Wonderful Experience! - We had a great tour with Ava who was our guide. We visited Salmon Ladders, saw lots of Salmon, eagles. We went to a beach at low tide and the kids were so excited to explore the star fish, jelly fish, and lots of other sea life at low tide. The guide was local and very knowledgeable about local life and my kids loved her stories of how she grew up in Alaska and how her kids are growing up and the way of life. She taught my kids how to do a bird call with grass and they have not stopped doing it since! 😂 we really enjoyed the tour and would love to come back for a longer time to explore beautiful Ketchikan!

This tour moves quick,... - This tour moves quick, but you get to see so many highlights of Ketchikan in a short time which is great if that's all you have! Our tour guide Ava was wonderful, she gave us so many local insights and shared about her own life and experience so we could truly understand what it means to be a member of this community. The tour was small which was wonderful as well, we were comfortable in the vehicle and throughout.

Ava is the best guide! Great tour to get an understanding of life and nature in Alaska. - Ava was the best tour guide ever! She a native to Ketchikan and therefore was able to provide all the insides of the real life in Alaska (from cultural to bear hunting!). We saw many bald eagles right above our heads and Ava was super knowledgeable about the wildlife. She took us to many places (as described in the itinerary description) and respected the timeline as initially plan. I have only one negative point to mention (as room for improvement) though. When you arrive at Ketchikan, outside of the Visitors Center there are hundreds (maybe thousands) of people and so many guided tours awaiting to group the participants and kick off. Tour guides were holding signs indicating the name of the operator and title of the excursion so participants could easily spot them (given the massive crowd outside of the cruise ships). However, there was no representative of this tour holding any sign so I was walking up and down and around to find the tour which was supposed to start at 10.30 a.m.. I was there looking for them from 10.15 and nobody was there until 10.40. As you may understand, I was thinking that I had missed the excursion (which was quite stressful as I had no other activity for the day and travelling solo). I called Seaside tours twice but nobody would pick up the phone. Same thing was mentioned by other participants to the tour. However, Ava was so good at her job which compensated for this inconvenience.
