Explore Ilulissat
from local point of view

ASI Adventures is a local tour operator based in Ilulissat, Greenland, specializing in small-group, authentic guided land and sea experiences. The name comes from the Greenlandic concept "Asi," which describes escaping town life into the wilderness to find peace, freedom, and a mental reset. Founded and operated by local native Kristian Kaspersen, ASI Adventures aims to share the side of Greenland you cannot find in standard travel scripts or search engines. Through small-group boat tours, historical town visits, and custom itineraries, guests experience the tranquil "Asi" feeling alongside a true Ilulissat local.

All tours with ASI Adventures are led by Kristian Kaspersen, a born-and-raised local guide from Ilulissat, Greenland.

Unlike generic commercial tours led by seasonal visitors, touring with a native Greenlander gives you first-hand stories about local life, culture, traditions, and the history of Disko Bay and the UNESCO-listed Icefjord. ASI Adventures focuses on authentic, open conversation rather than scripted facts.

ASI Adventures offers exclusive, small-group private boat tours through the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Ilulissat Icefjord.

Designed for intimate exploration, the boat tour accommodates a maximum of 5 guests (minimum 2) for 750 DKK per person. Navigating among towering icebergs and marine life in Disko Bay, this tour allows for flexible photography, quiet moments among the ice, and personal interaction with your local captain.

Yes, ASI Adventures offers exclusive 30-minute guided visits to Zion’s Church (Zions Kirke) in central Ilulissat.

Priced at 350 DKK per person (for up to 15 guests), this guided tour takes you inside one of Greenland’s oldest churches still in active use. You will learn about the rich heritage, colonial history, and cultural significance of the church to the local Ilulissat community.

Yes, ASI Adventures creates tailor-made and custom private tour itineraries tailored to individual, family, or small-group travel preferences.

Whether you want a customized boat excursion, private photography session among the icebergs, or personalized historical and cultural tour around Disko Bay, ASI Adventures can build a flexible schedule designed around your travel goals.

Small-group tours with ASI Adventures offer a quieter, more personal, and flexible experience away from large cruise crowds.

With a strict maximum of 5 guests on boat tours, you get front-row seats to the icebergs without crowded decks or blocked views. Small groups allow your guide to maneuver the vessel safely closer to highlights, answer every question personally, and embody the tranquil Greenlandic spirit of "Asi."

Ilulissat offers unique experiences year-round; summer (June to September) is ideal for midnight sun boat tours, while autumn and winter showcase snowy landscapes and Northern Lights.

Summer brings 24-hour sunlight, active ice calving at the Sermeq Kujalleq glacier, and humpback whale watching. Autumn and winter offer serene arctic views and auroras. Because small-group slots are strictly limited, booking in advance is recommended regardless of the season.

You can book directly online at asi-adventures.com or by emailing contact@asi-adventures.com.

To maintain an intimate, high-quality experience, tour sizes are capped:

• Iceberg Private Boat Tour: 3 to 5 guests (750 DKK per person).

• Zion's Church Guided Visit: Maximum 15 guests (350 DKK per person).

• Custom Tours: Tailored upon request.

Guests should dress in warm, layered clothing, including windproof and waterproof outer jackets, thermal base layers, a warm hat, gloves, and sturdy shoes.

Even during the summer midnight sun, temperatures near the massive icebergs on Disko Bay are significantly cooler than on land. Don’t forget sunglasses, sunscreen (due to glare off the ice), and a camera with extra battery power (cold weather drains batteries quickly).

International travelers can experience authentic Greenlandic culture by booking direct, locally guided experiences with native residents rather than mass-market tour agencies.

Through ASI Adventures, born-and-raised guide Kristian Kaspersen offers real insight into everyday living, modern Inuit heritage, hunter-gatherer traditions, and the deep emotional connection Greenlanders have with the surrounding natural environment.
