About this activity
You'll be picked up from your Ketchikan hotel at your selected departure time and taken to the launch site for a safety orientation session from your experienced guide. When you’re ready, hop in your 14-foot (4-meter) Zodiac boat with your group of up to four people, and follow your guide on an Alaskan wilderness adventure.
You’ll spend 1.5 hours cruising along secluded bays, past lush rainforest islands, and deep into inlets. During your exhilarating ride, keep an eye out for wildlife including whales, seals, eagles, sea lions and bears along the shore. Your boat is fully equipped with console steering and seating for up to four people, and can reach speeds of up to 29 mph (47 kph)!
Make your way to a beach for a rest break and some delicious hot cocoa, tea and cookies. Take time here to soak in views of the beautiful landscape.
On your return trip, hand the helm over to your fellow boatman for your turn to sit back, relax and enjoy the views. Pass rocky islands where humpback whales and orca frequently surface, and venture deep into bays and inlets where salmon-filled streams attract black bears.
You’ll receive an Alaskan boatman certificate at the end of your tour to commemorate this amazing wilderness experience!

The trip was excellent, they picked us up and returned us on time. The boating experience was very exciting. Got to see lots of wildlife. Our guide Billy was great fun and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this excursion to everyone!!!
One of the best excursions we took on our weeklong Alaskan cruise. We saw a LOT of eagles, seals and even an up close encounter with a humpback whale. Tour guide was awesome. Extremely knowledgeable and funny. Highly recommended!!!!
Excellent tour! I drove the Zodiac by myself for the entire trip. It was easy to learn and I mastered it in 5 minutes. Highly recommend!!
