I’m Allan, and have had the pleasure of calling Juneau home since 2016. Although I grew up in California and Oklahoma as a kid, my parents instilled in me a deep love of travel. That passion has taken me to many states and a few homes, but settling in Juneau feels like the perfect fit, and it's where I live with my wife and daughter. My wife’s family actually has deep roots here — they’re a third-generation Juneau family. Last year, I decided to pursue guiding full time. Previously, I worked as a city ambassador and educator. On my scenic road tours, I love sharing the rich history and beauty of Juneau: from its indigenous roots and mining town origins to its role as Alaska’s capital and its incredible wildlife. Let's explore Alaska together!

Overview of your Juneau tour

Enjoy the intimacy of just your group, up to 5 (maybe 6 - read further), on a private scenic tour of Juneau in a luxury Grand Highlander. Tour has both unguided and guided parts. First, the unguided part. All will be dropped 1/4 mile from the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center (VC). ALL MUST WALK 0.25 MILE ON FLAT SIDEWALK THERE, AND 0.25 MILE BACK TO DROPOFF. No split parties (nobody remains with guide). We will agree on time to be spent there (between 1 and 2 hours), depending on whether some want to walk to Nugget Falls. I will also give you entry fees. Next, the guided part. After pickup from the spot near the VC, we will head to the Shrine of St. Therese and DIPAC salmon hatchery. More beauty and knowledge to soak up! Time permitting, we will explore more. * Start times are 9am and 2pm (flexible). * If your group has 6, I may be able to take them, no extra charge. I have 6 passenger belts. Look at the third row in the above photos of my SUV - if 3 people can fit comfortably, I can take 6 total.
