Why people love this tour
People love this tour as it is done in smaller boats than what the cruise line uses which allows you to get to the whale watching grounds faster and get closer to the whales.
Overview
Your driver will be waiting to take you on a scenic 20-30 minute bus ride to the marina and narrating points of interest in Juneau along the way.
Arriving in Auke Bay, get ready to board your comfortable boat and settle in for your tour. Your boat is custom designed and offers heated cabins, and restrooms, offering great views from every seat. You will immediately be ready to explore the sea life, and during this short cruise, you may see humpback whales and Steller sea lions. In addition, your guides will point out other sea life such as orcas (killer whales), harbor seals, and Dall's porpoise, along with various sea and shore birds. You may also use the open deck and upper-level observation areas if the weather allows.
Your 2 hour journey on board the boat, you will feel up close to nature, take in all the Alaskan wilderness, and take memorable photos.
Your driver will be waiting to drive you back to your cruise port at the end of your tour.

Considerations
-
Optional shuttle pass for guests arriving at the AJ Dock, $3 (USD) for an all-day pass to provide transportation between the AJ Dock to the meeting/ending point of the tour.
-
All other cruise docks are under a 10 minute walk to your meeting point.
-
The boat ride can be bumpy and unsuitable for guests with neck, back, or hip problems
-
Guests must be able to get on and off the bus and navigate the steep incline between the bus and the whale watching boat. Folding, non-motorized wheelchairs are welcome - but we cannot accommodate any motorized wheelchairs/scooters or those that do not fold up flat. If you are using a manual folding wheelchair - you will be able to use a ramp to get from the bus drop-off point down to the boat. This is a steeper ramp so a member of your party will need to assist you in getting down/up the ramp. You will need to take a few steps to get onto the boat. The folding manual wheelchair will then be stored on the boat.
