My wife and some girlfriends are heading that way next month and I promised her I would ask. They are budgeting a bit as well. Any suggestions of "can't miss" type stuff would be fantastic.

Things to do around Juneau, Alaska? GDG
My wife and some girlfriends are heading that way next month and I promised her I would ask. They are budgeting a bit as well. Any suggestions of "can't miss" type stuff would be fantastic.
Are they coming up on a cruise?

No, they are flying in. They are actually going to end up in Haines I think.Originally Posted by Last Frontier Labs
My twin lives on the Kenai, so no help there, but her son will be going to college in Juneau this fall and JUST got back from a week up there. I'll ask them what the "don't miss" things are. It's supposed to be beautiful country!!

OK, they they will want to book some type of a wildlife viewing boat charter/tour.
You know...whales, seals, birds, sea otters...
Unless, they like fishing. Then I would say a king salmon fishing charter would be a must. (They would likely see some whales on something like this too.)

We were just in Juneau. Overall, I was not impressed. There is a reasonable museum, a glacier, and an aerial tram. If she has a chance, visit Sitka, which is a neat little place, a former Russian settlement with much more charm.
Heh, heh. I was going to say that I've not visited Juneau and it is NOT on my list of place to go LOL.

They had talked about going to Sitka but its 7 hours south? of Juneau and Haines is 4 hours North(all by ferry I guess). They are open to anything I guess.
You are a very brave man or have a very modern wife to take her and your girlfriends along on vacation!
