I signed up for the Greenland trip, paying little attention to anything other than the dates and packing list. Turns out, that’s the perfect way to approach Greenland - with the right gear preparation, an open mind and no specific expectations. Then, this mysterious country slowly unfolds in front of you with surprises (good and less good) around every corner. Tara and our experienced Icelandic guides planned a varied itinerary, aiming to expose us to the sights, sounds and all forms of ice East Greenland has to offer. But, curve balls abounded (mostly weather-related) — each one handled deftly and with humor, while keeping our group engaged and busy. This adventure requires flexibility, willingness to sometimes make do without creature comforts and a bit more physical stamina than some of Tara’s other trips. But boy is it worth it! We laughed, we cried, we oohed and aahed, and like most Green Edventures trips, we did it all with a group of badass women. Thank you for making this incredibly special experience happen!

This trip was absolutely amazing for anyone who is a fan of nature. You get to spend tons of time either on or in the ocean, with many snorkels, scuba dives, and whale watching trips. You also spend several nights camping on a beautiful beach sleeping under a bed of stars. The exploration of La Plaz is also fantastic, with plenty of time to enjoy the city and it's history. I would recommend this trip to anyone who loves the outdoors, and I will definitely try and go back at some point.

This was a great trip, especially for first-timers to Alaska. We enjoyed many of the highlights Alaska has to offer. Our local guide worked tirelessly to provide a good experience for all. Meals were healthy, tasty and clean. Accommodations were comfortable. The dynamics were positive and cooperative. All participants were of appropriate fitness levels for the activities. Our group leader set and maintained a positive and fun-loving atmosphere. Thank you, Green Edventures!
