• Wildly overpriced, racially upsetting and embarrasing

  Felt like a major scam. At $50 per person, for hardly 3 hours of travel (including wait for departure), I expected a custom tour to include areas not frequented by larger tour companies. Our guide, Shad, went to all the same spots, at precisely the same times as other groups. He acted irritated by the crowds, yet should have been familiar with their standard itineraries, and could easily have visited the stops in a different order, at least. He left us on our own at the indigenous village (why would any customer hire a private guide, just so he could disappear??), affording us very little understanding about what we visited. Tragically, the branding of this tour "by a local" did not mean the guide was a member of the local tribe. In fact, he continually made comments disparaging the tribe, such as "they aren't like you and me, they expect the government to...", or "their burials are not like ours, it's crazy, but they still believe that..." I'm horrified to guess what he meant by "us", which not only assumed that we shared his religious, racial, and (strong) political background, but demonstrated how poorly he read his audience, a family of Chinese Hawaiians. Every time he made an insensitive or bigoted comment, we sat in surreal silence, dumbfounded and hoping it would end. I'm so ashamed that I was the one who discovered and booked this tour, and that I didn't have the funds to reimburse my fellow passengers for the awful experience.

  We did have an absolutely great tour with detailed explanations of the Totem poles and extraordinary bear sightings with cubs in the rain forest.

• Amazing!

  We had a wonderful time in Ketchikan with Shad. We loved to see the father of the killer’s whale just by the shore. It was also amazing to see the perseverance that salmons have when they go up through the river to lay their final eggs.

• Worth the price for sure!

  Mike was an amazing tour guide of Ketchikan! He knew the best spot for us to finally see a bear! He helped us climb down into a waterfall, see salmon running and even showed us where to shop for the best “non-tourist” souvenirs. He was easy to find and had a great planned day for us. We really enjoyed our time with him. It was the best day of our trip for sure! Thank you so much for everything!

  Dale is a very friendly and personable guide. He was very knowledgeable and treated everyone like family. We all enjoyed his enthusiasm for his job and his down to earth character. Highly recommend him. Thx
