Great experience!

This was a great experience! We booked last minute so I was a little nervous. Our tour guide, Cora, was very informative and told us about everything we were driving past. We only got to see two bears and two deer but we learned so much. She didn’t have another tour after us so she took us out a little longer than it was scheduled!
Prepared, informative

We "got lucky" because our guide was prepared. Spotted more bears than expected for this time of year and lived to tell the tale with pictures and video
Nothing to see

Didn't see anything and it was just a three hour bumpy bus ride. Tour guide was 30 minutes late at picking us up. Wouldn't recommend this trip.

No one on cruise ship or locals could give directions to starting place listed on confirmation. Dropped off for return at handicap assist transport bench - no assistance transport vehicle ever showed up making it difficult to get back to ship
No Bears, Just Scat

Nice van tour of the island and area. We booked the tour in hopes of seeing bears or other wildlife as that is the focus of the tour and the area. Saw 2 deer and a snow bunny on the 3 hour tour. Other than scat, no sign of a bear or anything of interest. Driver/Guide did not seem that surprised we did not see bear, which surprised us. Maybe you will get luckier but temper any expectations, at least early in the season.
A 3 hour bus ride

We ended up riding in the bus for the entire time with only a ten minute stop. No bears. I know that’s not guaranteed but maybe we could have seen something else?
Great tour with excellent customer service

The customer service was outstanding and fixed our trip to Hoona. Our ship delayed our arrival to Hoona making us miss our search tour. I called Angie and she not only got us scheduled with another tour, but also due to the circumstances,. It turned into a private tour where we were the only ones in the search party. We did not see any bears but that’s not the tour guides fault and he was very knowledgeable of the area and of bear tracking. We would do the tour again!
Great experience!

We spent the morning with Cora! She provided a lot of history about the area from a personal perspective. We saw 2 bears and were able to observe them for a while. I’d highly recommend this tour and Cora was fantastic!
