Step into Juneau's awe-inspiring landscape with a visit to both the Mendenhall Glacier and Glacier Gardens Rainforest Adventure. Begin a fully narrated tour with a drive past downtown Juneau en route to the gardens. There, join a forest guide aboard a covered but open-air shuttle for a mile-long journey into the heart of the rainforest and trails through the Tongass National Forest, including breathtaking views of the Mendenhall Valley. Then, venture to the Mendenhall Glacier and capture a memorable moment at the photo lookout. (2025: Staffing service may be limited, and Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center interior opening hours are limited to 10AM to 5PM.)
