Quite a good trip Mary good, limited wildlife but maybe time of year.We all quite enjoyed it and informative
Sharon, was prompt, very nice and courteous. While we understand wildlife sightings are uncontrollable, we were expecting a little more educational information about the area, the culture and such. Especially from a native of the area. It was still a good day, but left us wanting more.
Thank you for the review. Yes as mentioned upon your initial booking we can never guarantee what the wildlife will be doing in their natural environment. I would ask that you remove the comment and content in reference to our guide being a local “native” Indigenous person. It could be misinterpreted and taken in the wrong context. We always appreciate reviews but please let it have merit and give us examples of what we can do better. Owner, Kevin Johnson
Mary was a wonderful guide. She was welcoming, our pick up was great and the information she provided was great.
Gunalcheesh! Yes she is and thank you for the wonderful review!
It was a great tour. Our guide was on time to pick us up. She was very knowledgeable, lives in the area. She was able to keep all of us engaged. Our group of 9 ages 10-73. I would recommend. Thank you.

Great stuff! Thank you for the wonderful review!
I am a local. I have lived in Ketchikan for 30 years and have heard lots about native culture, but when our tour guide Caroline talked about the totem poles and the stories around them, this was the first time I finally UNDERSTOOD the history around them, what they meant, the purpose they served. Great tour! Friendly guide! Perfect introduction to native culture as it was truly lived in Southeast Alaska.
Thank you for recoginizing our expertise and appreciating our commiment to sharing cultural tourism. Caroline is life long community member and we greatly appreciate her knowledge.
Ketchikan Native Tours was an awesome experience! We had the most wonderful tour guide, Caroline, who was knowledgeable, funny, and so sweet. She went out of her way to take us places we wanted to see in addition to the wonderful sights she already had planned. We saw wildlife, the wonders of the Tongass National Forest, and learned about the indigenous peoples and history of the totems. It was rainy, so Caroline made sure to recommend proper footwear, had towels, and water for us to drink since the van was heated to keep us warm. Do yourself a favor and take a tour with this company. You won't be disappointed.
Thank you for the wonderful review and we appreciate your recognition of Caroline! She works hard for her guest and is a true ambassador of our beautiful community.
not a tour!!!!...driver (supposedly tour guide) DID NOT shows us any of the sights offered in the package. She mentioned she was sub'd by Viator. 3 youngers in my family and all she talked about was making her salmon preserves and using cedar branches to keep critters off of her property. Not on the tour package, she took us to see totem poles. not worth the 750 for a boring drive around

Jamie was great. She gave us all kinds of info on Ketchikan and pointed out many highlights. She gave us all kinds of options so we could choose our priorities. Just wish the ship stayed in port longer. Loved that there was a bag of things to entertain the kids during the drive.
Awesome! Thank you for the positive review!
Fun and informative tour through Ketchikan. Our guide Mary was excellent in sharing her knowledge of the area and helped us to see eagles, bear and whales along the way. This was a great tour for our family.
Awesome! We will pass on the kind words to our guide! Thank You!
