuk, to the foggy fishing village of Paamiut, and finally, the breathtaking Prince Christian Sound. Our video shows DIY walking tours in Nuuk and Paamiut, but if you rather book a guided tour, we recommend the following choices: https://www.viator.com/Nuuk/d4495-ttd?pid=P00101840&mcid=42383&medium=link&medium_version=selector In this video, we take you on a complete tour of these remote Arctic ports. You’ll see exactly what it costs to eat in Greenland (it’s not cheap), climb the famous "Watchtower" for the best views in Paamiut, and sail past massive blue glaciers that are over 1,600 feet deep. We also captured some funny wildlife moments (watch for the seal!) and navigate narrow fjords where the cliffs feel close enough to touch. In This Video: * Nuuk (Capital City): Exploring the Colonial Harbour, the "Mother of the Sea" statue, and modern downtown. * Paamiut: A tender boat adventure to visit the historic Fredens Kirke and hike the wooden boardwalks. * Prince Christian Sound: The absolute highlight of the cruise. Scenic cruising past the Sermeq Kujalleq and Kangerluk glaciers.
