We have always used Jayleen's Alaska for whale watching. Smaller boats and she is a native Alaskan. Her Captains pick you up at the pier and bring you back. Great company!

We're booked for a private tour for the ten of us this July with Harv & Marv's in Juneau.  They have been very responsive to my inquiries.  We'll see if they live up to their reputation, which seems positive from what I've read of them.

The board here have highly praised both of them. (Harv and Marv and Jayleen) I do not think you will do wrong with either.

 

The big thing I would look for is the time on water.  Both groups above have you on the water for 3 hours.   I think there are some others out there that have less.   Watch out for that.

We used Harv and Marv's last year.  It was a 15 pax boat and we only had about 6 people so lots of room.  The picked us up at the port, shuttled us to their marina and provided water and snacks.  A full three hours on the water.  Lots of whales and the boat captain did a great job.

 

We were very pleased with their operations and the cost was about half of the Princess tour.  The also guarantee they will get you back to the ship on time.

Jayleen's Alaska is our preferred vendor for whale watching in Juneau.  We have gone out with her numerous times and have never been disappointed.  Juneau offers many whale watching vendors.  It is important to check them out  and see if they fulfill your needs.  Some vendors offer more time on the water than others. If interested, here is Jayleen's website:  https://jayleensalaska.com/
