What makes Private Ketchikan Tour in '67 VW Van a unique experience ?
We will meet and greet our group on the dock at Berth 2 near the Rock Statue.
As we drive through historical Ketchikan you will learn about the town's colorful past.
At Rotary Beach we will have time to explore an Alaskan Beach. Our guides will point out the flora and fauna, some that only live in this niche ecosystem. It the tide is right, we can look for tide pool creatures. The view out over Nichols passage makes for the perfect photo opportunity. This is also a great spot to scan for wildlife (not guaranteed).
This stop includes scenic views of Herring Cove. Herring cove is home to the sight of one of our many fish hatcheries. Our guide might even share a story of running around the hatchery as a kid. This sight is an excellent spot to look for eagles and other wildlife (not guaranteed).
Our last stop is at amazing waterfall that is just a few steps off the road. This stop also puts you into the heart of the rainforest here in Ketchikan. If it is in season, you might even get to see our amazing salmon berries in bloom.
As we drive back to town, we will make our way along the Tongass Narrows where you can hear about the rich fishing history of Southeast Alaska. If time allows, we will make one final photo stop looking out over Nichols Passage.
