About this guide

MendenhallGlacierDayTour.com is an independent guide to Mendenhall Glacier day tours from Juneau, Alaska: how long each tour leaves you at the glacier, what is bundled with it (whales, a canoe, a moraine hike or an e-bike), where it meets, and how to reach the glacier on your own. We are not a tour operator, the Forest Service or GetYourGuide. We compare the bookable options so you can choose the right one for your port day.

Facts on this site are checked against official and specialist sources, among them the U.S. Forest Service, Capital Transit, the City and Borough of Juneau, university glacier researchers and the live GetYourGuide listings. Where a figure or a rule comes from a listing, the page says so and applies it to that listing only. Trails, schedules and listing details change; when a listing or an official source and this site disagree, they win.

The site is funded by affiliate commissions: when you book through a GetYourGuide link here, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That never changes what we say, including that the glacier can be reached without a tour and that one popular combo leaves out the Nugget Falls hike. Details on the affiliate disclosure page.
