Got our tour narrowed down to two in Juneau.

It will be on August 30. Anyone have any opinions and/or experiences (good or bad) on the two tours:

1) Orka Point Lodge & Whale Watch ($135 pp)

2) Taku Wilderness Lodge & Glacier Flight Seeing ($219)

Any info would be appreciated.

One of the highlights of all of my travels was the Taku trip. My husband completely agrees. We had an absolutely wonderful trip. Breathtaking views, great food. I even got to fly in the cockpit on the trip back!

My wife and I took the Orca point Whale Watching/Lodge Tour. We had a great time. The guarentee sightings and to this point have never had to pay out. We got to see Humpback Whales, Steller Seals, Dahl Dolphins, and Bald Eagles. The food at the lodge was also excellent. We would gladly do it again.

I agree completely with JoeSlotz. Our family took the Orca Point Whale Watching/Lodge Tour and both adults and children loved it. I highly recommend it.

Took the Taku Lodge excursion last July...WONDERFUL. I got to sit in the cockpit of the plane!! Did the Orca Point Whale Watching two years ago and it was wonderful, also. These are two totally different excursions...equally as great as the other....but two different experiences...exciting wildlife cruise or breathtaking wilderness scenery. Tough choice....but you can't go wrong with either one.
