Connect with the heart and soul of a vibrant community. Whether you're meeting friendly locals, encountering heirloom cultures, engaging with Native peoples, exploring hidden corners, or discovering beloved eateries, let lasting memories begin with warmth, hospitality, and genuine connection.
Visit a Greenlandic home and hear the story of the host's life in the Arctic.
Kaffemik is a Greenlandic tradition you must experience. This social gathering usually takes place when locals are celebrating a special event or milestone, such as birthdays, the first day of school, new additions to the family, or someone's confirmation, but the real enjoyment comes from simply being together.
A warm welcome awaits you at a local home. Your friendly host greets you with an opportunity to learn firsthand what it means to live in the Arctic. Hear all about Greenlandic life and traditions while enjoying a slice of Greenlandic cake accompanied by tea and coffee.
Notes:
Bring a mosquito net to cover your head and face, and insect repellent. Wear comfortable walking shoes. Dress warmly in layers with a windproof and waterproof outer layer. Tour requires walking to and from the host's home — approximately 15 minutes each way.
