Meeting and Pickup
This is a private trip so we are happy to come to your accommodation before your trip, anywhere in town. If you are disembarking a ship at one of Juneau's Cruise Terminals, we ask that you make the short walk to the "Elizabeth Peratrovich Plaza".This is the official loading zone for our size of vehicle and is in the middle of the port area. The multi-story parking garage on the waterfront with the Juneau Library on top is on one end of the Plaza and it and the mural of Elizabeth Peratrovich can be seen from around the port. If you are coming to the AJ dock, we will pick you up directly.
