You've already booked your helicopter, sightseeing, or outdoor adventure in Juneau; now, how about a great introduction to Alaska's capital or a fond farewell with a ride on the Juneau's Goldbelt Tram? Buy in advance through Holland America Line to avoid the ticketing lines.
Enjoy an exhilarating tramway ride through the Alaska rain forest up Mount Roberts to 1,800 feet above Juneau. Take in the beautiful views with the Chilkat Mountains to the north, Stephens Passage to the south, Douglas Island to the west and, in the east, Silver Bow Basin, where gold was discovered in 1880. Watch for wildlife and birds on your way to the bear-viewing platforms.
Visit Goldbelt Gifts & Gallery in the Mountain House. This is not just a gift shop -- it's an educational experience because you can watch local artisans crafting traditional objects. The store carries everything from comfortable, affordable clothing and charming souvenirs to exquisite crystal and museum-quality handcrafted Native artworks, both traditional and modern.
Stop in the gallery for the finest traditional weaving, carving, and Native art prints.
Enjoy the award-winning film, Seeing Daylight on the history and culture of the Lingit people. Dine with a view at the Timberline Bar & Grill on fresh seafood (at your own expense).
Notes:
Children 2 years of age and younger participate free of charge. There is no risk to purchasing tickets before the call at Juneau, as a full refund is given for any unused tickets; however, you must see the Shore Excursions team on board the ship before the end of the day to process the refund.
