Juneau Shore Excursions

Shore Excursions for the Cruise Ship Passenger

Gastineau Guiding is committed to providing the same high level of quality and service that you are accustomed to receiving from your cruise line. For convenience and availability, use our web links, at the bottom of each tour description, to reserve and book your shore excursion directly with your cruise line.

Each tour is limited to a small group of guests where personable service, individual participation and attention to detail are the norm.
These interactive adventures are scheduled to coincide with your ship's port of call, and are dispatched by a member of your cruise line as well as one of our dock representatives.
All tours include transportation to and from your cruise ship dock, and are led by a professional interpretive guide for the entirety of the tour.
Gastineau Guiding Co. is a local Juneau operator who is not owned by the cruiseline, so your booking dollars directly benifit our community and the local organizations we support.
Cruiseline prices may vary slightly, but are all very close to our advertised retail price.
Not all tours are offered by every cruise line. Tours not offered by your cruise line may be found either on this page or on the Independent Traveler Tours section of this website.
