Premier Juneau Whale Watching Expedition

Overview
Your 3 hour whale watching adventure begins when you board a coach bus that departs downtown Juneau from the Mt. Roberts Tram parking lot. A 25 minute journey through the picturesque landscape of Southeast Alaska will take you to Auke Bay Harbor. “All aboard!” and you’re off for Alaska waters and the ultimate whale watching experience. The star of the tour is the humpback whale, but we are always looking out for sea lions, bald eagles, or the playful orca. The whales are here to feed in our abundant Alaskan waters.  Our naturalist guides you on a 2 hour whale watching tour. With our experienced captains and Juneau being one of the best ports for whale watching in Alaska, this tour will be an unforgettable experience. A light snack and refreshments will be provided.

Seeing many whale tails and blows. It was a beautiful day. The crew was very nice and let my grandson go topside. He loved it. Thanks for the snacks.

We loved this whale watching experience! We were well taken care of by Calvin, Brock and Captain Dustin, they were very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. We were in awe as we watched the humpback whales, we saw at least a dozen whales while we were out. This was the best whale watching excursion we’ve been on. The boat was clean and comfortable too. We will definitely go on this excursion the next time we are in Juneau.
