Premier Whale Watch and Mendenhall Glacier Combo

Overview
Join us for Whale Watching in our cool Alaskan waters and then view one of 38 glaciers from the Juneau Ice Fields - the spectacular Mendenhall Glacier. We guide you on a 2 hour whale watching tour, spotting Humpback whales and other wildlife. Then off to the Mendenhall Glacier to spend some time hiking, watching fish spawn at Steep Creek or enjoy an outstanding view from the Visitor Center. You get 1.5 hours at the park, but don't worry! That is the perfect amount of time to walk to nugget falls and take in the displays at the visitor center.

We loved the excursion we did from the cruise we recently took to Alaska. The Josh and his tour guides were very knowledgeable about the area and knew where the whales were. We saw several whales breach in late July and one was identified as a mother and her calf. We also saw eagles and seals on the tour. We did the whale watching first and then the Mendenhall Glacier. The Whale watching part was worth the money alone. The glacier was an added bonus that was OK. Would recommend Juneau tours!

This was a fantastic trip - crew was highly energetic & knowledgeable (Cpt Daniel, Maryna And Courtney). We saw many whales & learned a lot of interesting facts. Would definitely recommend.

This tour was possibly the wildlife highlight of our cruise! The Captains and tour operators know how and where to find any whales in the area!
