A wonderful experience! Aleta showed us things we would have never found. We saw water falls all over, river otters , eagles, and yes, even a bear. The glaciers were amazing! It was a great day and we will always remember it! Thank you Aleta!

This was a perfect way to spend the morning. Our guide, David, picked us up at the airport and we got to travel a good portion of the Juneau area. He took us to some very nice secluded spots where we watched Eagles and ducks. David was pleasant and professional and modified our trip for a limited mobility person.

    Terrific Sightseeing Excursion

    Josh_R, Aug 2026
    Great way to see Juneau. Our tour guide David was phenomenal at pointing out wildlife from eagles to mountain goats. We also saw black bears, humpback whales, and ravens. He knew where to go to get great photos of the scenery and glaciers.

    Aleta was exceptional

    Ichrak_M, Aug 2026
    From the very beginning, everything was perfectly organized. The van was spotless, comfortable, and extremely well equipped with everything we could possibly need, including a great selection of snacks, such a thoughtful touch! Aleta was attentive, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. Her explanations were fascinating and went far beyond the glaciers. We learned so much about Alaska’s landscapes, wildlife, flora, and nature in general. She made every part of the experience truly engaging. The weather was extremely foggy and rainy, but Aleta went above and beyond to make sure we could still see a glacier. She found the perfect spot, and we ended up being completely alone there. It was an unforgettable moment for our whole family! We saw and experienced all the essentials, without ever feeling rushed. I highly recommend this tour and, above all, Aleta, who deserves every one of these 5 stars!

    The Way to See Juneau

    Personalized service for just your group, with a guide who loves the area and has several places to show guests for beautiful views. Our driver was Ray and we would highly recommend him to anyone considering this tour. Ray even made a special stop at our request. The meeting place is conveniently located near the ships.

    Great tour with David!

    Brenda_G, Aug 2026
    The trip with David made our day! We learned and saw a lot! David was fun, pleasant, accommodating, and professional. What more could you ask for? I highly recommend his tour!

    Great way to learn about Juneau!

    Sheila_L, Aug 2026
    Booked this private tour so my large family group can easily get around town and at our own pace. I booked it 3 days before we ported! The company reached out several times to confirm booking and provide instructions. Communication overall was always good! Aleta was our tour guide and she was amazing! She was so knowledgeable about the history of Juneau, the glaciers and was able to talk about any topic we asked her about!! She was also very attentive to our family’s needs, we had a few elderly that were a bit slower walkers, so let us take our time, helped us take pictures! The best thing was that even though the glacier was closed the day we went, she went out of her way to find us scenic spots to view the Mendenhall glacier from a far! Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone that was a custom tour of Juneau and to be able to see the town at your own pace!

    Jennifer_B, Aug 2026

    Perfect Tour

    Colleen_C, Jul 2026
    David was a phenomenal tour guide! He took us all over and answered a myriad of questions about the area we needed to know for a novel we’re working on. He was so patient with our grandson too and showed us things specific to our needs. I highly recommend this tour company and guide!

    Perfect Day in Juneau

    Desert_H, Jul 2026
    David was an incredible driver and tour guide. He knew all the right places to visit and even made a couple stops for us to pick up a few things that we needed. He gave us an excellent tour of the highlights of Juneau.

    Juneau at its best!

    sharhonda_p, Jul 2026
    The private tour was amazing! We were able to have the flexibility to spend a little more time at stops we really enjoyed and less time at stops we really didn’t feel we needed alot of time at. We had great photo options and learned alot along the way. Our driver Ryan was awesome!

    Juneau Alaska - Ask for Raymond

    Cynthia_C, Jul 2026
    Raymond is a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide, provided a comfortable vehicle with large windows for viewing the scenery (especially when it's drizzly/raining), each stop we made had breathtaking scenery. The visit to the National Shrine of St. Therese was beautiful.

    This tour will make your stop in Juneau more meaningful by showing you the everyday community outside of the tourist trap at the dock.

    Best tour of Juneau!

    Ashley_B, Jul 2026
    One of our favorite experiences in Alaska! Juneau as a port was very disappointing, just one diamond international store after another. It was so refreshing to have David pick us up and drive us out of the tourist madhouse to go see what makes Juneau and Alaska a gorgeous place. He drove us to 2 different locations to get views of Mendenhall glacier. Gave us information about the area. The trip out to the Temple of St. Teresa was amazing. He gave us time to walk around and take it all in. He pointed out wildlife and plant life and explained how Alaskans use the environment around them. He drove us to his favorite places. It was such an enjoyable afternoon. We loved it all!

    Go wherever you want to...

    Matthew_D, Jul 2026
    Go wherever you want to go but the driver will provide good recommendations. Juneau is so beautiful there are lots of options. It’s great having your own driver.

    Great views and great tour

    Jeanne_Y, Jun 2026
    Private tours are thebest! Aleta informed us where she would be and a picture so we would recognize her helpful. Tour was amazing and pictures we took so great. Would do private tours again and again to avoid walking too much and avoiding large bus loads. Thank you again!

    Perfect excursion

    Iris_J, Jun 2026

    Great Small-Group Excursion with Excellent Guide

    Brian_P, Jun 2026
    The pre-trip communication was excellent and made everything easy to understand ahead of time. The morning of the excursion was simple and well organized, which made for an stress-free start. Aleta did an incredible job sharing the history of the town and surrounding area. Being away from the large bus tours made the experience much more relaxing, personal, and informative. We really enjoyed the pace and appreciated the local knowledge that made the excursion feel special. And got to see and enjoy bears.

    The Best Juneau, Alaska Tour!

    Randy_T, Jun 2026
    Mrs. Aleta was our tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and did an AMAZING job. We learned about the Salmon, Glaciers, Alaskan heritage, and the list goes on. Aleta crammed so much into our tour! We highly recommend this tour. 5 Stars!
