Things to Do in Juneau, Alaska

Located just past the main strip area, this grocery is a great place to pick up healthy food and snacks. You can also find gifts and local specialties, such as smoked salmon, for much less than at tourist shops. Take a helicopter tour of southeast Alaska's breathtakingly beautiful glaciers, mountains, and ice fields.
