On a budget - help with one "expensive" excursion

[rritter6]

I'm on a budget but would like to do one really nice excursion while on the Spirit southbound in August. I am looking for the best "bang for my buck" and am looking for suggestions. I have done some whale watching in the past, so any other suggestions would be appreciated!

How about a helicopter ride and landing on a glacier. If you want to go a little cheaper, try a fixed wing flight on board a sea plane that takes off from the bay and flies over the glacier.

I second that on the helicopter to the glacier. Did in 2000 and will never forget it.

My vote is for Taku Lodge Flight & Feast out of Juneau. You should be able to book it through the ship or direct with vender.

Also if you look at my pictures from last year, you'll see the fabulous scenery we saw and the delicious salmon we had!:)

 

Just ask if you have any questions!
