Creator's Key Takeaways

Overall, you know, I mean, Juno was a good was a good fun port except for the rain, but it's Alaska, so you just have to expect the rain.

If you go definitely go to Mindenhal Glacier if it's your first visit there.

I just said with only having part of the time and we didn't have a lot of time once we got back, we only had about an hour and a half and I wasn't going to pay $60 for an all day pass.

The Nugget Falls trail is about 2 miles round trip and it takes approximately an hour and a half to complete.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book the earliest tour to avoid crowds on the Nugget Falls trail.
Be prepared for rain in Alaska, even with weather-repellent gear.
If you have time, consider taking the Gold Belt tram for views.
