Absolutely! The tour time has been scheduled to allow for some quick shopping at the retail destinations. We even provide you with a shopping bag to take back your tasty goodies.

Juneau is located in the beautiful Tongass National Forest, which is the largest temperate rainforest in the world. We tend to get quite a bit of rain. This is what makes Juneau and Southeast Alaska so beautiful. Locals refer to the rain as “liquid sunshine.” We encourage guests to wear a lightweight rain jacket because rain or shine, we will dine!

All food, wine pairing, and beer tasting are included. Each tour participant is given a shopping bag with tour information, recipes, and coupons for shopping.

Each tour is designed to provide enough food for a hearty lunch, yet not leave participants so full that they cannot enjoy the rest of their visit in Juneau.

Each cruise line has different rules and regulations about bringing food onboard. Any open containers, agricultural products, and items that are not pre-packaged are generally not allowed. We recommend that you check with your ship for customs policies.

This was a great tour and our guide was fantastic. We got samples at some of Juneau's best eateries and knew which ones we had to go back too for a meal. We also learned a lot about the Juneau food production ecosystem and had a fun little history lesson in there. We did this on our first full day in Juneau, and it really set us up for a great time with a baseline level of knowledge of what to do around town.

Food and drinks were amazing as well as a great tour guide!! We have taken this excursion before and loved it. We started at Tracy's King Crab Shack (King Crab bisque and crab cake), then onto Taste of Alaska (Smoked salmon dip, caviar, kelp salsa & chips and finished up with Spruce tip treats), next was Deckhand Dave's (Famous rock fish tacos and local beer), did shopping at Harbor Tea & Spice (Ice Cave Blue herbal tea and cookies), our final stop was Crystal Saloon (Halibut ceviche and a Denali Blueberry Mojito) and we were given a bag of peanut brittle from the Alaska Fudge Company. We purchased items from Tea & Spice and the Taste of Alaska and they were able to ship them home to us. Definitely a great way to experience the food and drinks during your vacation.
