Greenland is often overlooked when planning a family vacation. However, this stunning Arctic destination offers breathtaking natural beauty and unique experiences, making it a fantastic choice for an unforgettable family adventure. My 10-year-old daughter and I recently traveled to the world’s biggest island joining the 15 day Great Greenland Roundtrip tour with Greenland Travel. We loved every moment of our trip and hope to return to visit again soon. It was truly the trip of a lifetime and I’m eager to share the reasons why Greenland is an exceptional destination to visit with children and why it should be the choice for your next family getaway.
Untouched Natural Beauty
Greenland is a land of vast, untamed wilderness. For years, I had been intrigued by the idea of visiting this unique location, attracted not only to the pristine natural beauty but also to the fact that the country is 80% covered in ice and inhabited by fewer than 60,000 people. Greenland did not disappoint. Majestic glaciers, towering icebergs, rugged mountains, and wide open vistas create a surreal landscape that captivates both children and adults. We saw some of the most beautiful views we have ever seen exploring Greenland. Imagine viewing a 200 meter tall wall of ice as huge chunks break off and crash into the water as we did visiting Eqi Glacier.
