The captain and naturalists will take you on a search for whales in Favorite Channel, Stephens Passage, Lynn Canal or Saginaw Channel. Binoculars are provided for your added viewing pleasure.
However the highlight of this 2-hour Whale Watching Adventure is seeing the humpback whales which are feeding in the nutrient rich Alaskan waters. Once a whale is spotted your captain will slow down to allow you outside on the viewing decks for excellent picture opportunities and an up close experience. In addition, hydrophones may be lowered into the water to allow you to hear the whales communicate with each other.
Each boat is fully enclosed and heated with a marine restroom on board and capacity is kept to under 50 passengers per boat. The small groups create a great environment for wildlife viewing in the great Alaskan outdoors. Your captain is specifically trained to follow federal viewing guidelines from a safe distance.
After, you can experience the amazing Mendenhall Glacier. The glacier is located in the center of the Mendenhall Valley, which is located between Downtown Juneau and Auke Bay. You will have approximately 45 to 60 minutes near Mendenhall Glacier where you may enjoy the scenery or take a stroll on one of the numerous trails. While you visit the glacier you may take photos and searching for different types of wildlife.
Please note: You will not physically stand on the glacier. You will be approximately 1 mile (1.6km) away.
Whale Sightings guaranteed! If no whale is sighted on the tour, you will be given a refund of $100.00 per adult/$50.00 per child.

Which animals may be sighted on the Juneau Whale Watching Adventure?
Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae)
During the season Humpback Whales are spotted on more than 99% of
tours. There are many humpback whales that feed, socialize and play in
the waters near Juneau from mid-April through October. Humpbacks are
among the most playful whales, and often breach (leap from the water),
bubble net feed, and slap their tails. Humpback whales are seen more
often than any other mammal. Most of the humpback whales here in Juneau
spend their winter in Hawaii. There are a few humpback whales that can
be found here year around.
Orca (Orcinus orca)
Orca whales, also known as "Killer" Whales, can be seen any day of the
year in the Juneau area. These hunters search for salmon and small
marine mammals over a large area. A "pod" of Orca are spotted about
every 5 to 15 days during the summer, as they hunt nearby. Orca whales
are active and fast moving, and stay in tight family groups for their
entire lives. The family pod will travel together with the dominate
males traveling in a separate group nearby. The orca whales can be seen
with their fins rising out of the water. The alpha male of the group
will have the tallest fin, sometime up to 6 ft. out of the water. These
whales are found in all oceans over the world. Length up to 30 ft. (9.1
meters).
Dall's Porpoise (Phocoenoides dalli)
This strikingly marked, fast swimming porpoise loves to ride the bow
wave of a boat...sometimes. They are very playful and will often jump
out of the water. These animals are seen on most trips until July, and
then occasionally through September. These fun playful animals are a
wonderful addition to any trip. Length up to 6.5 ft. (2 meters).
Harbor Porpoise (Phocoena phocoena)
These quiet, shy animals are hard to spot and rarely surface more than
once near boats. Occasionally seen in passing. Length up to 6 ft. (1.8
meters).
Steller Sea Lions (Eumetopias jubatus)
Steller Sea Lions are curious and often approach the boat singly or in
groups. Occasionally, these animals are known to steal fish from your
fishing line. These animals can be seen hauled out on channel markers or
rocks from April through September. In addition, these animals can be
herd grunting continually while they sun themselves on the haul outs.
Hundreds live near Juneau. Endangered and population declining in
western Alaska, but they are doing better in Southeast Alaska. Males are
up to 10.5 ft. (3.2 meters), Females are up to 7 ft. (2.1 meters).
Harbor Seals (Phoca vitulina)
Harbor Seals are common, but shy and reclusive. These animals often
haul out on rocks or blocks of ice. They can be seen as their small
round heads bob in and out of the water. Seals exhale as they dive and
can reach great depths. Hundreds live near Juneau and are seen on many
of our tours. These cute little animals are a favorite picture
opportunity for many passengers on tour. Length up to 5 ft. (1.5
meters).

Seeing the orcas and watching one breech right off the stern of the boat was phenominal.

We enjoyed this adventure thoroughly. A little nervous since a shipboard time was the same as the end of the tour but they got us back on time. From the driver of the bus who was pleasant and informative, to the whales portion which was spectacular to our trip to Mendenhall Glacier they shined .

Ashley and Amy ? were excellent tour guides for the whale watching on the Raven . We saw a rare sighting of several whales performing the bubble net maneuver and come up with mouths open simultaneously. Amazing! These girls are well suited for their positions with the tour and I'd recommend this tour to anyone!

Nice boat and knowledgable staff. Saw 4 or 5 humpback whales fairly close. Couldn't have asked for a nicer excursion.

It was pretty rough, but loved our tour director and driver. We saw lots of whales and the trip to the glacier was spectacular, as well!

Even with the rain, this whale watching boat was very personalized and smaller than the offerings of other companies. The ranger and boat captain were extra friendly and we enjoyed the experience. The bus drivers were very nice and accomodating as well.

We had an amazing time with our Whale Watching with Captian Amy and Ashley. We not only saw quite a few solitary whales but experienced the rare bubble feeding by the hump backs. Possibly 15 whales participated in the feeding after the male blew bubbles around the fish to keep them all together. What an experience to see all these whales coming up together with their mouths open to feed! So awesome! Thank you to the crew for the once in a life time experience!
