• 5Awesome excursion

  Very comfortable boat ride with an informative guide, who was as excited as us when we saw orcas. Loved our time with the bears- wished it was longer. A nice small sized group there, so was great viewing for everyone from the platform. We scored bigtime because as well as seeing 7 black bears and the 3 orcas we saw a humpback whale, a deer, a mink, harbour seals and sealions. This experience was the highlight of our cruise.

• 5Amazing trip.

  It’s was an amazing trip we saw so much wildlife. We saw orca, seals, sea lions, and humpback whales on the boat ride there. Then at the salmon hatchery we saw so many bears catching and eating salmon.

• 5Bear Encounter

  Wow what an amazing experience to do in Ketchikan! This tour took us out to a salmon breeding farm and right along side of the farm was some huge black bears having a great time catching salmon in the river. Just incredible to see these beautiful animals in a natural environment doing their thing. A must see tour to do!

• 5Absolutely brilliant !!

  From the knowledgeable Lori who drove us from the main port out to Neets Bay to Nate the very capable skipper of our vessel; the comfortable Miss Allison the trip was brilliant. Charlotte our guide filled us with amazing facts about the wildlife, local area, indigenous tales she was so exuberant and patient with some guests not wanting to listen. The trip certainly met my expectations with close up encounters with bears and Stellar Sea Lions. Sightings of Bald Eagles and Humpback Whales - it was brilliant. Thank you all very much ❤️

About Ketchikan

Ketchikan, in the Alaska Panhandle, is a rainy fishing town of stilted boardwalks and totem poles, set among the forests and fjords of the Inside Passage.

Ketchikan clings to the shore of Revillagigedo Island in Southeast Alaska, squeezed between steep forested hills and the water of the Inside Passage. Houses and boardwalks stand on stilts above Ketchikan Creek, where Creek Street, a lane of old buildings on pilings, once formed the red-light district. The town calls itself the salmon capital of the world, and the creek fills with spawning salmon in late summer.

Top-ranked sights in Ketchikan: Tongass National Forest, Creek Street, Saxman Native Village.
