It has always been a dream of mine to visit Greenland, see its natural wonders and explore the things to do in Greenland. In September 2018 I finally got the chance and flew to the capital to explore the things to do in Nuuk before going on a tour to the Greenland Ice Cap where I also saw the spectacular Northern Lights.
I chose Nuuk as it is a great base for independent travelers for several tour options, hikes and sights in and around the capital while also offering fairly reasonable prices. You can use this video as a guide for your visit to Greenland and you are free to leave more tips and recommendations for things to do in Nuuk in the comment section below!

Have had a dream ever since Geography Class in 4th Grade introduced us to Greenland. I have not stopped thinking about coming here just to look at & explore this place.
The constant smile on your face and excitement in your voice make it easy to catch the enthusiasm for a visit to Nuuk.
Thanks, Gary - it's hard not to smile when you are surrounded by such incredibly beautiful nature!
So true!!😄
I like the way you travel to destinations where other fancy youtubers don't go and present it dignified and with high quality pictures. Thumbs up - one more destination on my list.
thanks for the nice words - I try to do my best to understand destinations and try to present them with a little more in-depth information. By working with the local tourism boards I get the chance to connect e.g. with local musicians like Nanook which was a fantastic way to get to know the music scene of the country. I'd love to do more on that scale. Thanks for watching!
Mil gracias !!! Así se unen mundos 🌎 y continentes!!!!
I really appreciate the attention of my beautiful country you have given us so thank you
Oh! What town do you live in
Where Quqortoq Illiusiat Assist Nuuk Sisimut Paaimut oh or Disko Island
Thank you for introducing me to Greenland. What a fascinating place. My felicitations to the hardy people who inhabit this land. They are brave, resourceful and hardworking. Look forward to more such videos.
Brings back memories of my 2003 trip there.
Beautiful music to accompany the film.
Wunderschöne Aufnahmen. Tolles Video. Vielen Dank. Ich hatte viele Gänsehautmomente. Die Natur in Grönland ist überwältigend!
Danke für das Lob!
I really like that I know the cook that is in the video that is making the fish
Steve, I was on a difficult day and watched the video. I felt comfortable thanking you very much. You are still a good person. I speak to you from a desert land.
Feel better bro!
Great music great country!
Hahaha “mmmm, delicious!” With the water. Love that part 😂
The water here really is delicious af, especially out of the elves in the wild. And it’s usually very cold
14 minutes that was worth it every second. Greenland is beautiful.
Glad I found this! Wish I was 40 years younger! Beautiful stuff Steve!
Such a perfect presentation of Nuuk and surroundings - music so well accompagnied to the visual stuff. Well done Steve.
Thank you so much. I'm so glad I could meet up with Frederik & Christian after getting to know their music a while ago!
I've been to Iceland many times. It is definitely time for a trip to Greenland. It looks just amazing.
We have a sailing yacht well suited for the trip. That'll be one hell of a way to get there.
Spectacular views of the Greenland of today. The sharp contrast between the ultra modern 21st century capital city and the pristine landscape of remote Greenland is astonishing.
I was raised in Nuuk 😊
Why
Because he lives there day obvious seriously that is just obvious raised means born grew up in Nuuk😤😤😠
Thats sad.
Cool!
So neat
A bit chilly but spectacular place. Thank you for sharing with the rest of the world.

One of the best travel vlogs in the tube
This video felt so magical ❤️ Thank you for sharing! Greenland is absolutely beautiful
Beautiful music as a backdrop. The scenery and food are very tempting. Thanks for the lovely video!
I've been to Greenland but not to Nuuk. Your tour was very very well done...explanations, foods, fishing, camping, etc. Also, your smiles make the video. Please thank the musicians, and local guides etc for my trip to Nuuk. Be safe, be well and be happy
Glad you enjoyed it!

I fell in love with Greenland! ... that music is so fantastic. It reminds me of Hawaiian music, really!! ... the people seem so friendly and that church is wonderful.

Yes about 160
@@mrs.crabtree527 we have just opened 1 a closed prison, then in other parts we have detentions
Very beautiful Greenland travel views wonderful landscape and excellent architecture, thanks for sharing 👌👌👌
I loved the video. Greenland has been on my bucket list too long. I would love to witness the Northern Lights there but feel at 73 I'm getting too old for the climate. Thank you for sharing the sights to me.
Really great video! I'm a big fan of Nanook and the Elsner brothers so I love the music. Glad you were able to incorporate them and their music.
Just Loved it. Such a wonderful place... Thanks for showing us one of the best place in the world.. 👌👍👊👌

Nice video, the music took it to another level. The only missing and quite important info would be prices of meals or lodging.
I loved the polar bear in the music video.
Many stuff are pretty pricey n expensive. It’s a good idea to save up for food
Great video! I never would have thought that Greenland had very much, well stuff. But once again, you surprise me! Keep up the great work!

