Highlights
This tour is designed for active and adventurous cruise passengers who are looking for an Alaskan excursion that is off the beaten path and away from the crowds. We’ll depart Icy Strait Point and drive through the Alaska Native Tlingit village of Hoonah before merging onto old logging roads that will take us to a remote river for fishing (spin or fly fishing available). During the car ride and along the river it is common to spot wildlife- the island has more brown bears per square mile than almost anywhere else on the planet! *Groups of more than 6 can be accommodated, please contact us to inquire about booking.

About Hoonah
Hoonah is a Tlingit community on Icy Strait in south-east Alaska, with whale-rich waters, totem poles, brown bears and the forests of Chichagof Island.
Hoonah lies on the north-east shore of Chichagof Island in the Alexander Archipelago, on Icy Strait, roughly 60 kilometres west of Juneau across the water. The Huna Tlingit, who left their homeland in Glacier Bay when the ice advanced, settled here, and it is still a largely Tlingit town, with a small harbour and a historic salmon cannery just outside town. Totem poles, dance and story are part of the community's life.
