The main reason I came to Alaska was to see whales and I would say Juneau is the best place for this experience! Not only did they know exactly where the whales were, but we were able to see a mama and baby whale! The baby was breaching and putting on quite the show! The naturalist on board was great at giving facts about humpback whales and the day was perfect! We also were taken to Mendenhall Glacier where we hiked about a mile to Nugget Falls. I highly recommend this combo tour as it gives you a great glimpse at the natural wonders! While the bussing back to our ship could be a bit more organized, if you are patient and don't wait until the last minute to get the bus, then you will be fine! It's a popular destination in the height of the season, so patience is always needed!
