Mendenhall Glacier is a sight to see. Even though there is glacier melt, it is still beautiful. The visitor center has a map with some trails, and there is a great waterfall to walk too. It is a gorgeous area to hike or relax. ...
Regret doing an excursion here. The bus ride was way too long! Bus driver could not drive and talk so he drove very slow eating our time. Someone offered to drive for him. He offered to drop us in town but said we would have to walk the mile back to ship, something my 82 yr old mother could not do. We then discovered we could have taken the multiple shuttles back to boat but dark by then. I missed ...
Place was great but only had limited time. We were able to go up the tram but then had to get back for an excursion for a salmon bake that while good, was not worth the money. But excursion took away any time to spend exploring the quaint little town so that was disappointing. People were very nice there. ...
Great to take walk to the whale monument, book a tour. We did bike & brew. We biked to mexndelhall glacier, great tour and then had beer tasting. Lots of options. ...
Times: 3 pm to 9:30 pm. We did the Mendenhall Glacier and Whale Watching excursion offered by NCL. This was convenient as the tour bus picks you up right at the port so you don't have to ride into town. We did not get to experience the town. We did a 2 mile hike to see the waterfall and the glacier at the national park. If you are a fast walker you can get them both in as only 1 hour is allotted ...
We have been here before but wanted to go to the glacier since the last time was in 2008. Price fixing at the port said it would be $45 per person round trip just to get there so we opted for the local bus which was $4 each round trip and required we walk to the park which was 1.3 miles each way, not a big deal for us. Once there we hiked to Nugget Falls which was lovely. ...
Loved Mendenhall Glacier but had to forfeit Roberts Tram because wait was too long.
Juneau is a very pretty city.
Wish we had more time in this port. Not enough time to explore and enjoy
Did get to observe two eagles in trees ...
we took the tram up th e mountain and then hiked the rest of the way to the top of the mountain and then saw one of the best views we have ever seen in our life. amazing. we then hiked back down to the bottom of the mountain. it was a chore and totally unexpected how taxing it was but it is the story of our vacation and in hindsight i am so glad we did this.
