Great option for seeing a lot and staying dry

We just finished our duckboat tour with Captain Miguel and narrator Preston. These 2 were awesome.lots of great information. Lots of eagles. With all the rain in Ketchikan, this is a great option for seeing a lot of town while staying dry.

Top notch guide, driver, and tour

Guide Olivia and Captain Jonathan are a great team. Olivia provided a fun-filled commentary on Ketchikan, while Captain Jonathan was a professional driver. A highlight of our tour were the dozens of eagles along the harbor. This tour is a great value.
