I cannot say enough about how great Becky and her Jeep are. She was always available and very responsive. The car was immaculate and she even gave us bottles of water and some candy. I would not hesitate to rent from her again. It was a great experience.

Literally, the only downside of renting this car from Shawn was that now my husband won’t shut up about wanting a jeep! 😂This car was impeccable and a fantastic way to tour Juno on your own terms! I would absolutely rent this car again from Shawn. It was our pleasure!

Excellent host and a great rental experience! Communication was prompt and helpful, and he provided great recommendations for places to visit. The car was conveniently located, making pickup and drop-off fast and easy. As a family of four coming off a cruise, we appreciated having the flexibility to explore on our own, and the provided car seats for our two children were a huge plus. Everything was seamless, and we would happily rent from him again. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience with renting a car from Becky. The car was super clean! The communication was awesome! She was very patient with us as it was our first time using Turo. It was great to have the freedom to drive around on our own. We saw whales at the Shrine of St. Therese, black bear and cubs on the road, and a porcupine up a tree at Mendenhall Glacier, along with eagles. Highly recommend!

At the top, you'll find hiking trails, a nature center, and a restaurant with breathtaking views of the Gastineau Channel and Juneau's downtown area. The sturdy suspension of your rental vehicle ensures a comfortable ride as you navigate the city's hilly terrain.

The hatchery's viewing windows and outdoor exhibits provide an up-close look at these iconic fish. After your visit, take advantage of your vehicle's all-terrain capabilities to explore some of the nearby coastal roads for scenic views.
