Juneau + 4 Cruises to Know About in July

With its rich history and breathtaking scenery, Juneau captivates and delights. No matter what you decide to do during your visit to Juneau, you’ll enjoy your time in Alaska’s beautiful capital. Check out these exciting excursion options when visiting this charming port of call.

Private Whale Watching

Escape the crowds and board your private boat for a whale watching experience like no other. See these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. You’ll have plenty of time to spot both humpback and orca whales during your excursion. Be on the lookout for bears, sea lions, eagles, and porpoises, too!

Helicopter Dog Sledding

Begin your adventure with a flyover of the Juneau Icefield. Your knowledgeable helicopter pilot will fly you over dramatic icefalls and rock formations, sharing insight along the way. Once you land, you’ll interact with 80 gorgeous Alaskan huskies (and their musher) listening to personal accounts of the Iditarod and backcountry experiences. And finally, you’ll try your own hand at driving a dog team. What a thrilling experience!

Kayak and Salmon Bake

Get up close to the magical Mendenhall Glacier with a kayak adventure. Permits for kayaking on Lake Mendenhall are limited, giving you a once in a lifetime experience not all visitors to Alaska will be able to brag about. As you paddle in your two-person kayak, marvel at the scenic views. Your guide will share the area’s history and help you spot the native wildlife. End the day with a delicious Salmon bake feast before returning to your cruise ship.

Private Glacier Trek

If you’re looking for something more active, then a private glacier trek is the right choice for you. Take in the picturesque views on a 3-hour hike over a 4-mile trail. Your guide will navigate you along this isolated trail until you reach the glacier. At this point, you’ll strap on your crampons to trek across the glacial terrain. This exhilarating (but challenging) hike will be an adventure to remember.

Alaskan Wild Salmon Fishing

Get to know the migration patterns of the salmon as you try your hand at Alaskan salmon fishing on a four-hour boat charter with an expert fishing guide. Check with your guide about having your catch professionally processed locally and shipped to your home. You’ll be able to enjoy a delicious dinner after your trip and reminisce about the wonderful time you had!
