Step into the heart of Greenlandic life with a guided walking tour through Nuuk’s historic Colonial Harbour, followed by an intimate Kaffemik hosted in a local home.
Begin your journey in the old harbor area, where colorful wooden houses and centuries-old landmarks tell stories of Nuuk’s colonial and Inuit heritage. Visit iconic sites such as Hans Egede’s House, the Greenland National Museum, and traditional turf houses while your local guide shares fascinating insights into the city’s past and everyday culture.
After the walk, you’ll be welcomed into a Greenlandic home for a traditional Kaffemik, a cherished social gathering where friends and family come together to share coffee, cakes, and conversation. Savor homemade treats and warm drinks as your host shares personal stories about life in the Arctic, community traditions, and the meaning of togetherness in Greenland.
This cozy and heartfelt experience offers an authentic connection with local people, combining culture, history, and hospitality in a way that few visitors get to experience.
