100% worth it. The Fjords were amazing and I really enjoyed the landing on the lake. I was afraid the fog would hinder the experience, but only made the photos even more mystical and Alaskan.

We (2 adults & 2 10 year old boys) did the crab feast on our Disney cruise last summer. We booked the crab fest flight through DCL for our excursion in Ketchikan.
So glad we did. We were picked up at the ship and taken to their "air port"/docks.
Our pilot (I REALLY wish I had written down his name...

What a great experience this 2-3 hour trip was. In mid-August 2012, my wife and I went on a float plane trip with Taquan Air Tours to Prince of Wales island about 30 minutes from Ketichan. It was a beautiful clear and calm day. We then took a short ride and hike to see bears hunting for salmon swimming up...

We booked this excursion using the Alaska Tour Saver coupon and got a BOGO deal. Awesome experience. We were blessed with beautiful weather the day of our flight, which was great since most days in Ketchikan are rainy. Shuttle was awaiting our cruise ship as promised and took us to the office. Very professional and well organized. Our pilot was...

Booked through Carnival Spirit, September 2012. This is a great tour and one of the highlights of my cruise. Definitely worth the money to see Alaska from the air. We had a beautiful sunny day in Ketchikan which is apparently somewhat rare. It was really neat to land the floatplane on a remote lake and step out onto the floats....

Our private air excursion on Taquan Air in a DeHavilland Beaver was definitely a highlight of our Alaska trip. We had a gorgeous day, and the views of Misty Fjords were terrific. We landed in Walker Cove and had a chance to climb out on the floats and look around. Our pilot, Dan, was excellent and provided just the right...

I flew Taquan Air on 7 August 2012 and found it an excellent experience. The company is very professional. We flew to a site about 50 miles north of their base and landed. We were met at the dock with a van that took us about a mile to a path we would take to watch the bears.

These guys know what they're doing. We booked our trip through Princess Cruises and were very well cared for. The flight was very smooth; I understand it's usually raining here but we had a rare dry day. Our pilot was great. Takeoffs and landings were incredibly smooth. I have a pilot's license and have some seaplane training so I really...

Our flight seeing trip of Misty Fjord's National Monument was on a very drizzly, somewhat chilly day. We were picked up in a van at the cruise ship terminal and taken to where Taquan air has their planes take off. We watched a safety video and then boarded our plane. We had headsets on so that we could hear the...

A great trip by seaplane with Taquan. We flew over the mountains to the fjords, landed on the lake, walked on the floats. Great commentary from our pilot & even though it drizzled & the clouds were low, the scenery was spectacular. Pricey but worth every penny!
