Overview

Enjoy the intimacy of just your family and friends — up to 5 — on a private sightseeing tour of gorgeous Juneau. See the Mendenhall Glacier from a scenic lookout; as well as mountain vistas, eagles, salmon, seals, and more.

Experience riding in a luxury hybrid SUV, with mid-row captain seats and an expansive moonroof for spotting eagles soaring above. Take comfort in a heated seat (if temps are too cool for your liking!), and fully charge your phone while relaxing in style.

Your guide is a local family man, who has lived in Juneau since 2016. Listen and learn about the history of the town, while your eyes feast on the scenery.

* The DIPAC Salmon Hatchery is open May 4-Sept 30. A visit is optional. If we skip it, we will spend the time at other sites.

* More people in your group means more savings per person

* If your party has 6, I may be able to accommodate them, but you need to contact me before booking.

* Guaranteed to return you to your ship before its departure

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Alaska over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
