Land and Cruise
This trip is not a conventional cruise. The MV Sarfaq Ittuk is a comfortable yet functional Passenger and Cargo Ferry. It sails the coastal waters carrying locals to visit their loved ones and tourists, eager to explore the narrow straights and open waters, whilst observing Greenland's glorious natural landscapes and wildlife. Sailing plays a hugely important role in the Greenlandic infrastructure and a cruise along the West Coast, travelling on the same vessel as the locals, is a fabulous way of sampling the diversity of this beautiful, dramatic country and its people.
