Juneau Self Guided Audio Tour Glaciers Trails and Gold

Step off the cruise ship in Juneau with a self-guided audio tour built by a born-and-raised Alaskan, not a faceless tour company. The Ultimate Juneau Experience bundles eight offline GPS tours — from Mendenhall Glacier and Nugget Falls to the Perseverance Trail, Mount Roberts, and a downtown walking tour past the Red Dog Saloon and St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church. Here's how it works: you play the stories on your own phone. As you walk, GPS triggers each stop automatically and hands-free — phone in your pocket, glacier in your face. No live guide, no paper ticket, no rigid bus schedule. Because the Last Frontier runs on zero cell service, every tour works fully offline, no roaming required. This is the Juneau the crowded bus tours skip: trails, gold-rush ruins, the bears working Steep Creek, the 2,000-year-old forest emerging from under retreating ice. You set the pace, and your money stays in the local economy. Eight tours. Explore on your schedule, this trip and the next.

The Brown Bears at Pack Creek range in size from small cubs of the year to large males coming in over 1000lbs. May to Mid-June is mating season and summer foraging. We see bears interact in a variety of ways and courtship behavior is common, we also often see bears digging for clams, or eating sedge grass. This is also a great time to watch sows playing with cubs, and the best time for encounters with large males. Mid-July to the end of September are the various Salmon Runs, this is when the bears go to work. The bears focus is on fishing. The primary viewing location is about ten meters from the creek. This is when we often see the most bears in view at a given moment, and the only time to get a picture of a bear with a fish in its mouth. Viewing distances at Pack Creek can be as close as 30ft away or as far as a 1,000yds out, depending on the individual bear and which food source they are using.

Mendenhall Glacier and Whale watching...THE BEST EXCURSION!!!

The Mendenhall Glacier and whale watching excursion was absolutely the BEST excursion I've ever taken. I highly recommend this excursion. The Glacier was stunning and the Whale watching was AMAZING, we seen so many humpback whales. Do this, you won't regret it.

Alaska Tales and whale tales

Papa Bear was very informative, and we loved the music trivia game on the way back to the ship. We loved the enthusiasm of the naturalists and we learned a lot about the local whales and got many sightings of them feeding! The hike to the waterfall was so lovely, but we wished we had at least another 15 minutes to also get to the glacier viewing point. You only really have time to do one or the other in less than an hour (unless you race to the waterfall and back).

Don't hesitate - book this tour!

Absolutely fantastic experience! Staff was friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. We saw humpback whales bubble netting. So many whales! What a phenomenal experience. It was worth every penny. I highly recommend this tour. 😊😊😊

5-Glacier Seaplane Exploration

Candice_J, Aug 2026

Amazing and informative...

Amazing and informative flying experience. There is an audio recording to listen to explaining the various glaciers and points of interest as you are flying, during which our pilot, Jordan, added some of his own unique highlights and things to look out for. Even though it was a drizzly and misty day in the town when the cruise ship docked, the glaciers were crystal clear amd our views were amazing. Definitely worth the experience and I would recommend putting this on your itinerary!

3.5 Hour Crowd-Skipping Whale Tour in Juneau, Alaska

Jane_m, Aug 2026

Exceptional staff and experience!

This experience was amazing! Both our driver and naturalist were exceptional. We were blessed to see more whales than we could count! The whales were bubble net feeding and were breaching the water constantly. We will never forget this experience. The boat was intimate with 12 guests (max 21) and was perfect! we really did “skip the crowds” Highly recommended! Five stars!

Mendenhall Glacier Waterfall and Whale Watching Tour

Katie_G, Aug 2026

Great experience-we saw...

Great experience-we saw several whales thanks to captain Simon and learned about their behavior with Savannah, the naturalist on board. We were transported to and from our activities by our bus driver Jake who was hilarious and knowledgeable about the area. Mendenhall Glacier was beautiful and the hike to the waterfall fairly easy. Would 100% recommend!

Juneau Shore Excursion: Helicopter Tour and Guided Icefield Walk

Anna_R, Jul 2026

Incredible

We were a little on the fence about booking this because we had already scheduled some excursions for our stop in Juneau. It was going to be a long day for my kids, but at the last minute we decided to go for it. I am so glad we did! This was one of the most incredible experiences of our lives. Our helicopter ride was so smooth and our pilot Alex was amazing. He was so kind. He patiently answered all 1000 of my son’s questions (ha!) and took my kids and I exploring all around the glacier. There isn’t much out there that can compete with the view from the top. It is breathtaking! Coastal Helicopters is incredibly professional and well run. We would 1000% recommend this activity to anyone and everyone!

Excellent tour with friendly knowledgeable guides

We had a wonderful time on our whale watching tour. We saw many whales and sea lions. The tour guides answered all of our questions and were very friendly. This tour isn’t connected to the cruise ship and is so much more affordable than the excursions from the cruise. It was a top highlight from our trip to Alaska.

Best experience! Puppies, suspension bridge & more

So great! I had my 9 month old and my 8 year old and it was awesome for everyone. They gave some education, you got to hold puppies! The driver on the way up was an awesome tour guide. They served hot chocolate by the fire before we left. No water/power so use the bathroom before you go.

Mendenhall Glacier Express

Marvin_T, Jul 2026

Majestic Ice

While I would have liked to witness the glacier decades ago as it was spilling into the lake, it was still a majestic sight. Getting good views of the glacier itself and the falls was easy. Even on an excellent weather day like we had (clear skies and ~70°), the park was not that crowded and easy to move about without bumping into others. The visit provided an easy afternoon, beautiful nature view, and a good walk to stretch the legs. Recommended.
