Nuuk, Greenland

Nuuk

Introduction

Nuuk is the capital of Greenland, an autonomous country in the Kingdom of Denmark.

Where You're Docked

Large ships will need to tender though smaller ships can dock in port. The tender pier has been set up previously near the National Museum and Tourist Information Office/Big mailbox. Shuttles may be provided if you are docked in port.

Money and Tipping

Denmark's currency is the Danish Krone (DKK). Credit cards are accepted at a lot of places but most self-serve terminals require chip and pin cards. Ask before trying to use a magnetic swipe card. Euros and US dollars are readily accepted in tourist friendly places.

Local Transportation

Nuuk is fairly small and walkable.
