How it Works
Simple, Easy, and Stress-Free Juneau Tours
Juneau experiences around 230 days of rain each year
Did you know?
Precipitation levels in Juneau range from 55 inches at the airport to more than 90 inches downtown.
As part of the Tongass National Forest, the largest in the U.S., our lush landscapes thrive because of it.
Bring a raincoat and dress in layers so you can enjoy your adventure no matter the weather. We’re a rain or shine kind of town!
