The time spent at the...

5.00The time spent at the glacier was just enough to walk out to the falls, tour the visitor center, and watch the movie. Mary, our driver/ guide, was very informative.
Simple shuttle where the extra time is of value!

5.00Although a simple trolley shuttle to the Glacier and back, our driver was friendly and informative on route. We appreciated the extra time compared to other tours giving ample time to wander down to Nugget Falls and back!
Satisfied.

5.00My family of 4 (2 grown kids) loved this tour. We were lucky enough to get Wayne as our driver and he was so informative! He gave us so much info on the history of Juneau on the quick drive to the glacier. We were dropped off in main parking lot at the visitors center and were give. 2 hours to explore. We hiked multiple trails and Wayne had the trolley waiting and ready for us when we were done. On the ride back thru town he gave us restaurant and bar info and more history! It was so well organized and I would 100% recommend this as a fast, easy and great way to spend some time at Mendenhall
Enjoyable, knowledgeable tour!

5.00Great tour! Easy, clear instructions about meeting place & time. Guide was enjoyable and knowledgeable (can’t remember his name but he was a retired NY State trooper). Price was considerably less than a ship excursion. Would recommend to others.
Princess alternative.

5.00Cheaper than ship tours. Wayne was a great guide and driver. They’ve never missed a ship sailing. Falls and Glacier was breathtaking.
