Through powerful, eloquent and often funny short stories your guide will weave a literary fabric to wrap yourself in under the cool summer rain. Every corner holds bits of history, and you will find a bit of what life is like in the Last Frontier. Overview If you are looking to learn more about the culture and history of Juneau and Alaska, this is the tour for you. Starting near the Mt. Robert’s tram, we walk at a casual pace along the sea walk and into the depths of downtown. We break away from the typical tourist loop and go only where the locals wander. This tour is yours so we can keep things flexible and do what you want. Some common places to visit is the Governor’s Mansion, Capital Building, Russian Orthodox Church, and many other gems you probably haven’t thought of. We like to end it with a beer tasting at a local pub, such as the Alaskan Hotel & Bar to relax and tell more stories. However, everything is flexible and your guide can recommend other fun hangouts.
