FAQs about Juneau Tours

What is the best way to get from Juneau International Airport to downtown Juneau?

The most reliable way to reach downtown Juneau from Juneau International Airport (JNU) is by shuttle van or taxi, as there is no rideshare service or public bus route directly serving the airport. Several local shuttle companies offer shared or private transfers - pre-booking is recommended. The drive takes approximately 10-15 minutes.

Do I need a car to get around Juneau, Alaska?

No, a car is not necessary in downtown Juneau. The city center is walkable, and local buses serve major areas. For cruise port access, walking or shuttles work well. However, a car is useful for exploring outer attractions like Mendenhall Glacier or Eagle Beach. Rental cars should be reserved in advance, especially in summer.

Is Juneau accessible year-round, and what’s the rainy season like?

Yes, Juneau is accessible year-round via plane or ferry. It experiences a maritime climate with frequent rain from October through April, peaking in fall. Summers are milder and drier, ideal for tourism. Always pack waterproof layers regardless of season. The city remains fully operational during wet months, with indoor attractions widely available.

Can I visit Mendenhall Glacier independently, and is there an entrance fee?

Yes, you can visit Mendenhall Glacier independently via a 13-mile scenic drive from downtown Juneau. The U.S. Forest Service operates the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center, which is free to enter and open seasonally (typically May–September). Trails and viewpoints are accessible year-round, though winter visitors should check road and trail conditions in advance.
