From the time we were picked up by Sophie to the time we were dropped off it was the best time we have had in Alaska. Mike's knowledge of the lake ( and celebrities - inside joke) was awesome. I would recommend this to everyone who visits Juneau. Thanks to Sophie and Mike for being great guides. I hope the rest of the trip is as much fun as we had with you.

Very good Tour with Molly and Justin on a canoe to the Mendenhall glacier. They give good instructions about the handling of a boat and make good explanations what you see.
There is no way to come closer to the glacier by land than on this tour!

The absolute best way to see the glacier. Sophie and Jordan were the greatest guides. Their knowledge of the area and personalities only made this beautiful adventure better. Skip the other tours and go with them to see the glacier up close!

Our tour on mendenhall glacier lake was beautiful. Our tour guide Shayla did an awesome job guiding us through the lake to the glacier. She was very knowledgeable, giving us cool facts about the area while also being on the lookout for any cute animals. Her instructions on canoeing and our overall safety to not tip the boat made me feel comfortable and ready to start rowing. This was honestly an amazing experience and worth the money.

The views were phenomenal! Our tour guide Molly was so amazing! She made us feel super safe, talked us through everything and kept us laughing the whole time!! 11/10 recommend this tour and any of the tour guides (all though we obviously are bias to Molly). Would definitely do it again!

We had a great experience with this tour lead by Dawson and Riley ! Don’t get me wrong. This was a work out, but so worth the amazing views !
Between Dawson’s dad jokes and Riley’s information about the lake , wild life and the glacier, it kept our minds off how much are arms were hurting !😀
Highly recommend!

Mike and Dawson were excellent guides! We loved every second of the trip. They were professional and very patient. This is by far the best way to see the glacier up close without spending an arm and a leg for a helicopter tour. Would highly recommend it to anyone who asks me!

The took the canoe tour out to the Mendenhall Glacier and it was fantastic! Mike and Dawson were excellent guides with a great sense of humor and interesting info about the surrounding area and glacier! We were able to get very close to the glacier to see how much it has retreated and how awesome the glacier looks! We highly recommend this adventure to anyone who’d like to get up close and have fun as well!
