This is our 3rd time in Juneau and this had been our favorite tour! We got to do a little bit of everything, from stopping for a cool view of Mendenhall to a private whale watching experience and then Kayaking which was by far our favorite part. The experiences themselves were awesome but our guides are what really made the day special. Noah, Captain John and Jason were all great. Kayaking with Jason was a true highlight - just a fun guy to be around, super flexible and relaxed. Our next time in Juneau will definitely be spent with these guys again. It's a great way to get away from the big crowded tours and have a spectacular day. Don't hesitate to book this one!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re honored that on your third visit to Juneau, this was your favorite tour. It sounds like you had a perfect mix of Juneau highlights — Mendenhall views, private whale watching, and kayaking. Noah, Captain John, and Jason will be thrilled to hear your kind words. We’re especially glad kayaking with Jason was such a highlight and that the day felt flexible, relaxed, and away from the big crowds. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would love to spend another spectacular day with you next time you’re in Juneau!
Carl and Jason were the absolute best guides! We had a private group of 6 and could not be more happy with our overall experience. A MUST BOOK!!

We had a splendid experience with “Juneau Land and Sea Adventures” today. The tour was Kayaking and Whale Watching in the morning, and Glacier/Nuggets Fall viewing in the afternoon. Captain Carl and Jason ran the tour a professional way. It fulfilled our expectations and beyond. They shared many marine life knowledges; the boat is clean and well equipped; picked the best spots in Juneau for us to admire this beautiful Jewel on earth. The kayak is sit-on-top type, it is easy to get in-and-out, steady and safe. It was a full day tour with every step being looked after, demonstrates years’ of experiences and the pursue of perfection. Thank you so much for showing us beautiful Juneau!

What a treat! Our family spent a most enjoyable time with Carl & Noah, boating from Auke Bay marina out and around Benjamin Island. Carl was very flexible and eager to create a great experience for our group, including three who went out on kayaks for a while. Very glad for this opportunity - definitely the highlight of our four days in Juneau! Thank you for that!!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review. It was a real pleasure having your family out with us, and we’re so glad we could help create a flexible and memorable day on the water.

Noah and I truly appreciate you choosing us, and we’re honored to have been a highlight of your time in Juneau.
