Greenland has been cited as a destination to watch by numerous media outlets thanks to the new airport that opened in Nuuk late last year.
Its landscapes have also been showcased extensively in news reports in recent weeks as a result of President Donald Trump’s interest in the Danish territory.
In January 2025, Regent saw a 250% increase in bookings to Greenland compared to a year ago.
There was a 70% increase in enquiries.
In just the first month of the year, Regent has already achieved 26% of last year’s total bookings for Greenland.
Andrea Godfrey, Head of Regent, said: “Perhaps it’s the buzz surrounding Nuuk’s new airport opening, or maybe the curiosity sparked by Trump’s much publicised designs on it.:
“Whatever the reason, Greenland is very much on the radar as a travel destination for 2025.”
“We’re also seeing a trend toward travellers booking longer holidays, moving away from five-day short breaks in Ilulissat, which were hitherto most popular.”
Catering to increased demand, Regent has launched two new, longer itineraries in recent months:
The 15-day Great Greenland Adventure is a comprehensive summer exploration that combines adventure with culture. This small group tour takes in Greenland’s heritage, art and architecture alongside the great outdoors, with mountain hikes, whale-watching, cruising and relaxing in geothermal pools. It is priced from £8,185 per person sharing, including return flights, accommodation, all transportation including internal flights, most meals and a host of experiences as.
The 8-day Greenland Winter Wonders: Nuuk to Ilulissat individual trip is perfect for witnessing the northern lights, icebergs, and local Inuit culture. Twinning capital Nuuk with Ilulissat (known as Town of the Icebergs), it celebrates Greenland’s winter, with a northern lights cruise, a dog-sledding adventure and the opportunity to overnight in an igloo. It costs from £3,095 per person.
