Tunu Activities

SPRING 2005
Tunu is currently offering some very exciting itineraries for Spring 2005. Join us for an incredible cultural experience as we explore the majestic Arctic East Coast of Greenland by dogsled and learn about the remarkable Inuit culture. This is a beautiful time of year to visit, as the the Arctic wakes from the long winter darkness. Most of our trips involve three-day dogsled expeditions as part of a 10 day tour, but we can organise longer exploratory trips with the dogs. Please click here for details of our Spring tours for 2005.

SUMMER 2005
A Summer trip to on the Arctic East Coast of Greenland is a strikingly different experience to the Spring. Under the warm summer sun we explore this remote area during trekking tours, boat trips and natural history tours. The Arctic comes to life at this time of year and there will be the opportunity to see all sorts of wildlife including foxes, hares, seals, myriad birds and perhaps even whales and Polar Bears. It is also an ideal time to discover this areas long and fascinating history. Click here for details of our Summer trips.

OTHER SERVICES
Tunu also offers logistical support to private groups wishing to launch their own expeditions into Greenland, and can arrange bespoke trips for groups or those who would like something different. Scientific, natural history and photography trips can also be organised. We can make arrangements for mountaineering parties who wish to visit this world-class climbing arena, and Tunu's experienced leaders are available for guiding. The East Greenland Coast is also a superb destination for sea-kayakers - after all, this is where the kayak was invented! Please contact us for details of our services.

Tunu is proud to announce that in Spring 2004 we ran a very successful training package in Greenland for the Scot 100 South Pole Expedition - an attempt by Scots Craig Mathieson and Fiona Taylor to reach the Pole on foot with the worthy aim of raising funds for Childline, the Scottish Huntingdons Association, Cancer Research UK and the Multiple Sclerosis Society. They set off for the Pole in November 2004. Sadly, Fiona had to retire from the expedition but Craig made it all the way, reaching the Pole on 29th December 2004 after 56 days on the ice. They endured some of the most extreme conditions on record and were continually challenged by difficult surface conditions. A mammoth achievement and a first for Scotland- congratulations Craig!
