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 family and friends, up to 5 (maybe 6 - read further), on a private sightseeing tour of Juneau. See the DIPAC salmon hatchery, the Mendenhall Glacier from a lookout, Shrine of St Therese, and more! Wildlife include salmon, seals, eagles and more rarely, bears and humpbacks. Ride in a luxury Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid, with mid-row captain seats and an expansive moonroof for spotting soaring eagles. Take comfort in a heated seat (if temps are too cool), and charge your phone while relaxing in style. * If your group has six, I may take them, no extra charge. Look at the third row of my SUV in the above photo collection - I can take six if three can fit there. Just let me know if so. * Start: 9am and 2pm daily (flexible) Tour Highlight: DIPAC hatchery See up close Juneau's salmon species. On June 21 the salmon ladder - up which spawning adults must climb - is opened. While the ladder is closed prior to that, the hatchery's aquarium, touch pools and gift shop are open.

We had a few hours before heading to the airport, so we booked this tour. It was excellent!! The Salmon Hatchery was a incredible to see, and we loved seeing the other beautiful spots on this tour. Allen is very knowledgeable about the area and shared a lot of interesting information. Highly recommend!

Allen was fabulous! A true family man that has a deep love for Alaska! He took our family to the Salmon Hatchery, Whale Statue, Mendenhall Glacier distance viewing and photo op, the site of the old collapsed gold mine, and a drive thru the historic downtown. Although he’s only been giving tours for a year, he’s a true pro! We were in town on a port visit from the Royal Princess Cruise. Also he had snacks, waters, and great binoculars to share too.
