Description

Transform your Juneau adventure with the Juneau Driving Extended Tour, a self-guided audio tour that turns a scenic 70-mile drive into an engaging Alaskan narrative. Created by a born and raised Southeast Alaskan, this offline GPS-enabled experience provides hands-free audio that automatically plays as you explore Juneau's hidden gems, from the breathtaking icefields to the historic Treadwell gold mine. While others rush past, you will uncover the real Last Frontier. Marvel at a massive icefield, explore Eagle Beach, and visit the Shrine of St. Therese. The app guides you to spots the buses completely skip, like the ghost town at Amalga, the sunken Treadwell gold mine, and the Macaulay Hatchery. Hear thrilling history about the Áakʼw Ḵwáan, the wrecked Princess Sophia, and an island that gave up millions in gold before the ocean swallowed it whole.
