This was such a great experience. Our guide, Jason, was so generous with his time and knowledge. He let the tour go at our pace laying out what was ahead for us so we knew how much time we wanted to spend at each location. He tried his best to get us wildlife experiences. We were really thrilled with the tour and highly recommend it.
We are happy you were able to relax and enjoy Jason’s tour, we try our best to make it simple and relaxing while you get to see the best of Ketchikan. Thank you
Wonderful way to see Ketchikan like a local. We learned a lot about the town’s history and wildlife. Saw bears, deer, eagles and more. Great tour!
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed everything and the wildlife even cooperated😁
James did an excellent job showing our family around Ketchikan. His knowledge and experience really added to the experience. Thank you!
Great! Thank you , I’m happy you enjoyed yourselves! We pride ourselves on our local knowledge
Rick was a polite and informative guide. Unfortunately we did not see any wildlife and only were exposed to history of the totem poles. Would be better to schedule this during the salmon runs.
I wish we could see the wildlife always, but they are the boss. Sorry about our 4 legged friends hiding out☹️
Rick did a fantastic job with our tour, going above and beyond our expectations! He was extremely knowledgeable and personable. We were able to see a bear and eagles; he knew all of the secret spots to look for them. He also took us to several very scenic spots. I would definitely recommend this tour!
Awesome! we are so glad you enjoyed everything Rick showed you and hope you got special memories!! Thank you 👍
Excellent tour. We were traveling with 2 toddlers and Denisse was very flexible and patient. She taught us a lot about the original cultures.
Thank you! she is our expert on the culture aspects as we all are, but her growing up around the culture gives her the upper hand for sure😊
Tour was great!! Jason provided so much information and facts on Ketchikan. We were never rushed on our stops and he extended the length of our tour when roadworks held us up. Highly recommend.
Yes, that day was miserable with the road work and I’m glad he was able to extend your tour to make up for it. He’s great!!
Town is small, and the DT is built for cruise ship tourists. Still, fun, quaint, & plenty of souvenirs. Look for Annabelle’s for fun bar/food experience. Rick was our guide, and he went above and beyond to make sure we saw the best and the unique side of Ketchikan. Be sure to ask for him.
Thank you! unfortunately downtown is mainly jewelry stores but tons of stuff to see when you get out and explore with us like you smart people did😁 I’ll pass this along to Rick he’ll definitely appreciate it as I !
It was easy to locate the driver once off the cruise ship. We drove around town but did not see any beers but possibly because we went during shoulder season plus pouring rain the day of. Driver was very informative and had answers to everything. Driver was president to find the bears which we really appreciate.
We do make pick up as easy as possible, in front of our guest ships in town. It’s early but the bears are definitely out , eating grass , roots and of course garbage if you leave it out. Lots of rain here in Ketchikan but it is nice and dry in the van where we can see lot’s. Thank you 😊
This tour was a complete disappointment. We have been on many Viator tours and this was one we wished we didn't book. I would not recommend spending your money on this tour. Bernie was our tour guide she was doing her best to show us Ketchikan , We basically went for a three hour car ride and saw pretty much nothing . We were shown where a bear was yesterday.
Sorry for your disappointment. We cannot control wildlife and I’m sorry you didnt enjoy the views of what Ketchikan has to offer or the stories and character.
