Overview

Although we are the original whale-watching company in Juneau (operating since 1994), we are still small and family-owned and operated! We want you to feel like part of the family, and we pride ourselves on prioritizing local hires in order to give back to our community and give you the best possible tour experience. We want our guides to love Juneau as much as you do! Our fleet consists of only mammal-friendly jet boats, and the small size and intimate setting will make you feel right at home with the whales. We pride ourselves on our quick transfers between vehicles! We don't want you to wait any longer than you absolutely have to!

Meeting points

We meet directly below the cables of the Mount Robert's Tram. Look for a representative with a blue sign with yellow letters. Please do not go inside the Tramway building to inquire about this tour, or try to board any buses without first speaking to a representative.

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Friendly and helpful people/guide.

So i got left out on my tour bus i didn’t realized that it was a quiet long distance walk to Nugget Falls,even i ran as fast as i can,but didn’t make it to finish line. Thankfully they took me to the next group.

The best excursion ever!

Published on Sep, 2024

We had the best trip! We saw a group of approximately 5-6 whales and our guides were so knowledgeable! It was absolutely amazing! The glacier was amazing as well. We hiked down to Nugget Trail to see the waterfall which was breathtaking and a great location for pictures. I highly recommend this excursion!

Seeing the glacier and the giant waterfall and hiking down to the waterfall. It was not like anything that I have never seen before.

Absolutely wonderful experience!

Our captain and his assistant were awesome. They answered all our questions but best of all, they got us up close to so many whales. They also gave us bottled water and a good variety of snacks. I highly recommended this company!

It was a great experience.

The crew did a good job of explaining about humpback whales. Their habitat and their behavior. The boat was very fast and very comfortable.
