See Greenland through local eyes

Greenland Goggles is a metaphor for seeing the world through a Greenlandic lens – a way of being fully present, aware of your surroundings, and taking it all in.
It’s how our ancestors have lived for centuries, and how our local guides still navigate Greenland’s breathtaking landscapes today.

Inspired by Inuit Snow Goggles

The world’s oldest sunglasses and their modern-day significance

The inspiration comes from the world’s oldest sunglasses, the snow goggles, used by Inuit to block harsh sunlight and stay focused on their target. Now, imagine a modern version – Greenland Goggles 2.0 – designed to block out distractions of the modern world, helping you slow down and be present. You learn to embrace change, let go of what you can’t control, and focus on what’s right in front of you.

When we say, “put your Greenland Goggles on” we’re inviting you to experience Greenland like a local and gain a fresh perspective that might stay with you long after your journey.

With the Greenland Goggles, you can activate three unique modes to see, feel, and experience our land just as the locals do, learn more about the Greenland Goggles in our video below:

“Where blogs, reviews and websites might help for most other destinations, planning Greenland relies heavily on actually going there and finding things out for yourself. Being a truly untamed wilderness for most travellers, it really helps to find the right people with local knowledge who have already been through it all for this. It’s very much about connecting the little dots on how to get places, get the right tour or the right means of transportation. There is so much to be offered just by talking to the right people, and invaluable knowledge that can’t be found elsewhere.”

“Having spent the last four summers travelling extensively throughout Greenland I have become acutely aware that the beauty of the country lies not just with the landscape and nature but equally with the Greenlandic people. Despite the eternal solidity of the rock and ice there is a fluidity to Greenland that can defy the best laid plans. Being able to adapt to and absorb these changes has made for the most pleasantly memorable experiences of my life. Only by opening yourself to the experience and assistance that local knowledge can bring can you truly appreciate the genuine awesomeness of Greenland.”

“My work as a storyteller is rooted in cultural connection. What makes us similar, what makes us different, and how we essentially want the same thing in life to be seen for who we are, fully heard, and acknowledged. In my visits to Greenland, nothing compares to those serendipitous moments spending time with locals, being invited into their homes for kaffemik, a traditional dinner or to their favorite hangouts spontaneously, listening to their personal stories no one else has access to publicly, looking into each other’s eyes, and fully seeing our humanity despite our cultural differences. This is the reverent beauty that can only be experienced by organically interacting with locals on the ground in Greenland and seeing where the spirit of this majestic land wants to lead you.”