Absolutely gorgeous, and amazing video! I have a stone from Nuuk Greenland called Nuummite that I wear almost every day. It's my dream to go to Nuuk Greenland one day.
Thank you for this video 🙏😊

Espectacular video, deseo ir a allí! 😊 Belleza natural ! Hay tanto que ver :)
Mate, Nuuk looks awesome. Love the view from the top of that ski hill. Drone paradise. All the food looked amazing too. & weather on the glacier the first day... mate awesome!!
Thanks, buddy! Unfortunately the airport is to close to most sights in Nuuk to drone there ;)

Super! Unglaublich! Der Wahnsinn!
Das war ein gutes Video.
Wow!! Your video is so amazing!! Thank you for taking us on a journey through these beautiful landscapes!
Thanks for sharing us your tour at Greenland...
Wooowwww. What an amazing Journey. I hope visit Greenland (Groenlandia in Spanish) some Day. The music is amazing and your videos are very professional and beautifful. Greetings from México.
Muchas gracias - Groenlandia es un lugar increible!
Love this video!!! Greenland is so beautiful!!
AMAZING video man, well done. Greenland was already high on my list to visit, but this video bumped it up another notch. What time of year were you there? I'm guessing it's really expensive...is it about the same as Iceland or even more expensive?
it is a bit more expensive due to the few amount of airlines that travel there! :) - resident of nuuk
Iceland is a country of Highway Robbers! I spent 3 days there and took only 1 tour because of obscene prices . I could not afford to go to a restaurant because we were two and the minimum price was $50 for cheapest entree, no soup, no salad, no desert -ala carte. One restaurant meal would have been well over $150 for a couple. I had to pay $5Euro to use the restroom at the park! The locals blame tourists for making their prices so high. "We cannot go out for a beer said one" we pay these high prices too! The business owners tell you its because they are so far from Europe and USA(food is expensive). This is a lie because even "Icelandic Salmon" is high. I buy it in my NY supermarket cheaper than what they are charging in Iceland! ECO TOURISM is becoming the biggest scam in the world. Boycott these places until the prices become fair. There are many places that haven't become tourist traps yet : Glacier Park USA, The Ozarks, Western Canada, Budapest, Romania, etc....
I know Im randomly asking but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my password. I love any tricks you can give me!
@Orlando Ty Instablaster =)
@Nickolas Reece Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Your videos are amazing, Greenland is on my list now.
Regards from Saskatoon, Canada
I am visiting Greenland in August and looking more forward to it after seeing this video! Awesome! How can I meet locals to connect with once I’m there?
Finally i can see some green grass here. I can die peacefully .
Excelente video, felicidades
Fascinating! Thank you.
Cool! I didn't know that croissant (2:55) was a Greenlandic delicacy
Que hermoso esos osos impresionantes paisajes
Great Video. Appreciate your hard work. Much love from Bangladesh (Subcontinent)
My dream is to live in greenland. Purest place on planet earth

Hello from India!! This was the most enticing video I have EVER come across!! You made my day Steve! Your video is fabulous and so very informational.. pure bliss! Loved it so god damn much! ❤️♥️🌼🌼🌼🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Loved the greenlandisch music 😍
beautiful, greetings friend
I very happy, thank you. This is video Amazing!
Wow, thank you so much for bringing all of that beauty to my eyes! Magnificent desolation, just like the moon. Also I am in love with that band and I’d like to know what language it is they are speaking. And what language is spoken in Nuuk?
My name is Peggie from Louisiana USA.
The band sings in Greenlandic:-)
We mainly speak Greenlandic and Danish in Greenland, English isn’t a language we use in our everyday lives but it’s taught in schools so many people speak English in some levels
What a lovely video, many thanks. Warm greetings from the garden island island of Kauai
Thank you for a fantastic video. Beautiful place
Beautiful Simply Beautiful Vlogging ... Love from India
Superb video wonderful video man
I fully enjoyed this very informative and entertaining video!
Very beautiful place. I wish i'd go there too!
Zorica Pavičić i think its better at winter i go skiing a lot in winter :D
Very nice information about Greenland thanks,👍👍👍
Perfect video man 👍
I live in Bentonville, Arkansas, USA with a 2020 census population of 62,521, slightly larger than the population of Greenland. It is hard for me to imagine an independent country with a population less than my small city / large town - my guess is that they are going to have to depend on Denmark to handle defense, plus my understanding from reading about Greenland is that Denmark provides large subsidies to keep local government and the economy afloat. The Faroe Islands is a similar semi-autonomous Danish territory with a similar population, but I think it has a much stronger economy. In some ways it would make more sense in the long run for Greenland to join a confederation with Iceland and the Faroe Islands, or become part of next door Canada, but keeping the current system seems to work as long as Denmark is willing to continue sending money there. I have both Iceland and the Faroe Islands on my travel bucket list but may add Nuuk as well after watching this video.
That shot at 0:03 alone made my jaw drop.
Great stuff! Thank you for posting this!
Incredible video... Superb....
Amazing video I loved every minute of it!!
Thank for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Hello from Michigan, United States. Enjoyable video. It would be different without tall trees like we have here.
Beautiful video mate, big fan from the UK.
