I`d like your views and to hear your experiences. We are going to be in Juneau, Ketchican & Icy Point in early May.

I have been looking around for the same information.

It does appear that many towns' visitors centers have maps available for self guided tours.

Hope this helps get you started.

I just put this link in another post, and will add it here as the original thread is probably now a few pages down in the forum. This has links to walking tours in all the major ports (not sure about Icy Strait Point...): http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1573031

 

Hope this helps!

Head to your library and take out Frommer's Alaska and Fodor's Alaska, but have informative walking tours. As mentioned- each visitor center usually has walking tour brochures.

 

You may also want to consider getting out of the cities.
