Blue skies and Whales

We truly enjoyed the whale watching experience and visit to Mendenhall Glacier. The weather was wonderful, views fantastic. We did the whale watch first and then visited Mendenhall. It was after hours when we arrived, so the visitor center was closed. It was easy to walk to Nugget Falls and we basically had the entire area to ourselves.

Whale of a tale was bucket list worthy.

Travel to boat was terrific. Captain and Crew were knowledgeable. We got to see Humpback whales and see Sea Lions. The boat was clean. We also enjoyed seeing many many eagles. We had fantastic weather and I’d highly recommend this company and book again through Viator

Glad I booked!

I was nervous to take this tour during our stop over in Juneau on a cruise. I was afraid maybe they wouldn't get us back on time. They did pick us up on time and get us back in plenty of time to make our boarding. We saw lots of whales and everyone was super friendly and taught us a lot of interesting information. We went in August. I'm not sure if that has an impact on how many whales we saw, but it was a very good experience.

Awesome experience and funny guide for our family

Our guide, Daniel, was awesome. We went late in the season on an October cruise and even though the animal activity was less, he made our experience engaging and exciting. We went to the beach and he showed all sorts of amazing sea life to our kids in the tide pools. He took us to the salmon ladder and hidden waterfalls and we tried several times to see bears but they just weren’t there and that’s okay. He was a great guide, funny, and we learned all about life in Alaska. Strongly recommend!

Unforgettable experience. Highly recommend this excursion.

1. Prepare for motion sickness if you have the propensity for it. 2. Dress in layers to go from sunny and warm to windy and cold to raw and rainy 3. If you bring a camera, especially w telephoto lens, bring a monopod for stability 4. Bring your binoculars

Totem Pole Park, Beach, Bears, Salmon Ladder

Great tour, guide tried several ways for us to view a bear, while we just missed mom and her cubs, the effort was appreciated. Tour included starfish at the beach stop, a snack, a little history of the area, and both the totem pole park and salmon ladder were incredible. Enjoyed learning a bit about each stop as we were enroute.

Worthwhile expedition to find whales at the end of the season

The guide on our whale-watching boat was excellent, very enthusiastic and entertaining. We were all told to manage our expectations, this being the end of the season before the whales migrate south, but our terrific captain kept searching, way to the north, then followed beside a mother and her calf way to the south again. Exciting, and there was some stamina needed as the boat slapped along the choppy sea. Fun snacks were provided. We arrived at the glacier after the visitor center was closed, so there was not much time to see much by 6:00, although our terrific bus driver returned to pick up those with energy to walk to the Falls at 7:00. Really fun excursion.

The tour company was a...

The tour company was a local company and provided a wonderful and fun whale watching experience. Chris, Genevieve, and Megan were all knowledgeable of the waters and the habitat of the whales. They treated us to Humpbacks, a baby Humpback that breached multiple times, and a pod of orcas! All in one afternoon! It was spectacular. Thank you ladies for the best trip on our trip!

Bears and raptors

Riley was an awesome guide. Being from the area he knew a lot of the history and it was an absolute pleasure to travel around with him and would definitely do it again. I would highly recommend this to tour to anyone at anytime to learn about the bears and the raptor center. Thanks for a great time.

Never too late…

…never too late to check this adventure off your bucket list! This was a magical experience with a great crew of organization to an awesome pilot and guide - Keith! We were the last flight of the day and it exceeded my very high expectation. I’m hooked on helicopters now and returned to walking an Alaskan glacier after 29 years with my love of 47 years. My heart is full!

Amazing Whale Watching Adventure

This tour was amazing, the highlight of our land tour after our Alaska cruise. We were a group of four in our 60s and 70s. Our captain, Denise Gray, a native of the area was extremely personable and knowledgeable. She knew where the whales were and provided us with an experience that we will remember forever. We even got to see a full breach right beside the boat. We were so glad we were on a vessel with a small group rather that some of the others we observed with close to a hundred people packed like sardines. This excursion was not cheap, but it was well worth the money in our opinions.
