A must-see sight while in port in Juneau is the Mendenhall Glacier and on this exciting 3.5-hour white-water rafting tour, you'll get up close to this impressive natural wonder! Sit back and have fun as your guide paddles you through Class II and III rapids at the foot of the glacier. While you float along the 6-mile (9.6-km) route, take in the amazing sights of the glacier, the sheer mountains and the abundant wildlife. No rafting experience is required and this tour is suitable for the whole family. Want to be more active and involved? Ask for a paddle raft, where you will follow your guide's commands and power your raft through the 1-mile stretch of class II rapids. Whatever your preferred activity level, we can accommodate you.

Delightful trip with great views. Short but sweet. Our guide, Schuyler, was great. We did it as a quick morning activity from our cruise ship, then had the rest of the day to explore Juneau. Great views of the glacier, waterfall, and wildlife.

A great day out for my partner and I. The trip was well organised with a timely pick up from our cruise ship, guided tour to the lake, supply of wet weather gear and boarding our boat. The number one thing about our trip was the Beck the guy rowing the boat. Lots of information & a great sense of humour. We really enjoyed this excursion.
The only negative is we paid $25 for a digital photo that never arrived. I've emailed the company twice but had no reply! A real shame as I really wanted our photo. I recommend saving your $25 if you try the excursion!

The landscapes were beautiful, but Trent (our experienced, professional and knowledgeable guide) made this trip amazing for me. Trent was able to assist me in and out of the raft in a manner that made me feel very safe and secure. I have some physical limitations coupled with boots and the orange outerwear that complicated matters. Trent is a gem and if it hadn’t been for him, I might have chickened out.

The lake and our tour guide Nick were fantastic!!! Nick was knowledgeable, kind and an absolute sweetheart. I
gave it three stars because it felt like we were intruding rafting through the locals backyards. It was fun, a little long yet enjoyable.

The float itself was ok. No real rapids. Our guide Cayden? (From Indiana) is excellent. The saving grace was all the eagles. For all to know, you are nowhere near the glacier, the pictures are quite misleading. Everyone on the bus back said the same thing

Beck, our guide, did a great job keeping us safe and entertained. We were the first raft down to begin the 2024 season and his experience navigating the rapids was evident. We would highly recommend booking through Viator as they not only saved us some money but kept us updated about our reservation.

Fantastic fantastic, feel the Glacier under your feet.
Booking independently is good.
Not cheap but once only is great.
Informative information and the lookout is worth it.

Unfortunately this trip was cancelled due to poor weather. Assume a refund will be offered as we were only in Juneau for the day.

Jason made our rafting experience of the Mendenhall Glacier very enjoyable. The incredible views down the river were wonderful but it was his personality and knowledge of the whole area that reallly made it special.
