Endless Possibilities Await
A vast Arctic tundra with monstrous glaciers that carve icebergs into the sea and a coastline of ice and ancient rock formations, Greenland is wild and untamed ideal for Arctic Expeditions and perfectly situated beneath the Auroral Oval for the Northern Lights or the Midnight Sun depending on the season.
With its remote villages accessible by boat in the summer and only by dogsled in the winter, this is a destination for the adventurous. A Greenland Arctic Adventure is a once in a lifetime experience and could be a perfect destination for your next adventure.

Adventure & Culture
Greenland is an adventure in itself to travel to but it is so worth the effort and once you are there you have the most incredible scenery to get totally besotted by.

Unique Stays
The North of Greenland is somewhere we are really familiar with and whether you want to stay in a cosy local hotel, a gorgeous coastal cabin or a real life igloo there is – despite the remote location – quite a few options! Southern Greenland is another new area Off the Map Travel are offering where, like the more remote reaches of the Nordics, the properties might be a little more basic but boast some of the best views in the whole region – imagine waking up to see floating icebergs or miles and miles of nothing but lush green hills and white-capped mountains? That – to us – is more of a ‘luxury’ than just a fancy hotel.

Shared Experiences
From Our Customers
The best travel experience ever on every level you can think of during a Lapland expedition (food, activities, timings, accommodation, transport, service, equipment…). I highly recommend Off The Map Travel for their outstanding level of professionalism and detail oriented mindset!
Sophie & Guy
We originally hired Off the Map Travel in 2020 to set up a trip to see the Northern Lights. That didn’t happen, thanks to COVID. But, we persisted and in March of 2023, we took a 16-day trip that included both Iceland and Norway. IT WAS MAGICAL! Off the Map took care of everything! We were pampered at every stage of our trip. The people they hired and the activities they planned added up to a trip that will set the standard for any we’ll ever take in the future. Alex and his team were fabulous! We recommend them without restraint!
Jim & Kris
Amy was a great help with planning this trip. Our trip turned out amazing. I also was very grateful for Off the Map’s Front Desk service, which promptly handled an on the spot issue we had.
Karen
I used OTMT to organise a holiday to see the Northern Lights for my partner’s 50th birthday. They took the time to understand my priorities, the kinds of places we like to stay and the things we like to do. They recommended a fabulous itinerary in Norway centred around the Lyngen Experience Lodge. The holiday itself lived up to expectations and I have no hesitation in recommending OTMT. They listened carefully during the planning and delivered the perfect present for my partner.
Alex
I would thoroughly recommend this company. Their planning and advice was spot on. Alex responded to my calls and emails very promptly. I will definitely use them again for future trips.
Rosie
Off the Map Travel was great! Alex helped us plan the most amazing 10 day honeymoon to Iceland. He gave us great recommendations and was so patient with us during the planning process!
