Tour privato : foresta pluviale, fauna selvatica, cascate, pali del totem...
Descrizione
Esplora Ketchikan con un tour privato progettato per tutte le età, dove la tua famiglia e i tuoi amici sono gli unici ospiti nel furgone turistico. Goditi comfort, flessibilità e un ritmo rilassato. Dandoti la libertà di concentrarti su ciò che ti interessa di più. Ogni tappa del nostro tour è scelta per il suo legame autentico con la foresta pluviale, la costa, la fauna selvatica e la storia di Ketchikan. Esplorerai luoghi modellati dalla natura, non creati per lo spettacolo, dandoti un chiaro senso di ciò che rende questo luogo speciale. Il nostro obiettivo è creare un'esperienza divertente, amichevole, autentica e senza script, come esplorare l'Alaska con un amico locale. Avvistamenti faunistici non sono mai garantiti. Quello che possiamo garantire è portarvi negli stessi bei posti che noi come gente del posto visitiamo che offrono le migliori possibilità di vedere la fauna selvatica.

We had an absolutely wonderful time on our tour! Bianca and Leanne were fabulous! We had a big family group with mixed ages, abilities, and interests, and the experience made everyone happy. They were very communicative, and it was very easy to connect with them. They catered to our expressed interests -- I asked for animals and native culture, and they totally delivered. We explored tide pools full of starfish, had eagles circle overhead, learned about totem poles (including talking to an artist making one), and saw both a humpback whale and a bear. They were very accommodating for the little ones in our group and also made sure to get us back into town on time for our next excursion. This tour was worth every penny (especially for a big group)! There is a lot to do in Ketchikan, but this should be high on the list.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that Bianca and Leanne provided a memorable experience for your family. It’s great to know they catered to your interests and ensured everyone, including the little ones, had a fantastic time. We hope to welcome you back to Ketchikan soon!
We booked the Wildlife, Watefalls and Totem Poles tour and we could not have been more pleased! The excursion was a bit pricey, but just having a private tour with just myself, wife and the guide was just perfect. Our guide was Leanne and she was just awesome. She tried to find us some bears, but they were not accommodating. She took us to a spot where there were at least 25-28 eagles in a tree! This was a great photo op for seeing eagles as they just perched in the tree and waited for fish to be tossed on the beach, then we watched as they flew down in hopes of getting fish. Along the way we saw otters and a black tailed dear. A stop to The Herring Bay Totem Park, where saw some Totem Poles and listening to Leanne tell the stories behind them was great. We also saw a Totem Pole that was in the carving process and was able to talk to Totem carver and ask questions about it. She took us to a waterfall for a few pictures, then we had to start heading back. As we were going back to town we got an added extra bonus as we were able to pull over in time to see a humpback whale do a bubble net feed!! So cool! We were truly blessed, our guide Leanne and this excursion was priceless!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the Wildlife, Waterfalls, and Totem Poles tour with Leanne. It’s great to know that the experience was memorable and that you had the opportunity to see such incredible wildlife and learn about the totem poles. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future!
Outstanding tour. Our guide, Hans, called onsite to meet, was super friendly and had extensive knowledge of the area having lived there for 15 yrs. Our journey took us to everything advertised - eagles, bear, bonus deer sighting, totems, sawmill and blacksmith shop and a trip to the shore to see some marine life. Highlight was the waterfall. Our group of 6 all have some level of hiking experience from moderate to very skilled. Since we were all wearing the appropriate gear Hans guided us up to get some beautiful photos and then safely back down. Highly recommemd!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your tour with Hans and that he was able to provide such an informative and friendly experience. It’s great to know that you were able to see all the advertised sights and enjoy the highlight of the waterfall. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future!
Bianca is just an amazing human! The visit to the tidal pool was such a simple pleasure with Bianca pointing out treasures I would have missed. Two eagles put on a spectacular performance that Bianca was able to capture on video. The hike was short but wonderful! Would definitely recommend!
Thank you so much — Bianca will love this. We’re glad the tidal pools, the eagles, and the short hike all made your visit special. We appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you again.
Leanne was an amazing guide with Emerald Forest Tours! She was knowledgeable, kind, and incredibly adaptable throughout our tour. She even took us through a part of the forest she doesn't normally visit, which made the experience feel unique and memorable. Along the way, she taught us so much about the forest and the local ecosystem, and it was clear how much she loves sharing her knowledge. What made the tour truly special was Leanne herself. She was warm, relatable, and connected with everyone in our group, regardless of age. Her enthusiasm and genuine kindness made the experience both fun and educational. She went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time, and our tour ended up being one of the highlights of our trip to Ketchikan. I highly recommend Emerald Forest Tours, and if you get Leanne as your guide, you're in for a fantastic experience!
Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback. We’re thrilled Leanne made your time in the forest such a highlight — her warmth, knowledge, and flexibility truly shine through. We’re grateful you chose to spend part of your trip with us.
Our tour with Bianca was wonderful. We have a 3 year old and a six year old, and Bianca did a great job tailoring our tour to their interest levels. We would highly recommend Bianca and the 3 hour private tour
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that Bianca was able to tailor the tour to your children’s interests and that you had a great experience. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
We had a private tour of Ketchikan for our family of 9. It was a great experience and we had beautiful weather. Our guide Bianca was great she was able to show us many different wildlife and give us a lot of cool information about this beautiful city. We saw eagles, whales, bears and seals and even caught some berries. We had plenty of time to do everything and had the option to be dropped off in downtown to see more things before our cruise left. Highly recommend and hope to come back again to explore more.
Thank you for the wonderful review — we’re so glad your family had such a great day. Bianca will be thrilled to hear you enjoyed the wildlife, the sunshine, and the pace of the tour. Seeing eagles, whales, bears, seals and finding berries is an unforgettable lineup.
Bianca was outstanding! She made our trip. She never gave up on us finding a bear and she did not disappoint. We actually named him Bruin to represent Boston. We loved all her knowledge and highly recommend!!! You will not be disappointed.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that Bianca made your trip memorable. We appreciate your kind words about her knowledge and dedication. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
We had such a wonderful time with our guide, Bianca! She was informative and so much fun. Thanks to her knowledge, we learned all about Ketchikan's history and thanks to her persistence we saw TWO BEAR CUBS!! We will definitely be calling her anytime we can return.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time with Bianca and that she was able to share Ketchikan’s history with you. Seeing the bear cubs must have been an unforgettable experience! We look forward to the opportunity to guide you again in the future.
Fabulous tour with Hans! He was so informative and a fun guide. We enjoyed the sawmill & totem park, and LOVED the short waterfall hike. We all enjoyed our time exploring and would absolutely take a tour with him again. Thank you!
Thank you so much 😊 it was great meeting you and everyone in the group and best wishes to you all!
