I’m a bit overwhelmed trying to research and find excursions for our June trip on Radiance if the Seas. I’m using RCCL’s site as a starting point but I know there will be more options outside of their list. What are the companies you’ve had good experiences with before to even see the lists of possibilities? Skagway Tours, Alaska Shore Excursions, etc? I don’t know who might be more reputable and reliable than others, etc. We’ve nailed down whale watching in ISP and will be doing glacier dog-sledding inland before we board the ship. It’ll be me, my husband, and our active 10 yo son. Thanks!

Check out the Bering Sea Fisherman's Tour in Ketchikan. Compare prices booking directly or with RCI. We've done this twice and loved it. Usually booking directly but for our Sept cruise on RCI Serenade it's cheaper to book via the ship.....go figure !!

 

Skagway look at booking the White Pass RR with Chilkoot we did the shuttle up and train down.

We've used Chilkoot in Skagway twice (bus up, rail back) and would recommend that company. They're not taking reservations yet, with border regulations still changing, but you can contact them and get on a list for whenever that gets settled. In Juneau and Ketchikan we've just gone hiking on our own, so can't help there. In Juneau we also took a local shuttle bus to Mendenhall Glacier - I think it left from the visitor center near the docks. Cheaper than the ship shuttle.

I believe Chilkoot is taking reservations now.
