Based on the price paid for this tour, I feel it was not really worth it. Those in charge of the tour seemed disorganized, telling us we needed to be back to the original point of contact by 3pm for the gold panning part of the tour and then changed their mind after we got there to 3:30. So we basically wasted 30 minutes of our time in Juneau standing and waiting. Then when we got on the shuttle for the gold panning part, the driver thought he was to take us to the salmon bake part afterward, but 4 of us had already been there. Not sure where the communication break-down occurred. While the food was good and the gold panning were fun, I think it was priced about $30 too high.
Excellent tour! Found some gold! Salmon bake was superb. Lots to eat and a good variety!
This was a blast. The salmon bake was terrific, but both my wife and I truly enjoyed the gold panning experience. About the only thing I would ask for is more time prospecting.
