Welcome to Arsuk! Car rental is a great way to explore this beautiful region of Greenland. In this guide, you will find all the important information you need regarding pickup at the airport, costs, and local driving conditions.
Car rental company offices are usually located inside or near the airport terminal. The pickup point is often in a central location to which the various companies provide a bus service. It is advisable to find out the exact location after booking so you know exactly where to go.
Several international and local car rental companies may be present at Arsuk Airport. The most common include larger companies that offer a wide range of options to suit different needs.
The ideal car choice depends on your planned trip. Here are some popular categories:

Most car rental companies require you to be at least 21 years old to rent a car, but certain categories may have a higher age limit. You will need a valid driver's license, identification (passport or ID card), and a credit card to deposit the security deposit. The amount of the deposit depends on the selected car and the insurance package. It is advisable to find out about payment methods in advance.
Compulsory liability insurance is usually included in the price, but it is worth considering additional insurance.

It is important to clarify to what extent the insurance covers damages and what deductible applies.
