wolfie11 Posted February 7, 2006 #2 Share Posted February 7, 2006 This is pretty weather-dependent. If it's a nice day - go. But if the visibility is bad, go only if you're an avid hiker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krewzin Posted February 7, 2006 #3 Share Posted February 7, 2006 I take it this can be booked/purchased upon arrival at the tram...no pre purchase necessary? How far izzit from the dock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qcruise Posted February 7, 2006 #4 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Like stated above.... don't pre-buy this but get a ticket when there if the weather is good.... a ticket will let you ride up and down all day long as many times as you want.....good plan....:) It's right there where the ships dock.....

mbisson Posted February 8, 2006 #5 Share Posted February 8, 2006 To me,the tram is more a time filler/killer than a must do. It's Ok & you can get a great view of the ships and beautiful downtown Juneau. I'm glad to have done it once, but doubt that I will ever do it again. jmo -Monte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted February 8, 2006 #6 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Definately don't prepurchase Mt. Roberts tram tickets. Also be aware they are for the full day, so if in port late, take a ride up at dusk/night. Very very beautiful views with Juneau and the ships lit up.

No prepurchase necessary - it pretty much is AT the dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjblk Posted February 9, 2006 #8 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Like others have said, you can buy your ticket when you arrive. You only want to go up if it's a somewhat clear day. You'll get great views. And if you like to hike there a number of trails that you can take if you have the time. We went part way up one and had some more great views. But again only if you like to hike as parts are strenuous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
