Wonderful!
New York City
Lighthouse, Totems & Eagles Excursion (Ketchikan)
doxymum, Sep 2026
Wonderful!
Such a fun excursion! We saw many eagles, enjoyed delicious hot cocoa and snacks and were treated to excellent narration by the captain. One tip- book with the company rather than your cruise line. Apparently we overpaid by about $100. Yikes!

Memories captured here!
Saint was so knowledgeable about the nature, history, and geography - not to mention the tips he shared about capturing our once in a lifetime photos! Waterfalls, salmon run, totem history - too many memorable moments to name them all! Would give him 10 stars if that was an option! I am so grateful and would 💯 recommend to anyone!!

It was a fun afternoon for us and our adult son. Travis was a great storyteller, and I really appreciated that there was no sales pitch or pressure to purchase their products. The sparkles, flavors and fun colors were a delight to play with.

Private Ketchikan City Totems & Wildlife Van Tour
rjordanguillory, Sep 2026
Amazing tour!
Art was a stellar guide and me and my kids had a BLAST on this tour! He’s very adaptable and took us to places we wanted to go as well as included our natural tour experience. We saw two bears, a million salmon, bald eagle, searched for gold flakes (found some!), and beautiful totems.. wonderful tour but too short! We could have spent another few hours with Art at least! Highly recommend!

Excellent bit of local history and craft science throughout experience.
New York City
Distillery Tour and Signature Bottle Infusion Experience
iansB569JZ, Sep 2026
Excellent bit of local history and craft science throughout experience.
Excellent experience that blended a brand of interpersonal comedy, local history, and the science of crafting alcohol, all while sampling different types of in-house vodka, gin, and whiskey. This was capstoned by crafting your own bottle of alcohol with flavor infusions at their upstairs craft room. The tour took place in an old fire station and held the Firehouse theme throughout, and was truly tied in through the personal experience of the tour guide in his time as a firefighter/fire chief.

BBBBTravel, Sep 2026
Cute
Never saw Burlesque before so I wasn’t sure what to expect but I thought it was cute. Quite campy and silly but fun. It was actually a great inro to Creek Street, where we walked later. So all in all, it was a treat.

Went on the Bear Adventure by Land and Sea with cruise ship. It was amazing to see the bears and to be guided by Jane. She was so knowledgable and friendly and passionate. Jane is really a natural at guiding and you’re very lucky to have her in the company.

A five start day from start to finish. PJ was amazing and gave us all the local lore on Ketchikan and the early settlers. It was by far one of best days of the trip! And not to mention making new friends from Iowa 😁
