I'm sorry to hear about your wife's health issues and at the same time I'm glad she is still with you.

@@vdmfam Thank you, hopefully someday we will cruse again. Again thanks for the videos.

That's fantastic! I suspect you'll have a great time like we had!

Thank you! Oh, no kidding!!! We'll be on that Antarctica cruise was well!

Thank you for your kind words.

You're welcome.

We had a great time!!! One of the main issues with Greenland is getting to Greenland. The weather (fog) can hinder the ships ability to safely navigate the waters. Iceland is usually okay but wind can play an issue on some ports there. We've been to Iceland 4 times and haven't had issues with ports. As for the ship... We love it! We took it to Antarctica as well.

thank you!

I am on this same cruise... Iceland, Greenland, Canada, St Pierre, ending nyc. Thanks so much for this great video!

Thank you!

That sounds like a great trip!

August 8th! :)

If you come to Nuuk, I do recommend a bus driven city tour if one is offered by your cruise company. The guides are all English speaking and well versed in Nuuk and it’s history, the history of Greenland and other things you may want to know about our fascinating city and country.

We went the end of July. Not much wildlife. No the ship doesn't carry local currency. I suspect you'll have a great time like we did!

@@vdmfam Thank you so much!!!

We loved it!!!

Our cruise was late July to beginning of Aug. There are 2 'weather' items that occurred on our trip... heavy fog and floating ice. Of course the further into summer the less ice but is the fog worse?? I don't know. We love NCL and just got home from another NCL cruise to Panama. I don't know what your cruise experience or expectation are but we find the ships offer much without the 'party' atmosphere. The only 'issues' we've experience is itinerary changes due to weather (or Covid restriction changes last year). Nothing ship related.

Yes, this country is completely different. The capital of Nuuk might have rental cars but I doubt it.. take an excursion. The other stops are actually villages and can be walked. Tourism is very new for the country and the population is quite small. The villages are not connected by roads. Your ship will have more people on it than the village have living there. For us, fog was a problem causing us to miss a village because the ship had to reduce its speed for hours. The icebergs could be an issue too if there are a lot of them. Go, and enjoy the adventure!

Yes, there are companies here in Nuuk that rent out cars. However, to legally drive in Nuuk, you need an international drivers license. A US license is not recognized. The easiest thing though is just to go on the city tour if your ship offers one. If they don’t, local tourist companies will be at the dock to offer tours. The main harbour is 1,7 kilometers from the center of town and 2,5 kilometers from the Old Colonial harbour with the National Museum.

Fantastic! I'm glad you have been enjoying the video. Our VIP access is due to our status with NCL. Godafoss is a must see. It's a walk at your own pace while at the waterfall, most of the rest of the excursion is a scenic bus ride. There are places to sit and rest. The Golden Circle out of Reykjavik is another must see. I use iMovie (Apple) to compile my videos.

@@vdmfam Thank you so much for your quick reply and answers to my questions. I appreciate it very much! I’m so happy to hear that there are places to rest on the different sites. And I’ll look into using iMovie to create my KZfaq videos. Your videos are fantastic with lots of great music and they’re very informative and enjoyable! Thank you once again.

Be on that same cruise starting July 3 to 13.

@@bilbowilbo9849 That’s awesome! Perhaps we will meet on the ship! 😁

No, I'm sorry Beau I do not!

@vdmfam thanks so much. Fortunately they were able to send us the information on the doors but it took a while.

@@beauduty4979 good to hear!!!

Late July to beginning of Aug.

With an inside stateroom you would be missing a lot. Get at least an ocean view. The rooms can be heated if you need. We always book balconies and throw on a jacket to watch iceberg, whales etc. from our balcony. With the exception of Nuuk there are few excursions available at each village. Walking tours are educational. Exploring on my own is where i got most if the video clips. I did both. Don’t expect bus tours (except Nuuk). The villages don’t have busses. The ship population is greater than the village.

There will be some boat excursions for iceberg exploring.

We are booked on this cruise next summer. Did Alaska this Spring. We usually book insides for cost and better sleep. For Alaska we had a balcony. Probably worth it, but we usually went out on the decks when the sights were best. Often the other side of the ship has a better view, so your balcony doesn’t help. It was often not that pleasant on the balcony due wind and cold. Ocean view cabins are not worth the money imho. If you prefer to be in your cabin a lot(we don’t) then maybe a balcony. We are booked in an inside for this cruise. We have done 20 plus cruises, mostly with inside cabins. When we have had balconies they were rarely worth it. To be fair we live in Florida and are boaters, so we are not seeking sunshine and water views when we cruise. Usually head to the upper decks when sights are worth it.

We are also booked an inside cabin so we can go to whichever side of ship to see the sights

You never know!!

@@vdmfam Would you recommend this cruise?

@@annamisley8678 Yes I would!! Greenland weather can be problematic but it's worth it.

That's exciting to hear! I suspect that you will have a great time! I always purchase unlimited wifi (upgrade from the free wifi given) because I'm on line a lot. The speed is in line with other ships wifi.. not fast but adequate. If you decide to not upgrade the included wifi be sure to log out EACH time you have logged on... as the clock will continue running even if your turn your device off.

Thank you so much!! I’ll go ahead and upgrade so that I won’t have to worry about the clock running and can enjoy the wifi on board. I’m counting the days to the day I board! Thanks so much once again.

Did you use NCL’s ground transportation to get to the airport at the end of the cruise? I’m wondering if I should do that. I saw on another video that the lines for taxis were extremely long. My flight does not leave till the next day. Thanks again for posting your videos. You have inspired me to see the world!!

@@ChooCruisesSOLO Yes we do (did) use NCL transportation. Did NCL book the hotel? if yes they should provide transportation. If you booked on your own hotel, you'll need a taxi if the hotel doesn't provide transportation from the airport.

@@vdmfam Thank you very much once again. I so appreciate your promp replies. I had to Get my own pre and post cruise hotels because I made my cruise reservations less than 60 days to cruise date. But I’m thinking of using their ground transportation to get from cruise port to airport.
