The weather gods smiled upon us and we had the most amazing day. Beautiful sun. Mild temps. Our guide was full of fun facts about Ketchican. The oyster farm was informative and the oysters fresh and delicious. What a beautiful day! Thank you!

Hump Island Oyster & Kelp Farm with Tasting
fawnmarieg2026, Sep 2026
Exciting Time!
Such an exciting time! The tour was about 3 hours from start to finished, including transport. Was never boring. The guides had lots of stories. We learned about the town, the oyster farming process and got to taste FRESH oysters. Both educational and delicious. The tour group size was small, about 12 people. The atmosphere was friendly, cozy, like a small group of new friends. A great experience for "how it's made" nerds and foodies. The guides and staff were friendly and excited to share their knowledge. They took great care of us. Totally worth the money. Highly recommend!

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!

Review
Nice all woman crew. Very informative, great boating skills. We were able to avoid the lines for free shuttle to town and it was well worth the cost of the ticket. The dock is right near all the shops, close to the fire department and then creek street. Highly recommend.

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 😁

Best transportation to and from Ketchikan
During this trip, the boat tour back to ship provided beautiful views of Ketchikan that would not be seen otherwise! The staff was great and provided lots of colorful commentary about the local area. We definitely prefer the small tour experience, not to mention it saved 9 blocks of walking back to the bus station! In Alaska take a small group boat tour wherever you can!

Fun Kayaking Adventure Away From The Crowds
My wife and I were traveling with friends, and booked this excursion for when our cruise ship stopped in Ketchikan. This was our first stop on the cruise, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Tim was an awesome guide and had everything we needed for the outing. He shared lots of interesting information about the area and the wildlife. Tim truly went out of his way to make it an awesome experience for us. After kayaking for a bit, he gave us the option of exploring one of the islands on foot, which we chose to do and really enjoyed. If you are looking for a great small group outing that gets away from all the crowds with a guide who is very knowledgeable and truly passionate about what he does, then I highly recommend Tim and Alaska Kayak Company.
