“Got a taxi on a whim coming back from the Mendenhall Glacier. We so happened to get Maria – thank god we did, because she made our day in Juneau! We were only expecting a ride back to the cruise ship and she went above and beyond with a little impromptu tour and gave us so much information about Juneau. She recommended a fabulous restaurant – which was also amazing. If you’re in Juneau, contact Maria! She is a blast!”

Here’s what one former customer had to say on Google:
“Was in Juneau on July 18, 2023, and there were no available passes through any of the tour buses to Mendenhall Glacier. I called all Juneau taxi services and the only person who answered was Andy with Juneau Taxi Tours. Andy said he could pick me and my adult children up at the dock when our cruised ship docked. He also guaranteed that him or one of his team would pick us up and return us to the ship. True to his word, Andy sent Awesome Ashley to pick us up at 3:30 p.m. which was the time we had agreed on during our telephone conversation. We saw the glacier but even more impressive was Nugget Falls (same location but about a 4-mile round trip walk from the glacier). Ashley came back and picked us up (we had plenty of time to tour Glacier and Nugget Falls) and we had her drop us off at the Red Dog Saloon. Round trip was a flat fee of $126.00 for the three of us (cheaper than it would have been on the Big Blue Bus). I did give Ashley a very generous tip since they were so reliable. I would highly recommend Juneau Taxi Tours!! As cost-effective as a bus and a lot more comfortable!”

We had the flexibility to call our driver when we were ready to be picked up. Clean vehicle! Would highly recommend!”
