    Juneau has been called “Alaska's peak experience,” certainly due in part to its unparalleled glacier viewing from such places as Tracy Arm Fjord, the Juneau Icefields and Glacier Bay National Park. Kayak up one of the area's many protected waterways, go flightseeing, tour historic downtown or try your hand at panning for gold. The majestic Mendenhall Glacier lies nearly 12 miles outside Juneau, a worthwhile trek.

  • Remainder of DayDawes Glacier

    Visitors come to Alaska for glaciers like Dawes, and the journey through Endicott Arm is part of the thrill. This lesser-traveled fjord features sheer granite walls, cascading waterfalls, and dense spruce and hemlock forests in a pristine setting. Along the 31-mile route, watch for sculpted "bergy bits" and wildlife such as bears, seals, and whales. At its head, the active Dawes Glacier—600 feet tall and half a mile wide—calves dramatically, making it a highlight of any Alaska cruise.
