So Many Eagles So Little Time

It was a cool and rainy day for this tour which turned out to be perfect for finding eagles! We saw 38. The crew of the boat was very attentive to the needs of the passengers... If you take this trip, make sure to enjoy the hot chocolate and salmon spread with crackers.

Above and Beyond

Could not have asked for a better experience! Our deckhand, Andrew, was instrumental in making it so as my daughter was on crutches at the time. He went out of his way to ensure she had a wonderful experience despite her lack of mobility.

Excellent Tour

The wildlife wasn't in captivity. They showed up on time ....... The area was stunning, the crew was knowledgeable, and we got a sea shanty that wasn't advertised. Excellent tour.

Funny and Informative

As a local, I love this tour. I have gone on it and learned something new. When family or friends come to town this is the tour I recommend. The Captains are great at their job and the crew they hire are funny and informative.

Great Tour!

This is a world winning excursion... The captain and crew truly do have so much passion in their service... We received hot chocolate upon arrival, home made delicious salmon dip and crackers as a snack. We saw at least a dozen bald eagles and overall had an outstanding time. Thank you to Anthony, Marcus & Captain Kyle!

Cruise past panoramic views of the Tongass National Forest, view the intricately carved totem poles and clan house at Totem Bight State Park, and hear the unique story of Guard Island Lighthouse. Along the way, watch for wildlife with binoculars in hand— including guaranteed sightings of American bald eagles.

From the open-air deck, you’ll be treated to panoramic views of the Southeast Alaskan seascape. When the crisp air turns cool, relax in the heated cabin with a taste of local fare as your captain and crew share stories of life in Alaska.
