gilliansp Posted February 10, 2022 #1 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Hello! Advice please. We will definitely be visiting the Matunska Glacier whilst in Anchorage and am not sure when in Juneau to also visit the Mendenhall Glacier as well or will it just be a similar experience? If so, then we will definitely do something different in Juneau, probably whale watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKStafford Posted February 10, 2022 #2 Share Posted February 10, 2022 If you've already had a glacier experience, I'd use Juneau as whale watching opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J0Y0US Posted February 10, 2022 #3 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Are you cruising? What about other stops along the way? Mendenhall is a good spot to visit. How long are you in port? Could you possibly do both? Pretty sure I saw combo Whale+Mendenhall options in the past so you might look in to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we are doing our own land tour + cruise, visiting Sitka, Juneau, Skagway and Ketchikan. Really wanted to see some bears as well but I think we are to late, 3rd week September, for any quality bear excursions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katrina915 Posted February 15, 2022 #6 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I usually see bears at steep creek at Mendenhall. Did in September and in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think we will have time to do a whale watching tour and visit Sreep Creek, as opposed to spending time on the glacier itself? We will be in port from 9am - 10pm?
