What To Expect

Goldbelt Tram

The Alaska Native Tour shares our worldview with distinct aspects of our Culture at each of our Totems. These monuments tell the backstory of how Nature influences both our People and our Culture. Cultural aspects include Oral Tradition, Ecological Knowledge, Social Practices, Music & Performance Arts, Artwork and Language. Nature’s influence includes Geology, Geography, Phenology, Ecology, Economics, Sustainability, and Biodiversity. Alaska Native Culture is organized wisdom, while the Science of Nature is organized knowledge. This tour is about how the two work hand in hand, to give us a higher sense of responsibility to our People, our Land and ourselves The Goldbelt Tram is located just steps off the cruise ship dock. The tram ascends up Mount Roberts from the lower terminal to a height of about 1,800 feet. A restaurant, theater, beer garden and retail shop are located at the top of the tramway, as well as connections to trails leading both up and down the mountain.

The tour was by a native, Greg, who told us all about his family and heritage. Along the way we learned about the various totem poles, tribes and clans, and the history of Juneau. It was entertaining and enlightening. Very educational and enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Hi Scenic, We're sorry to hear about your experience with the Goldbelt Tram. It appears you have misplaced your review on the Alaska Native Tour. The Tram is an attraction on Mt. Roberts, and our Alaska Native Tour is a Cultural Tour on the waterfront of Juneau. They are uniquely different experiences. Unless you have been on the Alaska Naive Tour, we request that you please remove your review and place it appropriately with the Goldbelt Tram. Again, we are sorry to hear about your experience with the Goldbelt Tram. Thank you.

We went on this tour to get a better understanding of the First Nations history. We were impressed with the tour guide’s knowledge and manner of providing their stories and songs! We took videos and photos that will help us remember this tour!
