IMHO Glacier bay is the way to go.   It is absolutely spectacular and there are many glaciers to see.  The ship does hang around the Margerie Glacier the most amount of time.   One trip we went into the Johns Hopkins inlet and the other trip we didn't.  I hope you do.  Just added beauty.


My biggest "gripe" about Hubbard is getting there and back.   You'll leave the inside passage and can get some pretty rough seas (we did).   The scenery getting in and out of the inlet to Hubbard isn't as spectacular as Glacier Bay.  Don't get me wrong here...it's still quite beautiful.

The Hubbard glacier itself is larger and much more awsome than the glaciers in Glacier Bay I must say.  Awe inspiring.


We never got to Tracy Arm but for glacier viewing it's 3rd choice from all I've read.


And don't forget when in Juneau take a trip to Mendenhall glacier.  She's a beauty too and cheap/easy to get to.
