The attractive town of Tasiilaq on the island of Ammassalik, has a population of around 1600. It is ringed by huge jagged peaks, some of the highest mountains in the country in fact and, with its typical and very colourful houses dotted all over the hillside, it is the centre for the region. The Tasiilaq Museum is well worth a visit if you’d like to know more about the rich heritage of this fascinating region.
The delightful Hotel Ammassalik enjoys views over the ice-filled fjord and high mountains. The hotel has its own lounge and bar. In Reykjavik accommodation is in tourist class hotels in rooms with shower/sc or guesthouses.
A choice of optional excursions is available subject to ice and weather conditions and should be booked locally. This holiday can be easily extended to allow more days in Greenland/Iceland - phone our office for more details. |
