Imagine when the region's first people, the Tlingit Indians, traversed the waters of southeast Alaska in hand-carved canoes. On this tour, you'll re-enact the experience, being among the select few to travel by canoe and venture within a safe distance of the majestic Mendenhall Glacier. Your trip begins with a scenic motor coach ride to the beautiful Mendenhall Lake. Once there, you'll gear up, board your authentic Alaskan Native-style canoe and take off on your unforgettable adventure. You'll paddle across the serene waters of the lake, navigating past floating icebergs. Marvel at the spectacular views of the glacier and towering peaks as you float past the shoreline, then experience the thrill of skirting the base of beautiful and roaring Nugget Falls. Go ashore here for a snack. At the end of this unprecedented journey, reboard your motorcoach for the return trip to your ship.
