Adventure tours into the vast wilderness of Greenland.

Greenland is a place of incomparable natural beauty. With so many rare natural features, including towering icebergs, colossal glaciers, and expansive tundra as far as the eye can see, it’s impossible to resist the desire to explore.
That’s where we come in. We’re a company specializing in tours and charters to help you explore this wonderful arctic landscape up close. Photography tours, boat charters, overnight camping, and even the chance to join us in exploring someplace new.

We did tours with other two big companies in Ilulisat but Backcountry was far more superior: Ivan’s beautiful new boat is fast and super comfortable. If I only knew I... read more would definitely book all my adventures with Greenland Backcountry

Ivan has an intimate knowledge of Greenland's landscape. While i was with him, he took me on snowmobile tours to remote communities (Oqaatsuq) around Illulisaat. He also showed me some... read more astounding scenery of Greenland that only the locals or few other people know. An expert snowmobile rider and a sailor by profession, he paid special attention to the safety and comfort of his clients. I highly recommend Ivan at Greenland Backcountry as a guide to explore Greenland.
