Excursion canoë au lac Mendenhall

We had an amazing experience. Beautiful scenery and we were lucky to have perfect weather. Tour guide was very well informed. Just an awesome time.

A very pleasant experience! The guides were great, and Charlie shared a lot of great information about the area and the glacier during the canoe trip. Kids, ages 9 and 12, really enjoyed it as well.

Charlie was a competent, strong , warm and interesting guide. We learned a lot! We would highly recommend her and this trip.

It was an amazing trip. Highly recommend the tour. Our guide was awesome as was our driver. Beautiful trip n the lake.

From the pickup on the to the drop off point, this was a magical experience. I stayed in town and wanted to do something different. This was so much fun. I was alone and it was a fun way to see the glacier up close. Mary our bus driver was beyond amazing and deserves a raise, she was the best bus driver ever. Mary gave all sorts of fun facts about the town, flora and fauna. She also took us on a different route home to see different parts of the town. The tour itself was so much fun. I didn’t think it was a big workout, I felt fine rowing the e tire time. The glacier was so so beautiful up close. I loved it so much. We also stopped at Nugget falls on the way back and had some awesome snacks (cheese, salami, celery). Out tour guide, Oliver, was knowledgeable on the geology and plants of the area and answered everyone’s questions. We even got a rainbow at the end! Great job :)

This is a beautiful way to experience an up-close view of the Mendenhall glacier. My 9 year old and I had so much fun on the canoe ride. Nuggets Falls was amazing, too. We really enjoyed our time at the waterfall. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and this was the perfect way to spend an afternoon in Juneau. We would definitely recommend going on this adventure!

Great experience to see glacier up close and work off some of that cruise food! Nice knowledge guides and perfect timing. Highly recommend for kids too.

Canoe trip gave great views of the glacier and the stop by the waterfall was a great spot to stretch out and take some amazing pictures. We traveled with our 10 year old daughter and she had fun as well. I wasn't all too strenuous and if you have a kid who doesn't necessarily want to paddle, the canoe is large enough to allow them to sit between the two adults who can do the "work"!

We had perfect weather, which allowed amazing views of the glacier and falls. Totally worth it for the perspective that you can't get any other way. The guides were amazing! Snacks provided on the stop at Nugget Falls. Rain boots provided. It was a workout! It was very windy the day we went, so what normally feels like a 5 mile trip was more like paddling 10 miles. The whole team works together, and has fun. It was a great time - MUST DO!

This “ adventure” was a major disappointment. First, we arrived at the meeting spot on time but the bus to take us to the lake was 1/2 hr. late which meant we waited for 45 mins, not 15. Once there, The guide had a good sense of humor and tried to be fun and that was the only positive. He must have mismanaged our time on the water, though, because we were supposed to reach the beach next to the waterfall for a picnic but he said we ran out of time to do that. So we only saw the waterfall from a distance. There are new regulations limiting how near you can come to the glacier so we could only see it from a distance, as well…… about 1/4 mile away. We could have taken a free, easy, short hike from the visitor center to the waterfall. If we had, we could have seen the glacier just as well and also experienced being right at the falls. This canoe trip was not worth the cost, nor even the time and not that much fun.
