Juneau Highlights City Tour

Juneau is the capital city of Alaska and the only capital in the United States that does not have roads connecting it to the rest of the state or the mainland, thanks to its rugged terrain.

On this Juneau shore excursion tour, your local guide will take you take you along charming streets and past all the major landmarks.

Your tour journey begins in Juneau as you step aboard your comfortable minibus for a scenic ride past the State Capitol Building, the Governor's House and the Russian Orthodox Church.

Make a stop at the Alaska State Museum where you will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in Alaskan culture and gain an appreciation for its rich and diverse history. Continue to Douglas Island for gorgeous views and photos of the Juneau coastline and Gastineau Channel.

From there you will make a stop at the Macaulay Hatchery, commonly referred to as DIPAC by the locals. Learn about the salmon industry, observe various marine life and watch the salmon run up the ladder (depending on the time of the year).

Conclude your tour with a stop at the 50-acre Glacier Gardens Rainforest Adventure in the Tongass National Forest. Walk through this award winning botanical garden and admire the flower towers as your guide fills you in on this region's varied ecosystem.

Your tour will end near "Deckhand Dave's", the latest go-to food option in Juneau. Each guest will have a voucher for a free dish of his signature rock-fish tacos. This new venue only serves locally caught fish in a fantastic creative way. This family friendly tour is a perfect introduction to Alaska, especially for those who are short on time. Reserve your spot today.

The company was very friendly and knowledgeable about the city and the places we went. I fell like the amount of time spent in each of the locations was enough. Thanks, for a wonderful introduction to the city.

Awesome tour and amazing guide!

Awesome tour and amazing guide! We were met promptly at the dock as directed. Our guide was Nathan. He was friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. All of the destinations, which included the museum, the gardens, the hatchery, and other stops were incredible. Nathan answered questions and was a wealth of information. It was apparent that he loved the area and was excited to share both stories and facts as we travelled. We booked this tour because our cruise cancelled our previously scheduled shore excursion and we were impressed with the small size of the tour in comparison to the ones provided by our ship and the amount of terrain we covered. I would definitely book with this company again and am thankful they could fill the void left by the cruise ship.

Best Pictures from this Tour

My husband and I went on this tour during our cruise. Everyone associated with the tour was awesome. It did not feel like I was on a scripted tour, it felt like I was on a tour with friends. We learned more about the totem poles, the museum, the hatchery, a tree garden, and beautiful scenic views where we were able to take some amazing pictures. We also got some food and beverage vouchers. Great tour and we got the best pictures from this tour!
