The Top 5 Wildlife Tours in Juneau

Juneau offers a wealth of wildlife spotting for nature fans to enjoy during a cruise excursion. While the area is known for whale watching, there’s so much more to see - both in the water and the air. Check out our selection of Juneau wildlife tours and decide which best suits your interests - here’s a sneak peak at one of our favorites. 

On our Whale Watching & Mendenhall Glacier Tour, you’ll wind your way through the Alaskan capital’s downtown area, getting a feel for the vibrant and quirky city. Make your way to Auke Bay, your launch point for an exciting 2-hour whale watching tour on the waters outside of Juneau. Keep your eyes on the ocean as you look for humpback whales who visit Juneau for their summer feeding season - you can also expect to see sea lions, seals, and eagles on your nature-packed tour. Top this off with a stop at the Mendenhall Glacier visitor’s center and the chance to visit the Mendenhall viewpoint to enjoy epic views of the famous Mendenhall Glacier. 

We also offer Juneau wildlife tours incorporating cultural elements like visiting Alaska’s only historic lighthouse, exclusive extras like a beach landing at a remote island, or a classic Juneau whale watching tour. Check out all the options below.
