Ferry between Juneau and Skagway, Alaska

Costs (I spent):
Transportation: $50 for ferry ride itself
Food: $8 for a pizza on board.

This ferry takes about 6 hours to reach Skagway. There is opportunity to see Humpback Whales, porpuses, and Orcas. The mountains north of Juneau get even taller and more spectacular. Also, the ocean becomes increasingly fed by glacial streams and rivers and has a vibrant blue-green colour to it. Approaching Skagway the mountains close in on the boat until there is no more ocean.
Food is available on board from the cafeteria.
