A number of tours were available but we just chose to go to the Salmon bake at Salmon Falls. It was a beautiful setting along a creek where salmon try to swim upstream and jump the falls to spawn. There was an old goldmine that was closed. We had a wonderful meal of wood fired grilled salmon(as much as we wanted) with a special sauce and other great entrees. To top it off we had fresh mountain blueberry cake (Yum).
We walked around the downtown area and spent some time in the infamous Red Dog Saloon. It was founded during Juneau's mining era, the Saloon has been in operation for decades. The Red Dog has been recognized by the Alaska Legislature for its longevity as the oldest man-made tourist attraction in Juneau. Personally, we think that it is highly over-rated.
