Great Excursion - We loved this excursion and had plenty of time to visit the glacier. We stayed on schedule which was really nice. We got to see several whales. My only complaint would be that we had no idea where to meet for the excursion until the morning of. I could not locate it on the Viator website and attempted to contact the operator. I got no response but then the next morning everything was updated on the website. The tour stated 4 1/2 hours, but we actually got back within four hours. We were thankful because it gave us a little time in town, and we were able to get back to the ship on time with no stress.

Wonderful excursion in Juneau - We enjoyed the visit to the Mendenhall Glacier and the whale watching where we saw many whales! I suggest that you reserve the front seats on the bus for handicapped people and that you deploy a motor coach rather than a school bus that was very uncomfortable.

Whale watching - Had a great time. Got to see some whales and the beautiful glacier. Our driver Tom did a great job showing us around and adding a bit of “color commicating ” to our experience .
