Creator's Key Takeaways

the scenery is just incredible out there

it's quite something and so the ship is uh ice class which means you can push into some of the ice

this is the northernmost permanent settlement in Greenland just 65 people live here mostly part of an extended family who are hunters and they're Fishers

having my booked itinerary scrapped could have made for a terrible trip but as you've seen far from that as Greenland was fascinating no matter where we eventually went

I flew in on charter flight to the Kangerlussuaq Greenland, to join an expedition cruise on Hapag Lloyd around Greenland. It turned out to be an experience like no other that I have had, with ice beating us, incredible sights, twists, and turns, and just an incredible experience.
