Description

Experience Juneau beyond the waterfront on the Eat, Sip, Explore Juneau Jeep Tour, a small-group shore excursion that blends scenic backcountry driving, local flavors, and relaxed exploration into one memorable outing. Perfect for cruise visitors who want to see more of Alaska’s capital without rushing, this guided jeep tour offers an easy escape from downtown crowds while keeping you comfortably on schedule.

Over approximately four hours, you’ll travel by rugged open-air jeep with a knowledgeable local guide, venturing into forested roads, coastal viewpoints, and lesser-visited areas that showcase Juneau’s dramatic landscapes. Along the way, your guide shares stories about the region’s history, wildlife, and everyday life, adding depth and context to each scenic stop. Photo opportunities are frequent, with time built in to enjoy the views rather than simply pass through them.

The “eat” and “sip” portions of the tour are just as memorable as the scenery. A highlight is a relaxed meal stop featuring thoughtfully prepared Alaskan cuisine at a popular local spot, often paired with craft beverages or non-alcoholic options. It’s a chance to slow down, refuel, and take in harbor or mountain views while learning more about Juneau’s growing food scene.

This experience is ideal for couples, friends, and adventurous travelers who prefer a personalized alternative to large bus tours. No off-road driving experience is required, and the pace remains comfortable throughout. Dressing in layers and wearing sturdy shoes is recommended due to changing weather conditions.

For a shore excursion that combines scenery, storytelling, and local flavor, Eat, Sip, Explore Juneau Jeep Tour offers a distinctly Alaskan way to spend your day in Juneau. Space is limited, so advance booking is recommended.
