Juneau, Alaska Port Reviews

Shore excursion was amazing, we didn't get much time at port

If Norwegian can do things easy or hard, they’ll choose hard! Every port we had to shuttle to the town we were visiting while other ships docked in town. Maybe that’s beyond their control but when it’s every port and it takes at least 1-1.5 hours out of the ridiculously short time you have in port, it’s very annoying.

Alaska is a breathtaking, every port is great and so much to see it, the views are spectacular.

No

Great if you rent a car through Turo and get out to Mendenhall Glacier. Downtown was packed with half open stores. Tourist gimmicky type stuff “made in China”

Good shopping

Not everything was open (we knew that going in as it was very early season). What we didn’t like is that it was much more “big city” feel compared to other ports. Also it felt like some of the shop owners were a bit more pushy. Tracy’s Crabs were a 10/10, but a bit $$$.

Juneau was a typical touristy area, at least within walking distance. However, did have a fun bar to pass the time. Would like to go back someday and venture further.

Lovely town

We took an excursion to Mendenhall Glacier. The bus driver provided lots of information about the area while en route. We had a good amount of time to explore once we arrived at the Glacier. After the glacier, we returned to Juneau for a great crab lunch and then rode the tram to the top of the mountain. The views at the top were great, and we saw a bald eagle!
