We recently took an Alaskan Cruise and selected a "Photo Safari" with Gastineau Guiding while on our Juneau port excursion. What a great choice! Our guide Adrienne, who was a professional photographer, focused on tips and help in getting those memorable, once in a lifetime shots of the wildlife, all while sharing the history, culture and breathtaking beauty of Juneau....

I went on the Photo Safari Tour with Gastineau Guiding through the cruise line I was on in May of 2012. As with most cruise line excursions it seemed a bit pricey and I almost didn't go. That would have been a BIG mistake. First of all the uncontrollable factors worked out weather, whales, and eagles. But with-out a doubt... More

We booked this tour through Royal Caribbean. Started out our tour walking through the lush rain forest in Juneau and then boarded their whale watching boat for the second part. The rain forest was gorgeous and the paths were easy to walk for our family (two adults 40s, two teens). Our guide took us to the beach where we had... More

We did the "Photo Safari by Land & Sea" with Adrienne as our tour guide. The tour started off rocky and our cruise line gave all the passengers tickets with the same time on it when there actually were 2 separate groups of the tour going(I'm not totally sure who's fault it was, but it made the tour less enjoyable...

Our wonderful guide, Cam, took us on amazing rainforest hike followed by the most amazing adventure of my life-whale watching. I would choose Gastineau Guiding again in a heartbeat. They made this an unforgettable experience.

On the Photo Safari, with a naturalist / professional photographer as the guide, you are taken on a relatively (less than two mile) hike through temperate rainforest in Juneau, leading to the Mendenhall Glacier. The foliage in the forest is amazing, the scale of the glacier impossible to adequately describe. A short bus ride to Auke Bay brings you to... More

My husband and I took the Portrait of the Mendenhall Glacier: Day Hike. We were pleasantly surprised when we learned it was just the guide and us, which allowed for a spectacular one-of-a kind adventure! Alaska offers so much beauty. (**Our trip was really Sept 2010 the computer options stopped at Nov. 2010)

My husband and I took the Photo Safari by Land and Sea through Gastineau and were somewhat disappointed. We were picked up in the tourists' downtown Juneau and driven to the dock where we boarded a not-quite-large-enough safe boat. We were told we would be split into groups of 7 so that we'd have more personal attention, as this tour... More

We booked the Whale Watching & Mendenhall Glacier Photo Safari through Princess Cruises. Our tour guide, Jim, was amazing. Jim instructed us on the best settings to use on our camera in order to capture the whale pictures. We saw many whales and got some great pictures as well. After the whale watching, we boarded a small bus to a... More
