I have done a lot of work lining up excursions for myself, DH and a small group of friends. We are using Orca Enterprises (Captain Larry) for whale watching in Juneau.

In Ketchikan, we are doing a seaplane Misty Fjords tour with Island Wings in the afternoon and a combination Saxman Village and Totem Bite Park with Sourdough Tours.

In Skagway, we are renting a car and driving up to White Pass and then into the Yukon. From what I've read, this is a VERY easy drive - no way to get lost - and you see much of the same as if you are on the train. We plan to use the rest of the day (we are docked until 8 PM, I think) for walking around the city.

I checked these tours against Princess' and they are pretty much the same, but of course cheaper (especially in Skagway). The tour companies I have chosen have gotten good reviews from posters on this board and on another board.
