Rum Runner's Whale Watching & Wildlife Viewing Tour in Juneau Alaska
The wildlife found throughout Southeast Alaska is nothing short of spectacular. Humpback Whales, Bald Eagles and the endangered Stellar Sea Lion are always present to those who know how to find them. Killer Whale and Dahl Porpoise pods are frequent visitors to the inside passage along with harbor seals, sea otters, dolphins, leaping salmon and the occasional beach-roaming bear. These glacial fjords also provide shelter to numerous migrating seabirds.
The photo opportunities from a smaller, uncrowded, and less intrusive vessel are fantastic and not to be missed. Which ever of our excursions you choose it will be the highlight of your vacation. Because of the abundance wildlife in our area, we offer our exclusive 100% money back guarantee if we don't find you a whale on your tour!
Whales Passing By
In this amazing video from one of our whale watching tours we were floating in the North Pass as the whales passed us by.

Your Captain will take you to the closest Humpback Whales to observe and photograph. Then, as time permits, your boat will seek other wildlife in the area.

Captain Chris will keep you informed on the animals, their behavior, and the relationship to their environment. Our rates are listed below.
