Too Many Shore Excursions in Juneau

[bearrabbit]

Our ship will be in Juneau on7/17/05 from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM.

 

Right now we are looking at "Mount Roberts Tramway"; "Whale Watching & Wildlife Cruise" (4 hours); and "Glacier Flightseeing via Floatplane" (1-1/4 hours). It would be possible to SQUEEZE all 3 in before we leave, but just barely AND that would also mean that we'd have absolutely no time to walk around the town.

 

The only other way we see it is to cut out the "Whale Watching and Wildlife Cruise and take a longer Flightseeing excursion and then do the whale watching in Icy Straits.

 

Anyone have any suggestions as to which trip I definitely don't want to miss.

 

And did all of you who have done Alaska before save time for touring around the towns in addition to your excursions???

The tram would be low priority for me and frankly glacier helicopter landings are superior to the flightseeing. You can make very good use of time by combo booking independently Orca Enterprises and Coastal helicopters. Then probably plenty of time for the tram if still desired. I have done both and certainly my opinion only. You can't do it all, that is way you see all the repeat visitors here. :)
