Juneau, Alaska Private Tours

Embark on a private whale-watching tour that pairs the opulence of your own personal yacht with the unparalleled opportunity to witness Alaska's famed wildlife. Unlike conventional boat tours that accommodate large crowds and rely on loudspeakers for communication, this excursion offers a tranquil and personal interaction with the marvels of Alaska’s fauna. 

The surrounding waters of Juneau serve as the favored feeding grounds for humpback whales, providing an excellent viewing point from the luxury yacht. There’s a good chance to spot not only humpback whales but also orcas, bald eagles, harbor seals, Steller sea lions, and occasionally, brown or black bears.

Your US Coast Guard master captain is also an expert naturalist who will take you to prime locations while sharing invaluable insights about the locale and its diverse wildlife. You’ll also have refreshments to enjoy, including coffee, tea, soft drinks, champagne, beer and wine, paired with light snacks such as a charcuterie board.

Experience the breathtaking beauty of Juneau on an Alaskan wilderness hiking adventure tailored just for you. Guided by a local expert, this private tour lets you explore the Mendenhall Glacier's edge, providing an intimate view of Alaska's awe-inspiring natural wonders. 

The journey commences in the lush Tongass Rainforest, leading you to the glacier, where you'll have the chance to observe dramatic crevasses and mesmerizing glacial formations. As the Mendenhall Glacier recedes rapidly, changes on its surface become evident, rendering it unsafe for walking directly upon. However, you'll be treated to an up-close examination from the bedrock, tracing the glacier's edges safely. 

Here, intricate ice formations, tunnels, and tubes often emerge, presenting that captivating blue hue typical of glacial ice. Although these formations can't be promised, they frequently materialize throughout the summer season. After a vigorous trek, pause by Mendenhall Lake, relishing a hearty snack as you take in the icy spectacle before you.
