Don't book anything through the ship. It's way overpriced and deceptive as to what you really get. You'll do better to book on your own. Loved my whale watching tour with Harvs & Marvs. ...
We did the Whale Watching and Mendenhall Glacier excursion. I highly recommend this excursion. The whale watching was spectacular (despite the fact that it rained) and Mendenhall Glacier time was adequate, views were great, and it stopped raining just in time for us to enjoy the Glacier. ...
Went to the Alaska History Museum. Very worth it. Walked the boardwalks along town and saw many salmon. It is worth the walk to the Breaching Whale fountain. ...
Beautiful port. We booked a whale watching excursion through Alaska Tails via Tripadvisor and it was the highlight of our trip! Orcas, humpbacks, seals, otters, eagles and the boat ride itself was amazing. Staff was incredible. They also took us briefly to the Mendenhall glacier which was a complete bonus and surprise. ...
We did a hike on our own for this port and it was amazing!! We hiked up to the trolley and then road that trolley back down the mountain!! Gorgeous views! Loved the shops! ...
The interesting capital of Alaska. well worth a wander around, to see the older buildings, especially churches. Would recommend Juneau Whale Tours (note the name- there are many similar) who have excellent smallish boats with good seating and standing space and knowledgeable crew. ...
Lots if ships and the first part of the port is very busy. Do the Glacier if you have time, we walked to the State Museum, good place to visit for a couple hours. interesting. ...
