In Skagway we did the White Pass Summit Rail & Bus excursion. I booked this with CHILKOOT CHARTERS & TOURS
SKAGWAY, ALASKA (907) 983-3400.
I did some research on this excursion through Princess and the local outfitters. This outfitter was highly recommended.
It was a great outing. We had a great guide (Mike) and we had the last car on the train. It was great for photographing the panoramic vistas. The bus was a small bus and we were able to stop at Bridal Veil falls which I don't think the big buses can do.
When I get a chance, I'll come back to tell you about our other excursions.
It's a wonderful trip!

We did the train ride in Skagway as well. Absolutely gorgeous views and highly recommended if you like to take pictures. Bring a good camera.
In Juneau we got off on the catamaran at the glacier. You will probably not get into Tracey Arm but they will take you down to Endicott Glacier. Highly recommend this. We did whale watching in Juneau in the evening and loved it but we saw so many whales coming back from the glacier that it wasn't really necessary to do both. I say do the glacier if you don't want to do both, you get the best of both with that trip.
We are going back on June 4th but going out of Vancouver. I think this trip we will take it easy on excursions since we saw so much last time. One thing we are doing out of Juneau is the trip to Taku Lodge. It is supposed to amazing. Plane ride there over glaciers then a few hours at the lodge with a salmon bake. They have a bear that comes around. I hope it doesn't fill up because I am waiting to book on board since we have a good $600 in OBC.
