THIS TOUR IS PROVIDED BY JUNEAU TOURS & WHALE WATCH
Your 3-hour whale watching adventure begins with boarding a coach bus departing from downtown Juneau's Mt. Roberts Tram parking lot.
A 25-minute drive through the picturesque scenery of Southeast Alaska will bring you to Auke Bay Harbor. Get ready to board and set off into Alaskan waters for the ultimate whale watching experience.
While searching for whales, we'll also be on the lookout for bald eagles, seals, sea lions, black bears, and other Alaskan wildlife. The humpback whale is the star, but we also watch for playful orcas.
Upon spotting a whale, the captain will reduce speed, allowing you to move to the spacious viewing decks for excellent photo opportunities.
Near the end of the cruise, we'll make a 5-minute stop on the water for a photo opportunity of the Mendenhall Glacier (weather permitting).
Our specially designed boats offer unobstructed views from both the heated indoor cabin and the outdoor decks. We recommend dressing in layers, as it is Alaska after all!
Snacks are also provided on board.
