Nestled between towering mountains and the sparkling waters of the Inside Passage, Juneau captivates visitors as Alaska's capital city. This wilderness metropolis offers an irresistible blend of breathtaking natural wonders, abundant wildlife, and rich cultural heritage.
As your ship glides into port, you'll immediately understand what makes Juneau special - this remarkable capital is completely cut off from the mainland road system, accessible only by air or sea, creating a true Alaskan frontier experience.
