As of this update (Mar 2025), a visa is not required if you are traveling from the United States & Canada, most countries in Europe, or Australia & New Zealand. Travelers from South Africa do need to have a visa in advance. Check with your country's state department for up-to-date information or if you have questions about travel requirements.
Tipping is not customary in Greenland, but you should expect to see a service charge included on the bill. If you do experience great service, tips are appreciated, but not expected.
Surprisingly, Greenland has very dependable high-speed internet and WiFi hotspots. If you are staying at a lodge on Greenland, you will likely have access from your room; if you are traveling on a cruise, you can always ask us if your ship is equipped with internet access.
If you have a phone with a SIM chip, then the easiest and cheapest way to get mobile phone service is by purchasing a local chip from TeleGreenland. The alternative would be to activate global roaming, in which case you will still have fair 3G coverage and signal in the villages and towns, but your rates will probably be very high since Greenland is so isolated from the rest of civilization.
Greenland runs on 220-240V power and has Type K Danish outlets and occasionally Type C Europlug outlets. Having an adapter for both of these is crucial, but you will also need a step-down converter if you have any appliances that can only accept a 110V power source (many small North American devices).
Cruise ships and the main cities, towns, and villages you will visit have modern, flushing toilets.
Seldom will you find cleaner water than in Greenland. Whether it's tap water or glacier water, it's all safe to drink. But it's best to stick to the tap water!
In the bigger towns and settlements, it's not hard to find an ATM or a business that accepts credit cards, however they sometimes close as early as 6pm and there are many businesses that do not accept credit cards, especially in the more remote areas. You should always have some spare cash on hand just in case.
We always encourage travelers to purchase insurance just in case. Check out the Once You're Booked page for more info.
