Juneau Tours and Whale Watch

5 months ago

We had an unforgettable experience with Juneau Tours and Whale Watch on a stunning September day in Juneau. The tour took place aboard one of their newer boats, which was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for wildlife viewing. With 40 passengers and a fantastic 3-person crew—Captain Ben, Sarah, and Noah—we felt safe, informed, and thoroughly entertained. All three crew members were seasoned professionals, but special kudos go to Sarah, whose passion for Alaska and the whales was infectious. She shared fascinating stories and facts, blending her personal background with deep local knowledge in a way that made the entire trip even more meaningful. It took a little time to reach the whales, but the wait was absolutely worth it. We ended up seeing about 6 of the 9 whales spotted that day—an incredible experience! The crew was respectful of wildlife regulations, keeping a 1,000-yard distance to ensure the whales’ safety and comfort, which we really appreciated. As a bonus, we also got a breathtaking view of Mendenhall Glacier from the water—a perfect addition to the tour. Overall, this was a highlight of our Alaskan adventure. The tour was well-organized, informative, and exciting from start to finish. Definitely well worth the money. Highly recommended!

Had an amazing time with my partner, decided to not book on the cruise ship and it was the best idea not to because we stumbled upon Juneau Tours & Whale Watch Tour which was the best tour site off the ship with the best offers! Jayden was truly amazing and extremely entertaining, he shared so many interesting facts about whales with us. The Captain Ben made the ride as smooth as possible with amazing sights of the glaciers and whales surrounding us. John was very alert of whale sightings and made sure everyone on the boat knew when a whale was visible. Overall this was the best excursion I have done in all the time I have spent in Alaska. Thank you guys for an amazing experience

Captain Mac and crew Jayden and Calvin were fantastic! Very knowledgeable and we saw whales within minutes of leaving the harbour. It was late in the season so we were nervous we might not see any. They took us straight to the best locations and we saw whales barnacles, Sasha and her calf Cha Cha. Great tour, also the views of the glaciers and mountain ranges.
