Easy pick up. Lots of time to see the glacier. Friendly driver! We enjoyed the commentary during the drive.
Our tour guide was excellent. He was very informative and ensured our entire trip was enjoyable. He made sure our first time in Juneau was memorable!
So peaceful and beautiful, our pilot was knowledgeable and so sweet. The beauty was worth every penny.
Great communication prior to tour. Our guide took a pic of his van and told us exactly where he would pick us up. Great time at the Glaciers, Shrine and whale exhibit. Our guide was very knowledgeable of Juneau and the surrounding area. Offered us soft drinks and water throughout the tour. Great day!
Pedz was amazing. We enjoy our tour. He was on time and was very informative. He took the time to take photos for us and tell us his experience when visiting the sites. I would highly recommend taking this tour with him.

Take the short ‘hike’ to Nugget Falls at Mendenhall Glacier - it’s paved and mostly flat. Spend as much time as you can at the shrine of St. Therese - it’s so beautiful and serene. We spotted seals and a whale in the surrounding waters.
Pedz was incredible. Gave us a personal tour and was very knowledgeable about Juneau. I would definitely recommend this tour.
