Taxi services are available in Upernavik. Given the small size of the town and the airport, it is highly recommended to pre-book a taxi to coordinate with your flight's arrival or departure. The airport is located very close to the town, so the journey is short. Your accommodation may also be able to assist in arranging a taxi.
There are no standard car rental agencies operating at Upernavik Airport or in the town. The road network is extremely limited as there are no roads connecting Upernavik to other settlements, making rental cars impractical and generally unavailable.
There is no public bus or train system in Upernavik. The town is small enough that most areas are accessible on foot. Transportation between the airport and the town is typically handled by pre-booked taxi or transfers arranged through local hotels.
