Love the gardens strongly dislike the tour guide

Whenever I visit Juneau with friends I love showing them this beautiful garden created by a local family. The famous upside-down trees and plants are a must see. On this recent trip, I brought my in-laws who are gardeners. I was extremely disappointed with the...More

End of season, still interesting

Arriving in Juneau by cruise ship means you have a brief time to explore the area. This place is easily accessible by bus - have the right cash ready. Some of the cultivated plants were past their best but the golf cart trip through the...More

Delightfully combines natural and cultivated gardens

One of the most memorable experiences on our Alaska adventure was the precipitous bus ride from the carefully tailored garden to the Tongass Natural Forest. We entered the forest on a rainy day, and though we got a bit damp, we certainly had an authentic...More

Not an activity for a chilly rainy day

A little tour for the tour van driver to find and enter -- we passed it up and then he scraped something as we entered. Later heard he may have entered the wrong entrance. It was a chilly drizzly day and it was a bit...More

A unique experience which includes the eagle webcam

The Bohay's opened Glacier Gardens Rainforest Adventure in 1998 after years of rehabilitating a storm damaged stream that runs through their 50 acres of property. Glacier Rainforest Adventure is a unique botanical garden. Enjoy the garden.

Nice but overpriced

We booked this tour - which included the Mendenhall Glacier - via our cruiseship, Royal Caribbean Explorer of the Seas. The descriptions led us to believe that the garden itself was much larger and the 'tour' would be longer. Both were exaggerated and embellished to...More

I'm not exactly a plant person, but I enjoyed learning about and seeing all the flowers and trees. Cody was very informative and funny as he led us up the tramway. It is such a great little stop on a wonderfully sunny day. The view...More
