Tendering in Juneau

[CruisingCoral]

I'm going to be on the 10 day Grand Princess cruise this summer to Alaska from San Francisco and we'll be tendering in Juneau since there will be four other ships in port with us-Island Princess, Explorer of the Seas, Celebrity Millennium, and the Silver Whisper. Does anyone know where the tender dock is? I've noticed that the Princess ship that normally does the 10 day to Alaska tenders so I'm just curious if anyone knows and if they have pics of it. Thanks!

I would bet if you ask this on the Alaska board, you will get a quick answer. EM

I didn't even think of that. Thank you for the suggestion!

Not Princess but we Tendered in Juneau last June on the Solstice here is a photo of ships docked and us tendered. You see 2 HAL and 1 Princess ship docked and the Solstice out in the middle.

Thank you for the picture! Did the tenders dock on the bottom right of the picture?

Taking a Ruby cruise to Alaska in May and just curious where that incredible picture was taken from.

My guess would be Mt Roberts -- you can see tram lines.

Exactly as Alaskanb said, this photo was taken from top of Mt. Roberts.

Thank you so much! I know they are redoing the docks to allow larger cruise ships to dock so I'm curious how that set up will go.

Juneau is very walkable, and the tender ride should be nice and short. The pic someone posted is the same scene I've seen when a ship tenders there.

I am so amazed when someone asks a question on cruise critic; the answers flow back; and sometimes they come with pictures. This thread is great; ask a question and get back several colorful answers. Thanks

I didn't realize that Juneau was ever a tender port....so, how would one know if their ship will be docking or not?

 

We are on Grand Princess, the Aug 29th sailing this year. So, in Juneau on Thursday, September 1.

 

 

Thanks,

It usually is reflected in your itinerary. Although rare it can get very congested on certain dates pushing some ships to anchor. :(

Here is a link to Juneau Cruise Ship Schedule http://claalaska.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Juneau-JNU-2016.pdf

 

Match the Birth Code with this list http://claalaska.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Berth-Codes-1.pdf

 

Then there is a map of the cruise port here http://cruiseportwiki.com/Juneau

 

I believe your cruise shows being docked at the same dock as the Princess Ship in the photo I posted earlier...but as Colo Cruiser mentioned earlier it should be listed on your itinerary.

You're very welcome, Glad I was able to provide some information for everyone.

 

I'm browsing the Princess Boards because we are interested in a Royal or Regal cruise next Fall/Winter, so I may have some questions of my own as we prepare to try Princess.

Thanks so much! I was just going to ask about the tender location, but here is the answer!

 

Thanks again:)
