Description

Launch from our downtown Ketchikan dock aboard your own Zodiac Boat, just a couple minutes away from the cruise docks. Follow your guide and explore the Inside Passage of Southeast Alaska. Most tours take in views of Historic Creek Street, the Totem Poles at Saxman Native Village, and cruise the Tongass Narrows searching for bald eagles, seals and sea lions and often humpback whales and sometimes migrating pods of Orca! Enjoy zipping across the water with the salty breeze on your face. Every tour pace and route varies, but most tours stop and raft up with the guide boat 3 or 4 times during the tour. Waterproof Bibs, Jackets, Boots, Gloves & Dry Bags provided for the adventure. This is a guided, self driving excursion on the water. Up to 4 guests may be in each vessel. If you are a couple you may be paired with another couple on the tour. We provide the opportunity for our groups to have up to 2 guests per boat to have time to drive on the tour if desired. Must be 21+ to drive.

Great time,...Book this trip!

My husband and I really had an amazing time. He loved driving the zodiac boat. FUN! Our guide, Lukas was so nice and very informative! He saw lots of facts about the wildlife and took us to see an eagle's nest that was home to a young eagle. We thoroughly enjoyed our time.

Zodiac boat tour

We had an excellent time on this excursion! Our guide Lukas was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience enjoyable for everyone. While we didn’t see as much wildlife as we had hoped, the beautiful scenery more than made up for it. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we would definitely recommend this excursion!

Overall a fun experience

Overall a great experience but truly it’s only meant for 2-3 people in the boat .the fourth person has to side on the side of the boat and it’s very uncomfortable my lower back and butt are still sore That aside, Lucas was a perfect tour guide, gave us great info on the nature and history of the area. Got to see seals , sea lions. And eagles

THIS IS ONE YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS!

This tour is one not to miss!!!!!! LUCAS was amazing!! He is such a knowledgeable and friendly guy. This tour was one of the best we have ever done. Truly spectacular. We saw so much wildlife and nature. Easy meetup/ pickup. They meet you directly at the cruise port and the zodiac dock was super close. Make sure to take your binoculars and camera.

Fun trip!

We had a great time, guide was great, boat was fun. Hard to see some of the wildlife pointed out, too far away, suggest you bring binoculars. Only complaint - Rain protection was too small, fit so tightly could hardly walk the ramp to boat, let alone climb in to boat. Thank goodness the crew was so accommodating. Actually had to crawl out on my hands and knees to dock when tour was over. Guess owner has been advised of this issue several times to no avail. Great crew!

We had a blast on this tour. Got to see whales, eagles , sea lions and more. Our guide was great. It was awesome exploring Alaska with the wind in your hair and on the water. If you like boating, this tour is for you. We absolutely loved it.
