Creator's Key Takeaways

i think we managed to capture one photo because we were in the moment watching his antics and enjoying ourselves so much that we forgot about cameras

please be kind and show some consideration for others

everything about the excursion had been great up until this point we ended up waiting nearly one hour in the pouring rain with little to no communication from the tour company

we're just really grateful to be able to travel and have these experiences

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book independent tours through Juneau Tours for flexibility and cost savings
βœ“Wear waterproof shoes with good traction for Mendenhall Glacier trails
βœ“Hold off on buying Mount Roberts Tramway tickets until arrival to assess weather
