Tori was our guide. She is local really knows the area and was a wealth of information. Family had a great time.
Tori was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable and pointed out so many critters on the beach. Appreciate the information she provided!
This was a fantastic tour. Gabe was an amazing guide who was very knowledgeable about the habitat. The hike was not difficult and I was able to take some great picturesz
I had such a great time on this tour! Our guide was amazing—he was incredibly knowledgeable and you could tell he was genuinely passionate about Ketchikan, the rainforest, and everything that makes the area so special. Instead of just reciting facts, he shared stories and information in a way that kept me interested the entire time. He was funny, patient, and happy to answer every question without ever making anyone feel rushed. You could tell he really enjoys what he does, and that energy made the whole experience even better. He pointed out so many little details that I never would have noticed on my own, and I walked away feeling like I had learned so much. As someone visiting Alaska, this was exactly the kind of experience I was hoping for. It was beautiful, informative, and a lot of fun. If you're looking for a tour that's more than just a walk through the woods, I highly recommend this one. Thanks to our guide, it ended up being one of my favorite experiences of the trip!
Had a great experience - a nice walk through the forest with the guide pointing out edible plants and the like. Went to the Totem park and had a good experience then.
We wanted to get out and see more of Ketchikan than just downtown so on our weekend trip we booked this 3 hour rainforest walk tour. Our guides were on time right where we were supposed to meet. Adam and Gatlin were such friendly nice guys. Our shuttle was clean and Gatlin kept us entertained by answering all of our questions on the drive and tour. We hiked through the most beautiful, lush and green rainforest, saw a waterfall , hung out at a beach and then went on a totem park tour. You could tell that Gatlin loves his job and is super knowledgeable about everything. I would definitely recommend this company and tour to anyone visiting Ketchikan!
very informative, really enjoyed the tour, this was an alternative to our cruise excursion, we also got yummy cookies
Very knowledgeable and friendly tour guide. If you have issues with too many steps you might want to skip. The tour should supply a head photo system. If you were not walking near the guide you could not hear him.
Very informative hike in the forest.
Excellent experience! Would recommend this tour to anyone! Thanks!
