Picked up this excursion off our ship (at the dock) and they were very friendly and laid back from the start. The price was ~$20 less pp than the cruise charged and we got an almost private trip (they only take a max of 6). Our guide, Mitch was very knowledgable and made it a ton of fun. The views... More

Be sure to visit here and do a tour. The local people are friendly to tourist and the fishing is excellent More

Our kayak trip with Skeeter was one of the best parts of our trip to Alaska! He was great and took us all around and we got a great work-out as well. We were fortunate that the tide was in and we were able to get into some more interesting passages. I would highly recommend this company!! More

Thank you Dana and Sitka... More

They met us at the airport and moved all of our gear to their 'office' at the marina parking lot. The three kayaks were in excellent shape. Allison sat... More
