This tour offers a fascinating perspective of the Mendenhall Glacier while providing an excellent workout. Our guides, Nigel and Jacob, were outstanding. I highly recommend this unique and enjoyable experience.
This was a fantastic experience. Nigel and Jacob were incredibly informative, supportive, and enjoyable. They picked us up near the cruise ships and even dropped us off in town since we mentioned wanting to go there. They provided snacks, drinks, and all necessary supplies. It was a great way to stay active while taking in the beautiful scenery. We saw the glacier and some eagles. I highly recommend this.
Be ready for quick changes in the weather. While kayaking to a nearby beach, we enjoyed beautiful weather and I captured many photos. However, on our return, conditions shifted dramatically; it became windy and the water turned rough. Paddling against the wind made the journey back challenging, leaving us exhausted and soaked upon arrival.
I truly enjoyed this experience. Our morning on the water with Jacob was ideal. He was very friendly and ensured we were having a wonderful time.
My experience was fantastic! While in Juneau for work alone, I managed to fit in a kayaking adventure, and it was truly delightful. I felt secure; the scenery was stunning, and our guide, Jake, was charming and excellent. I'm very happy I chose this excursion!
This experience far surpassed what I anticipated. It truly felt like being part of a National Geographic expedition. Our guide made it especially memorable, particularly since it was my birthday. Well done!
Our family enjoyed an incredible kayaking experience at the Mendenhall Glacier in Juneau, Alaska, which turned out to be the highlight of our cruise. The entire adventure was unforgettable from beginning to end. We want to express our gratitude to our guides, Nigel and Jacob, who significantly enhanced the tour. They were very knowledgeable and provided a wealth of interesting information about the glacier, local wildlife, and the region's history. They were also genuinely friendly and helped everyone feel at ease and confident while kayaking. Being so close to the glacier was a breathtaking experience that we'll remember for years. If you're thinking about this tour, go for it. It's a must-do, and with guides like Nigel and Jacob, you're in great hands. Thank you once more for such a memorable outing!
The trip was excellently organized, with clear instructions provided. The equipment was top-notch and felt safe throughout. Guides Nigel and Jacob were fantastic, and it was a delightful experience witnessing the glacier and eagles soaring above. The refreshments stop was enjoyable, and the return ride was smooth.
Our kayak tour with Paddle Juneau was fantastic, thanks to our friendly and patient guides. I was initially nervous, but they provided encouragement and reassurance throughout. They engaged us with interesting facts about Juneau while sharing personal stories on the way to our destination. It was evident that all four of us felt relaxed and excited, exchanging jokes. Their expertise in kayaking ensured everyone’s safety as we learned how to navigate waves and paddle effectively. I’ve never encountered such wonderful guides before. The soothing tea they made on-site was a delightful touch. I'm very grateful for this unforgettable experience with Nigel and his companion.
The Juneau Small Group Sea Kayaking tour was an unforgettable experience featuring breathtaking views of the Mendenhall Glacier. The entire trip was well-organized and enjoyable, with Jacob as an exceptional guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Emily and Tod also contributed to the fun atmosphere. Experiencing Alaska from the water was a highlight of our vacation. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Juneau. Thank you for the incredible adventure and lasting memories.
