Ship tip
Enjoy your trip, take in excursions at each port, and get ready to have a great time of your life.
Our time in Juneau seemed short even though we were able to take a canoe trip to Mendenhall glacier. We had a delightful time seeing the glacier up close and seeing Nugget falls.
Thé Wilderness Exploration Cruise and Crab Feast was the best! The guide called in eagles to almost take fish out of her hand. The eagles would catch it fish as she threw it up in the air. We were able to handle the live crabs from the traps as she discussed their biology and life as a crab.
Yes, we took the Butchart & Butterfly excursion. We have been here before two other times. We didn’t get into port until 6:00 PM so we only had about forty-five minutes before it was dark. It would have been better had we had more daylight.
Glad you enjoyed it. For more time in the ports, do a one-way itinerary rather than Roundtrip from Seattle. They have to shorten the port times to get back to Seattle and also stop at Victoria only to comply with the Jones Act.
