Greenland's flag represents the sun rising over a glacier in the water. Appropriate for an early morning trip to Eqi Glacier.

A couple of hours into the journey, a giant waterfall cascades from the cliffs -- a fantastic photo opportunity!

In winter temperatures drop to -20°C, freezing the sea, making this journey only safely accessible from June to September.

As you get closer to the glacier, the boat's steel hull starts smashing through the slushy water like an icebreaker exploring the Northwest Passage.

The mesmerizing site of Eqi Glacier -- as menacing as it is beautiful.

The glacier reminds you of the Wall from "Game of Thrones," but luckily there are no dragons here.

Eqi Glacier is gigantic at over 30 stories tall. If you look closely at the picture you might just be able to see a boat.

The small, converted fishing vessels carry about 60 lucky passengers to the glacier every day.

It takes about three hours to reach Eqi from Ilulissat through Greenland's Ataa Strait.
