The Glacier Gardens are amazing and so beautiful! To see the beautiful flowers arranged on top of upside-down trees is such a unique experience, and the owners are true creatives whose passion for horticulture are evident throughout. You will take a tram up the mountainside with a very knowledgeable guide who will point out different plants and berries as well as provide interesting history of the gardens. At the top, you are rewarded with a gorgeous view. We loved every minute of this visit and would recommend it to anyone.

Beautiful place … a true labor of love as the owner has to transplant the plants into the greenhouse every winter and replant them every spring. The upside down trees are especially imaginative. Your guide takes you in a cart through the forest providing nature education along the way. The view at the top is spectacular. Sone of the plants are not native to the area and the same as what we grow at home in Alabama, but overall it was a lovely experience.

Overpriced, but nice. In theory, I can see why the maintenance of the park is costly so that's why they have such expensive tickets. But as a visitor, it is way overpriced given you just go on one trail through the park and stop go take photos at a viewpoint. I'd say it's not worth the money per person, probably a skip since you only get a small glimpse.

Our visit to Glacier Gardens was part of our ship's Juneau excursion package. Once we arrived, my wife and boarded a golf cart while a guide explained the features of the Garden as we drove up several hundred feet. One of the more interesting features are the reversed trees, where the trunk was in the ground and the roots were on top. This was performed by the owner of the Garden and provided some unusual views. At the top of the mountain, we were able to see the Juneau airport. Of more interest were the flying bald eagles. I missed my chance to get a photo of an eagle up close.

This was the first part of a cruise excursion, which also including Mendelhall Glacier. It's a bit of a hodgepodge - partly driving through the forest up a steep hill with some commentary, partly walking through a small landscaped garden, and partly stopping at a viewpoint over Juneau - but it was fun. The view over the Juneau and the valley extending to the north from Juneau was quite spectacular, and was the highlight for me.

We had no idea what to expect for this tour on our Alaskan cruise. It was beyond beautiful. The gardens are a work of art and lots of hard work at that. It rained our entire time in Juneau but we didn’t let that stop our exploring. The flower towers are amazing and the Tram tour up the hill is beautiful as you see waterfalls and so many trees in the misty fog and views of the airport and water from the lookout stop. We enjoyed our time here and the hot cocoa with cookie as a treat. It was a photographers paradise!

This is a nice place, however is is really nothing more than a ride up a mountain thru a forest in a passenger mover. The driver Bill was entertaining but a lot of lore along the way. If you have nothing else to do, this is ok
