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. If you are in Juneau all day - you can take advantage of our flexible Glacier Shuttle to get back to town. If you arrive in the afternoon expect to get 90 minutes 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.

The tour guide Courtney was highly knowledgeable and knew the whales by their names and where to locate them. We saw several whales on our trip and the ride itself of Auke bay was extremely beautiful. Captured several pictures and will relish this experience for years to come. Thank you.

This excursion with this company should be at the top of your Juneau list. The Mendenhall Glacier portion of the excursion was interesting. We had a great bus driver who provided good background on the area and the glacier. The glacier area was beautiful, clean, and had a few park rangers available to explain what you were seeing. The whale watching was simply incredible. Captain Sarah and Naturalist Katie were very professional, fun, and great guides. Sarah got us out to the whales quickly and we saw a bunch of spouting, a few tail fins, and a bunch of whales near the surface. A humpback breached and that would have made the excursion...until we saw a mother humpback and her calf breach simultaneously. Then the mother and the calf put on a show by slapping the fins on the water's surface and breaching individually five or six more times. The whale watching portion of this excursion quickly became my favorite vacation memory of all time. I was fortunate to experience it with my wife and adult children plus some friends who happened to be our on boat. The double breach was so extraordinary that I've run out of superlatives when describing it to people back home. Book this excursion and ask for Captain Sarah and Katie.
