Juneau Wildlife Whale Watching & Mendenhall Glacier

Overview
This wildlife viewing excursion takes you on a journey to see two of the major highlights in Southeast Alaska. You will be guided to the Mendenhall Glacier for a 45 minute self-exploration followed by our wildlife whale watching tour. Once you have had a chance to explore the glacier park on your own, we will take you to the whale watching harbor where you will come aboard one of our state-of-the-art vessels to search for majestic Humpback Whales and other water wildlife we may find along the way. Our expert captains and naturalists are so familiar with these amazing creatures that we can actually guarantee you will see whales in their natural habitat from a safe distance. Our boats are equipped with restrooms and heated cabins to make this journey extra comfortable. Our fleet of fast jet boats all have plenty of outdoor deck space so you can choose to watch the wildlife in the open air or from the comfort of the cabin. This is an Alaskan adventure you won't want to miss!

Went on this amazing whale watching tour ( and also Glacier). Justin, Ben and Sophie were our awesome guides. They were professional, knowledgeable and lots of FUN!!! Saw SO many whales it was the most incredible experience of a lifetime! We booked it it ourselves on TripAdvisor and had the exact same trip as those who booked it in the cruise line.

Great experience. Our ship was late getting to port and Alaska Tales moved the tour time to accommodate us. The trip to the glacier was wonderful with the driver giving us lots of good info on the area. The whale watching tour was so fun and informative. The crew was amazing and we were able to see some beautiful whales with some breaching. As a traveler and a tour advisor, I would highly recommend this tour.

We enjoyed our tour of the Mendenhall glacier and whale watching on the small boat. The driver dropped us at Mendenhall glacier and then we were on our own for an hour. It was not guided. He was a bit abrupt. However the glacier itself was amazing. Then we went for whale watching on the small boat. The youn girl was very friendly and gave lots of information. Unfortunately we didn’t see too many whales but we did get to see a whale breaching which was fantastic. It was a great trip.
