For those not up for walking or hiking and for those looking to get acquainted with Sisimiut in an agreeably snappy fashion, this tour by van or bus may be the ideal abbreviated introduction you're seeking.
Your local guide is perfectly placed to tell you all about everyday life in Sisimiut and to put its history into a modern perspective for you. From the transportation, watch for highlights and landmark buildings as you pass.
Pause just outside the city, where many of the inhabitants' sled dogs are kept. If you're lucky, you'll have a chance to say hello to some of the puppies allowed to run about here. Your enthusiasm will be matched by theirs.
You'll also have a chance to leave the transportation to take photos of Sisimiut from atop the hill, with an incredible view of the sea and the mountains south of Sisimiut in the background.
Notes:
Tour consists mainly of sightseeing from the transportation. Stops are brief and participants can remain in the vehicle. Puppies are likely to be seen; however, this is not guaranteed. It is essential that you wear warm, layered clothing to fully enjoy and participate in this excursion. Outer layer should be windproof and waterproof. Bring gloves, a warm hat, and a scarf.
