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!

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!

This was great and very educational with phenomenal views! Aleta was a great guide and taught us a lot about Juneau! Our kids are 10 and 14 and enjoyed it.

I wonderful experience, with a great guide. We saw a salmon stream, perfect picture spots around the glacier base, as well other areas. And we learned quite a bit about Alaska.

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!

This private tour met all our expectations. Our guide, David, was excellent and provided some good information about the area.

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.
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!

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.
Melissa_A, Jul 2026
Our tour guide, David, was excellent. He was so knowledgeable and helpful. He took us to so many great spots during our 3 hour tour. We saw tons of wildlife and great views.

This tour will make your stop in Juneau more meaningful by showing you the everyday community outside of the tourist trap at the dock.
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 go but the driver will provide good recommendations. Juneau is so beautiful there are lots of options. It’s great having your own driver.
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!

It was a perfect way to explore Juneau. Aleta has been an excellent tour guide. She has a vast knowledge of the area, it’s culture and the people.
Brandon_M, Jun 2026
Great trip to fall in love with Juneau! Our tour guide, Aleta, was great and knowledgeable. Knew all the perfect spots… that allowed us to see the sites with less people. She took great care of us.
Cheri_L, Jun 2026
Great tour, easy to work with and communicate for pick up. Our tour guide Ray was pleasant and knowledgeable. Great relaxing tour of Juneau.
Lori_G, Jun 2026
This was the perfect way to see Juneau. Aleta was a great tour guide. We learned a lot about Alaska. She made sure we saw the places that were important to us and we feel like we got to see so much more than if we had gone on a big group tour.
Catherine_L, Jun 2026
Aleta was wonderful. She took us all over Juneau. She was extremely knowledgeable, and had a great sense of humor. The place she took is to see the eagles was amazing hour many where there.
Janet_O, Jun 2026
Dave is very knowledgeable & has a great personality. He wants to share his love for nature & the Juneau sites with all.
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.
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!
Jeff_C, Jun 2026
Got to see all the major sites of Juneau, plus a black bear and a beautiful shot of the glacier. Our guide was wonderful, he knew all about Alaska and answered any questions and was able to point out animals left and right.

We had a group of eight ranging in age from 11 to 70, and everyone enjoyed the experience (with the possible exception of our 11-year-old, who decided the van was the perfect place for a nap).
Ray was friendly, accommodating, and made sure we saw some beautiful scenery and viewpoints that we likely would have missed on our own. The smaller, private format was a nice change from larger tour groups and allowed us to move at a comfortable pace.
One thing worth noting is that our group tends to be very curious, and we enjoy learning about the places we visit. We asked quite a few questions about the local environment, glaciers, wildlife, and geography. Ray was happy to answer what he could, but we were hoping for a deeper level of interpretation and local knowledge than was provided.
That said, if your goal is a comfortable, scenic tour of Juneau with a personable guide and some fantastic views, this is a great option. We had a very enjoyable morning and were glad we booked it.

This was the best tour!!
Not too long and not too short. Just the perfect amount of time to leave us time to tour the town and go to Jelly Fish Donuts for a sweet treat.
Family of 8 - from 8 years old to 67 years old.
Aleta was out tour guide and she was amazing! From meeting us at the top of the pier, to water for all, a container of snacks and a first aid kit and extra binoculars, Aleta was prepared for anything and everything!
The vehicle was clean and roomy and in excellent condition.
We viewed the beautiful Mendenhall Glacier from vantage points were we didn't have any crowds. Visited the shrine of Saint Therese which I loved ( and I met a priest from home!!). we saw bears and lots of eagles.
This was the perfect tour for our family.
Aleta also stopped at the best spot for glacier viewing which had a little beach . Everyone enjoyed walking around, the little kids ran around and everyone skipped rocks across the water.
Before we left, Aleta asked to take a family photo which made me so happy.
Thank you Aleta and Juneau Private Tours for helping our family make beautiful Alaska memories!!

Avoid the overpriced cruise ship cattle car tours. For less money, Aleta will provide a custom tour that fits your interests and level of activity. It’s like comparing basic economy to first class: there is no comparison! Highly recommend!
JoDell_H, Jun 2026
Aleta was great. The tour was not what I expected. Recommends asking guest their preference. A lot of history would have liked more scenic and sightseeing. Did not got to douglas. St Therese was the major highlight.
