Alaska Forest & Feast
A Small Group Nature & Culinary Experience in Juneau, Alaska
3.5 Hours · Maximum 10 Guests · Transportation & Meal Included
There is another side of Alaska waiting beyond the busy docks and crowded attractions.
A quieter Alaska.
One where towering forests hold stories generations old. Where the scent of spruce hangs in the cool coastal air. Where mountains rise from the sea, waves meet the shoreline, and you finally have time to take it all in.
Alaska Forest & Feast is an intimate experience for travelers who want to slow down and discover the heart of Southeast Alaska.
Most visitors come to Alaska to see it. We invite you to experience it.
With a small group of no more than 10 guests, you'll leave the crowds behind and spend a few unforgettable hours exploring the landscapes, stories, traditions, and flavors that make this place so extraordinary.
There is nowhere to rush. Nothing to check off a list. Just time to wander, listen, taste, breathe, and experience Alaska in a way most visitors never do.
This is Alaska beyond the postcard.
Wild. Welcoming. Delicious. Unforgettable.

Your Experience
Explore
-
Your journey begins as we leave downtown Juneau behind and follow the coastline into a landscape of mountains, ocean, waterfalls, and rainforest.
Along the way, we'll pause for beautiful views of the Mendenhall Glacier and surrounding mountains, but this isn't simply a scenic drive.
It's your introduction to the place we call home.
You'll hear stories, notice places you might otherwise pass by, and begin to understand what makes life in this corner of Alaska so unique.
There is plenty to see.
We simply don't believe you have to rush past it.
Wander
-
Step beneath towering Sitka spruce and hemlock trees in the Tongass National Forest and follow an easy trail through one of the world’s great temperate rainforests.
We’ll stop when something catches our attention. Maybe it’s a wild berry, a plant with a long history of traditional use, a story connected to the land, or simply a beautiful moment worth lingering in.
Eventually, the forest opens to the shoreline, where mountains, ocean, and trees meet. Here, you’ll have time to slow down, breathe, listen, and really take in where you are.
This isn’t a hike to conquer.
It’s a chance to experience the forest and coast at a different pace.
Feast

After exploring, we'll do what people have always done after a good adventure.
We'll eat.
Your experience concludes around the table with a meal inspired by the flavors of coastal Alaska, including locally sourced salmon chowder, a fresh seasonal salad, and ingredients connected to the abundance of this region.
Good food tastes even better after time outside.
We'll linger over lunch, share stories, and enjoy the easy conversation that tends to happen after a few hours exploring together.
By the time we return to Juneau, my hope is that you won't feel like you've simply taken another Alaska excursion.
You'll feel like you've spent a few hours here.
Really here.
Is Alaska Forest & Feast For You?
This experience was created for travelers who are curious about the places they visit.
People who would rather have a meaningful conversation than follow a flag through a crowd.
People who want to taste local food, hear local stories, wander through an extraordinary forest, and leave a little room in the day for something unexpected.
If you want to see as much as humanly possible in three hours, there are plenty of wonderful tours in Juneau that can help you do that.
If you'd rather experience a little less and feel a whole lot more, you'll fit right in here.
A Few Things to Know
-
Alaska Forest & Feast is intentionally small, with a maximum of 10 guests.
Keeping the group small gives us the freedom to move at an easy pace, have real conversations, stop when something interests us, and experience the forest without feeling like we're part of a crowd.
-
We'll walk approximately 1.5 miles at a comfortable pace.
The trail is natural, so you'll encounter tree roots and some uneven ground, but this is not designed to be a strenuous hike.
We stop often.
Nobody gets bonus points for finishing first.
-
Juneau weather likes to keep things interesting.
Layers, comfortable walking shoes, and a rain jacket are your best bet.
Don't let a little rain worry you. The rainforest is especially beautiful when everything is wet, green, and glistening.
Some of our best Alaska days come with a few raindrops.
-
There are lots of wonderful ways to see Juneau.
Forest & Feast was created for travelers who want to experience it differently.
The group is intentionally small. The pace is unhurried. We'll explore beautiful places, talk about the land and the people who call it home, notice things most visitors walk right past, and finish the experience together over a locally inspired meal.
You won't see everything Juneau has to offer.
-
Absolutely.
Alaska Forest & Feast was designed with cruise guests in mind. We meet just a short walk from the cruise docks and carefully plan each departure around ship schedules.
You enjoy Alaska.
We'll keep an eye on the clock.
