Mendenhall Glacier Float Trip

Overview

A must-see sight while in port in Juneau is the Mendenhall Glacier and on this exciting 3.5-hour white-water rafting tour, you'll get up close to this impressive natural wonder! Sit back and have fun as your guide paddles you through Class II and III rapids at the foot of the glacier. While you float along the 6-mile (9.6-km) route, take in the amazing sights of the glacier, the sheer mountains and the abundant wildlife. No rafting experience is required and this tour is suitable for the whole family. Want to be more active and involved? Ask for a paddle raft, where you will follow your guide's commands and power your raft through the 1-mile stretch of class II rapids. Whatever your preferred activity level, we can accommodate you.

We were a group of six adults and one rower. Donnie was excellent and how he found the energy to row all the way to the drop off I’ll never know! He def ate his Wheaties! The rapids were a two, one being flat. Wish we had seen more wildlife, but it was beautiful and relaxing, even though you are packed into the clothes that are a must wear. Very hard to move around, but they are use to it and it’s quite funny. We had a wonderful time!

We were a group of six older friends. We chose the float trip where the guide did the work. We had a very good guide named Spencer. He made the trip so enjoyable for us. He was very knowledgeable and personable. The scenery was beautiful. A great trip!

This is a great trip for those who want to have a relaxing ride looking at the scenery and for anyone who has never been rafting before. The day that I went didn't have a lot of rapids and were more like Class 1 rapids. I've gone rafting in Class 3 and 4 rapids before so for me this was a little slow. It was beautiful but I wouldn't suggest this for those who have rafted in the higher class rapids before.

Thank you, Debbie, for sharing your experience with us. River levels fluctuate depending on what happens up high on the glacier, flow has been a little slow but is now starting to pick up. Thank you again! Dale E Smith Director of Sales and Marketing
