Can you go to Mendenhall Glacier on your own?
Can you go to Mendenhall Glacier on your own? While many people go to Mendenhall Glacier with a tour group or on a shore excursion, you can also get to the glacier on your own. You can take a taxi from Juneau, drive to the glacier with a rental car, or take the city bus to Glacier Spur Road and walk the rest of the way (1.5 miles).
Can I take an Uber to Mendenhall Glacier?
They'll have to: Uber and Lyft aren't allowed at the Mendenhall Glacier Recreation Area. “The bottom line for us is people can't conduct a business in a national forest without asking first,” said Jessica Schalkowski, who manages special-use permits for the Tongass National Forest, including the glacier.
Is Juneau walkable from cruise ship?
