Best of Juneau
A triple treat complete with whales, glaciers and an Alaskan buffet!
Come face to face with a glacier, marvel at huge humpback whales and top this excitement off with a scrumptious meal featuring wild Alaskan salmon grilled over an alder wood fire. You’ll call this combination amazing. We call it the Best of Juneau®.
The Experience
Enjoy a narrated transfer to the spectacular icewall of the Mendenhall Glacier and its adjacent Visitors Center, where a ranger can satisfy your curiosity about the natural wonders. Roam the grounds, snap photos, take in the interactive exhibits and have the chance to watch bears feast on salmon.
From Mendenhall Glacier, board a transfer to Auke Bay. Upon arrival, your captain and onboard naturalist will welcome you aboard a state-of-the-art, 48-passenger jet boat. Custom-built for whale watching in Juneau, the boat features large windows and an outdoor viewing deck for the best possible experience.
Finally, complete your day in Juneau with the unique scenery and flavors of Gold Creek Salmon Bake. From delicious rainforest dining under heated domes to the spectacular Salmon Creek waterfall, there’s something for everyone at this one of a kind Juneau landmark.
