What To Expect
Rated #1 Whale Watch in Juneau. Just as our name suggests, luxury is the difference. Our time together has been carefully designed to ensure you experience the very best of Alaska’s capital city and the Inside Passage.
Your adventure begins with a personal greeting at your ship/hotel. From our meeting point, your group boards our Mercedes Sprinter Land Yacht to take you on the 25-minute ride to Auke Bay. Here, you meet your captain and board the only whale watching yacht in Southeast Alaska.
Once we’re on the water, keep your eyes peeled for humpback whales and other world-class wildlife like orcas, bald eagles, harbor seals, Steller sea lions, and even the occasional brown or black bear. Our master captain and expert naturalist take you to the best locations and share their local knowledge on the area and its wildlife.
