Taxis are available at the airport, typically waiting for arriving flights. Kangerlussuaq Taxi is the primary operator, providing short rides to hotels and other destinations within the settlement. Given the small size of the town, taxi rides are brief.
Car rental is available, with Albatros Arctic Circle being the main provider. The fleet primarily consists of 4x4 vehicles, which are necessary for exploring the gravel roads, including the popular route to the Greenland Ice Cap (Point 660). It is highly recommended to book a vehicle well in advance due to limited availability.
There is no traditional public transit system. However, a local settlement bus operates a route connecting the airport terminal with key points in town, such as the supermarket and various accommodations like Polar Lodge and Old Camp. For sightseeing, organized bus tours are the most common way to visit attractions like the Ice Cap.
Handling here is quick and friendly, if a bit expensive. But then again where else are you going to go in the area!
