GenghisQuan Posted May 1, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Hi there, Anyone know how easy it is to catch a cab from the Mendenhall Glacier visitor center to the port area? I'd presume that it's pretty easy from port to glacier, just wondering whether there's an area that definitely has a bunch of cabs at the glacier, or whether I'd need to call one ahead of time. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted May 2, 2019 #2 Share Posted May 2, 2019 There is no cab line at Mendenhall. YOU have to either call for a cab, or have a prior, pick up arranged. There are 2 companies I have used, long established vendors. If not arranged in advance, then you need to call for a cab about 30 minutes prior to needing pick up.

Our early excursion is going to drop us off at Mendenhall but I have to get us a ride back to the port. How much time do you typically need at Mendenhall? We like to hike so we'd probably take an easy trail out closer to the falls. I was imagining 1.5-2 hours. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapleleaves Posted May 3, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 3, 2019 if you look in the attached Resource thread, you'll find 2 links for Mendenhall. The first link provides the name of the taxi companies. The 2nd link has a trail map with travel times for each one. (The average person can do Nuggett Falls in an hr if you keep moving. ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
