Additional Information

You’re the Captain Now! Hop aboard our military grade inflatable fast boats for a guided excursion on the Pacific Ocean in Alaska’s Inside Passage! Take turns at the tiller driving or hang on and enjoy the ride. There are many tours here that allow you to just ride along, this isn’t one of them. Small groups of up to 3 inflatable fast boats follow a guide boat through the jagged coastline islands of Southeast Alaska in search of bald eagles nests, resident seals and sea lions, an immense array of inter tidal creatures and, everyone’s favorite, bubble-net feeding humpback whales! Clover Pass features calmer waters and often better weather than tours running in downtown Ketchikan so we love getting you out of town and away from the crowds. Let’s Go!

Magical Day in Ketchikan, Alaska - Stan was the most incredible Tour Operator & took some incredible photos of us out on the water. We felt like we made a friend yesterday.! Such a glorious Tour. Devon, the Company Owner went above and beyond to organise the most magical Seaplane Flight over the Misty Fjords for us as an additional service. He is so well connected in Ketchikan, has loads of integrity & really does everything to MAKE IT HAPPEN. We cannot recommend this Tour highly enough. Lock it in. Do yourself a favour! Helen & Mark.

Beautiful Fast Boat Tour - Ketchikan! - From start to finish this was an awesome excursion. Communication was great throughout the process. Met our guides as planned and proceeded to the area to get in the water. Met our guide Ben who gave us a safety brief and explained how to operate the fast boats. They gave us dry suits to keep us from getting wet. Boats and equipment were all in awesome condition. Proceeded to drive the boats around the beautiful water and scenery for over two hours. Ben was super helpful and knew a lot about the surrounding area. We saw a lot of wildlife (deer, bald eagles) but it was just breathtaking with the surrounding area. This is a must tour if you are in Ketchikan. We got back and they had an awesome spread of smoked salmon and other snacks. Quick ride back into town and off to explore the town. Had such an awesome time. Thanks Ben.

You have to do it too! - Wonderful tour! We were a small group, just us and our guide named Ben. He was top-notch! It was a little bit challenging at first to adjust to the zodiac on open water but we loved the adventure. Cruising the coastline, seeing the wildlife..totally worth it. We learned a lot about the nature in the area. Highly recommend! Great views, tons of up-close wildlife, and great fun. Thank you

Great day on the water! - This was a great tour. Our guide, Ben, was very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. The equipment was great and the wildlife viewing was amazing. If you haven't seen the Islands around Ketchikan or been on the water, you are missing out. The logistics of the tour was also perfect. We were picked up on time exactly where we were told to meet. We rescheduled this and another tour with Devon, the owner of Ketchikan Kayak Co., several times. He was very responsive to all of our calls and emails. It is really refreshing to talk to a "live" person who understands customer service.

Fun adventure! - We had a fantastic time on the zodiac adventure! We spotted many bald eagles and a seal. Unfortunately we did not encounter any whales, but we do know that the group before us did spot some that morning. Ben, our guide, was very knowledgeable and talked about the wildlife as well as the history of the area. If you like being out on the water and being adventurous this tour is for you! We would definitely do it again!

Loved it, even in the rain! - Loved it! Even in the rain, it was worth the price. Driving our own fast boats was especially fun. We saw stellar sea lions and eagles and it was peaceful just being on the water. The team is very professional and friendly. After a 15-20 min drive from the cruise port to their site, they give you heavy duty rain gear (overalls, jackets, boots and gloves). In May Iʻd still recommend wearing several layers underneath just incase the wind is strong. This tour was one of the highlights of our Alaska vacation and very easy to walk to the meeting at the cruise port. Thank you so much!
