One of the best excursions for the money in ketchikan.

Our second visit on the duck boats in ketchikan. Always a good time. Narrator Tracy from Florida and Captain / driver Miguel from Austin Texas we're both tremendous.

A tour full of facts and fun

Captain Mike and Sierra were awesome. Sierra was very knowledgeable of the town and gave out fun facts and trivia. She was always open to questions and if there was something she couldn’t answer captain mike was there to fill in the gaps. There wasent questions they couldn’t answer. They did their best to point out the local wildlife and encouraged us to point it out in case they miss it. At the end of our tour there was a trivia quiz and if you pay attention captain mike might help out with a few of them. He just won’t say it out loud. I REALLY APPRECIATED that they sold the duck whistles at the end of the tour because I would have been annoyed with the quacks if I had to listen to it the entire tour. Definitely will book with them again

As a Professor, the grade is A+

The duck tour, with Miguel as our driver and Olivia as our guide was lively, informative, and fun. The safety features were well-described right from the start. Olivia did a perfect job of providing useful and colorful stories regarding the history of Ketchikan. She prompted interesting questions, pointed out eagles and a whale sighting, and was perky and cheerful. I am especially happy to commend this team as a Professor of Educational Psychology. I know how communication can be conveyed for optimal learning, thus kudos to Olivia for earning an A+ on our trip. In addition, Miguel was also a skillful and respectful driver with impressive credentials. All told, a fantastic - well-beyond expectations - experience
