    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!
    All Things to do in Nuuk & Greenland as shown in this episode:
    - Old Colonial Harbour of Nuuk
    - Myggedalen
    - Lille Malene Hike
    - Katuaq
    - Sarfalik Restaurant at Hotel Hans Egede

    - Qooqqut
    - Qooqqut Nuan Restaurant
    - Qooqqut Catch & Eat
    - Kangerlussuaq
    - Camp Ice Cap on the Greenland Ice Cap

    - About my Cooperation with Visit Greenland-

    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.

    • @BackPackerSteve
      @BackPackerSteve  5 років тому +5

      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!
