Juneau Kayaking Tours – Paddle Through Alaska’s Wild Beauty
Our Juneau kayaking tours take you into calm, scenic waters surrounded by forested mountains and wildlife. This is the perfect way to experience Alaska at a slower pace while still being fully immersed in nature.
With a maximum of just 12 guests, this tour feels personal, unrushed, and connected to the landscape around you. As you paddle through calm waters in stable kayaks, keep watch for eagles, sea lions, and occasionally even humpback whales. Every trip offers a different perspective of Alaska that you simply cannot get from shore.
Whether you are new to kayaking or already love being on the water, this experience is welcoming for a wide range of abilities and is suitable for ages 6 and up.
Hearty snacks are included, or upgrade the experience with a picnic lunch on a remote island for an even more memorable outing.
