Wonderful Tour!! - We decided on this tour last minute, and I am so glad we did!! Our family had a wonderful time with Caroline. We saw a bear, harbor seals, beautiful scenery and totem poles. Caroline was a great guide and so very kind! We would recommend this tour to others and would book again if ever in the area!

Great stress-free afternoon. - We had a great time with Mary showing us around Ketchikan. She was early at the pick up point but it was very easy to connect with her. She showed us around Ketchikan and gave some great advice on shopping afterwards. We were traveling with someone with some minor mobility issues and she was able to get in and out of the van easily and we were able to take things at her pace.

Awesome - Our tour guide Mary was excellent, she took us to excellent spots where we saw Black in its natural habitat and an amazing spot with more than a dozen eagles. The private tour is excellent with personal touches from the tour guide and we never felt rushed, we ended up being over our scheduled time.

Don’t hesitate - book this tour for an authentic and amazing experience - What a wonderful and authentic way to experience Ketchikan! This tour and experience with the Johnson Family (a true local family business) exceeded expectations. They were incredibly communicative, responsive and even early to the pick up spot just off the dock. It was just our family of 5 in a very spacious van which provided such a unique and custom experience that they tailored to our interests. Learning about their clans and the history of their people and their home here in Ketchikan and hearing the stories of the beautiful totems was incredible. Their passion for their culture and the nature here was apparent and contagious. We saw bears, bald eagles and were taken to places where the large cruise tours never even go to like their local pool, a hidden waterfall and Totem Bight park. Skip the mass tours from the cruise and book directly with this wonderful group to make the most of your time in this beautiful place and learn about its rich history from true locals. This was far more than just another tour, it was a wonderful afternoon and highlight of our Alaska trip.

Mary was a great tour guide - For Ketchikan, I prebooked this private guide through Viator and that worked very well. Mary was extremely kind and informative. We really enjoyed seeing all the bald eagles. We booked this for our excursion from the Majestic Princess. We enjoyed this excursion more than the ship’s offerings that we used in Juneau and Skagway. The private tour was just us, and it was more personal, and we got a break from the crowds. We gave ourselves at least an hour ahead of the deadline to return to the ship.
