Overview

While most visitors only see the Mendenhall Glacier from crowded viewpoints, this tour takes adventurous travelers on a canoe trip to the base of the glacier for a completely different perspective of the majestic ice. With canoe lessons and a guide, the tour is open to first-time paddlers and the mellow water means you can take along a camera and capture the arctic cliffs, icebergs, and pristine blue ice.

Our family did this excursion during our stop in Juneau on our Alaskan cruise. It was fantastic! Our kids (12 & 15) loved it and paddled the whole time. Breathtaking views of the glacier and Nugget Falls!

This was our family’s highlight (parents and young adults) of all our port of call experiences. Abby our tour operator was informed, positive and encouraging. We highly recommend her! And even though we had had fantastic glacial viewings when our ship cruised Glacier Bay, being up close and personal-within a couple hundred yards from our canoe of Mendenhall was unexpectedly breathtaking to glory in its face in silent wonder.

The silence of the Alaskan wilderness is something we think everyone visiting Alaska should experience. We are so happy to be a part of your family's Alaskan memories. Thank you.
