I was surprised (and wary) of just how close our boat's pilot drove next to icebergs; my fear that the "unseen" parts of them below water level might crunch our boat and cause it to capsize. I did NOT zoom in on these photos.

Breathtaking, looks like another world.

Our Tour Guide/boat owner told us that the boat we were in was very shallow-hull so chance of it hitting an iceberg were slim. Yet he took it full-throttle most of the time, and he'd be keeping up conversation(s) with any of us, looking over his shoulder when talking, while I was watching those TOO-CLOSE icebergs we were passing!!

That was my fear, too, when you said you were doing this tour!
