Juneau Private Bike Tour w Glacier Views (and Extra Sightseeing)
The only private bike tour in Juneau! The best way to experience the area on the ground, and then in a vehicle! Enjoy the intimacy of just your family and friends — up to 4 — on a bike ride a few miles from the Mendenhall Glacier. Then continue exploring other scenic spots in a luxury hybrid SUV. Travel briefly on your bike through a quiet residential neighborhood to the first glacier lookout, before riding along a flat nature trail with more great views of the glacier. The easy-paced bike ride lasts around 1-1.5 hours (3-4 miles total), with amazing photo opportunities. After the leisurely ride, at your pace, we do some sightseeing, including an optional visit to the DIPAC salmon hatchery, in a SUV. If you do not want to see the hatchery, we visit another scenic spot or two instead. Tour guide is a local family man, who has lived in Juneau since 2016. * More people in your group means more savings per person * Guaranteed to return you to your ship before its departure
