Cần Quan Tâm
Experience kayaking in a true naturalist’s paradise, Haines, Alaska. Begin with a seaside drive to Chilkoot Lake State Park. See important Tlingit cultural sites, a salmon-filled river, and a turquoise lake surrounded by snow-capped mountains. Watch for wildlife; bald eagles, brown bear, and migratory birds.Sea kayaking is easy to learn and your expert guide will show you the basics of paddling. Outfitted with the proper gear, you’ll soon be gliding silently along the shores of the lake. This pristine lake is uncrowded, and the scenery is spectacular. Huge waterfalls spill off the cliffs surrounding the lake, lush green forests crowd the shoreline, and wildlife abounds. In May, June and July, the wildflowers are at their peak and bald eagles are busy caring for their young on the nest. Beginning in July, sockeye salmon spawn in one of the clear streams. Eagle and bear are often attracted to this spot, and you’ll be able to view all the activity from your kayak. In August and September, the brown bear come down to the river’s edge to feed. Your guide will do their best to give you the bear-viewing opportunity of a lifetime, while keeping you and the bears safe.

Good but room for improvement! Didn't get picked up at the end :(

3.00My girlfriend and I booked this excursion, and it was her "must do" while on our cruise to Alaska. She was excited the most to do this. It was good but definitely has some room for improvement! We got picked up on time and then took a short bus ride to get on the boat/ferry which was about 45-minute ride to the lake. Upon arriving at the lake there was a total of 6 of us on the kayak experience and we got a brief safety briefing (which as good) but we were offered no water or snack -didn't have any available which for the price for the excursion we paid I thought was poor!!!! It was the most expensive excursion we signed up even more so than whale watching and not sure why!!!! I mean what did we pay so much for? We put our kayaks in the water and did all the work. The guide didn't stay right with us he was often further ahead talking to the others. So it wasn't like we were getting history "talk/history" lesson. We did get to hike for a couple hours which was nice but again it was a nice sunny day and having the water would have been a nice perk. At the end, we got back on the bus and road back to the ferry drop off and NEVER got picked back up to take us to the cruise port. LUCKILY, we had time to walk it back otherwise then we would have been hustling since we waited around for a bit on our pickup. It was nice to do and experience as the mountains were beautiful but definitely needs some improvement!
