4 tours
Good alaska cruise shore excursions sell out first once the season starts. Below are the 4 best, with current prices and what separates them, so you can book before the calendar closes up.
Juneau whale watching by Alaska Tales. Prebook for 100% whale sightings, heated boat comfort, and a cruise-friendly day with transfers.
“We had a great time and the crew was friendly, knowledgeable and got us where we saw whales. The deck got a little crowded but folks were nice about sharing space.”
See Mendenhall Glacier up close, then hunt for humpbacks on a warm wildlife cruise from Juneau, with round-trip transport included.
“The trip was great. Saw whales learned their names and the crew was great. Would definitely do this again.”
A land and water Ketchikan duck tour with live narration, calm harbor cruising, and plenty of totem poles, for $79.
“Fun land and sea tour of the port narrated by a local resident. Got to hear about the history of Ketchikan. And saw eagles once the tour hit the water. The Duck Boat vehicle kept us warm and dry with the roof and plexiglass walls.”
Volcanoes National Park, a lava tube walk, and black sand beach sea turtles on a 6-hour Hilo shore excursion.
“I will not use them again, the let us sit and wait in the terminal building for one hour without information, before they finally came with a bus and on top they cut the trip with half and hour.”
