Getting ashore

Ships dock at the main pier. The walk into town is short or needs a short taxi. Check your berth. Taxis queue at the exit.

Watch-outs

Confirm the exact pier. The walk may be in the sun. Do not leave valuables. Traffic can be busy near the port.

Getting into town

From the pier, walk or take a short taxi into the centre. The streets are mostly flat. Public transport may be available.

Taxis & ride apps

Taxis queue at the pier. Ride apps may be limited. Use the official queue. Agree the fare if not posted.

What to do nearby

The centre has shops and sights a short walk away. Keep the loop reasonable. Some areas have steps or cobbles.

Going further

Further sights need a taxi. The drive can take time. Book a return carefully.

Food & shopping

Local places serve food and shops are nearby. Prices are about standard tourist levels.

Opening times & connectivity

Shops open mid-morning. Mobile coverage is good. Some cafés have Wi-Fi. Use the currency link.

Accessibility & mobility

The visitor center can be reached from its parking lots by stairs, an elevator or a ramp. That does not describe the 1.5-mile walk from the bus stop, or the gangway. Ask the ship. Downtown streets are steep and wet. Book a vehicle that can take a wheelchair if the glacier is the plan.
