Old harbour, new industries, colourful houses, and vast nature surrounding it. Sisimiut is a melting pot of old and new, traditional and modern. As the second largest urban area in Greenland, this fast-developing town will reveal its real face to you on this sightseeing tour by bus.
Sitting on the plateau above the harbour, Sisimiut enjoys a great view over the sea as the size of the town is gradually expanding from hillside to nearby countryside.

The past 20 years have witnessed Sisimiut going through a rapid development, taking it to the mix of modern and old you will see on this tour. The tour includes visits to museums, the dog ‘town’ as well as the local meat and fish market, where the locals meet to trade and catch-up on recent news.
This tour is the perfect introduction to Sisimiut as well as Greenlandic culture and the people who live on the world’s biggest island.
