Outstanding experience in all aspects of the excursion. Flight was fun got great views of additional glaciers. Food and staff were excellent. It is a nice way to get away from the crowds and enjoy the beauty of Alaska.

Great excursion, floatplane was just steps from the cruise ship. Flight was smooth and scenery was fantastic. Lunch at the lodge was great! Saw a black bear at the lodge.

Our party of 6 loved this excursion (ages 5-75). Flying in the seaplane was an amazing experience. We had plenty of time to do the two trails and relax to enjoy the view of the glacier. The food was good. The staff was friendly. Kids enjoyed picking berries. Would highly recommend this excursion.

When visiting Juneau this is a must trip to do. Seaplane is a unique experience and the only way to view the Glaciers below. Taku Lodge was also an experience to savour with a lovely lunch and beautiful surroundings. We were lucky to be visiting when a black bear decided to visit too.

This was one of the highlights of our Alaskan cruise. The scenery should only be experienced from the float plane. Taku Lodge itself is beautiful and historical in itself along with a delicious classic Alaskan meal. The departure personnel, the pilots and the Lodge workers all added to the enjoyment of this excursion.

Nothing but superlatives for this fabulous three hours. Worth every penny. The flights to and from the Taku Glacier Lodge were comfortable, the salmon dinner at the lodge was superb, and of course the scenery was beyond magnificent. The float plane takeoffs and landings were remarkably smooth. Alaska at its best! Of course, always a risk of cancellation due to weather. That's Alaska, too!

We have been on many excursions all over the world but this one was by far our favorite. It had adventure, beautiful scenery, delicious food and superb float plane pilots. Would definitely refer this to our friends and given the opportunity would do it again.

It was a very easy walk from where the ship docked and was the highlight of our Alaskan Cruise!
I cannot say enough good things about the flight or the time we spent at Taku Lodge. You get exactly what they say you are getting. If you are considering this excursion- do it! Phenomenal!

This was an amazing adventure. Hank, our pilot, was friendly and very knowledgeable. He graced us with a smooth ride with a beautiful view! The staff at the Taku Lodge were informational as well as so sweet! The salmon dinner was amazing!

Absolutely loved this trip. The plane ride could have been 3x as long to satiate my curiosity and loved the smooth flight and narration on the headphones. The lodge was quaint and cozy and meal delicious. The bear visit was a bonus and hiking trails beautiful. Do yourself a favor and book this trip - it was my favorite event from our 2 week visit to the state.

This is a must do when you go to Alaska. Very professional and friendly staff. Everything is taken care of. The pilot was exceptional and the meal was lovely. The only thing I would say is that the time was too short at the lodge. But definately well worth the money and a fantastic experience.

We all agreed that this was the highlight of our Alaska trip. Yes, it's on the expensive side but it will be an unforgettable experience.

Loved the floatplane experience! My friend is a very nervous flyer and almost backed out, but afterwards admitted how thankful she was to have done it and that the flight was so smooth and better than she expected. The views are amazing! The pilots and lodge personnel were all friendly and welcoming. The meal was great too! Highly recommend this unique experience.

The salmon bake was cancelled for us (not enough passengers) but we were able to schedule the glacier flight. This was such a scenic experience, it was the best way to see the beauty of Alaska and the grandness of the glaciers. This was by far my husbands favorite excursion. I would definitely recommend.

We went on an alternate excursion and it was a fantastic experience and the whole activity was well planned and organised.

First of all, we were very lucky with the weather our whole time in Alaska. With that said, our Taku Glacier excursion was fabulous. Amazing scenery, delicious meal and an incredible staff that are informative and pleasant. Would recommend this tour to everyone in the area. Would do it again next time we are in Alaska.

Unbelievable views from the plane and lodge! The salmon is excellent! This is a must do!
Jul 2018 - Marie And Jay W.
The Taku Glacier Lodge was a lovely destination, and the food was delicious. However, the real highlight of this excursion is the float plane flight to the lodge and returning to Juneau. We enjoyed every minute of it and only wish it could have been longer. With the flight, you get to witness the jaw-dropping natural beauty of Alaska. Gorgeous!

This tour was awesome. Excellent view and narration of the glaciers from the plane. Time at the lodge was fun as you can view a glacier from the front door and take a walk around the property with one of the staff members. The food was good and we got to see a black bear running around the property. An excellent way to do something fantastic during your time in port or if you are in Juneau for other reasons.

Amazing excursion. Beautiful views, delicious food and wonderful staff.
May 2018 - Thomas N.
Great experience! Very professional service, food at the lodge was well prepared and flavorful. Added bonus was viewing black bears up close as they policed grill post-cooking. Would recommend to anyone!

We spent hours pouring over excursions for our cruise to Alaska. As soon as we saw the Juneau Taku Glacier Lodge Flight & Feast and read all the amazing Trip Adviser Reviews we know this was the excursion of a life time. It truly was one of the most memorable experiences we have ever had and will treasure the memories of this day always. From the flight over the glaciers to the amazing salmon feast at Taku lodge and all the staff from the pilot to the cooks we can't say enough to express our gratitude for your professionalism and love for what you do and share with us. Awesome experience !!!!

The floatplane over the Juneau ice field provided spectacular views, but the best part was the Taku Lodge! It truly was a feast - the salmon was delicious (and salmon is not usually one of my favorites), and the herbed biscuits were to-die-for. The lodge was peaceful and secluded, and also had awesome scenery. The bear in the grill right outside the window as we ate made the ambience even more unique. This excursion was a definite highlight of our trip!
Jun 2017 - Gretchen R.
This was by far my favorite excursion on our Alaskan Cruise. We had an amazing time. The scenery was spectacular, the food was great, & we did see 2 bears and 2 cubs on our visit!
