Scott did an amazing job with our tour. We had the opportunity to see whales and go into Misty Fjord National Park. The boat is small yet comfortable with indoor room for the 6 people in my family, he communicated clearly throughout the whole process, and was VERY attentive to my family's needs.
No guarantees that you will see all of this, but we had a chance to see a pod of orcas, eagles, porpoises.
We didn't do the fishing, 10/10 regret not booking a fishing charter.

Captain Scott really made this trip. He has remarkable knowledge of the seas and bays in the area around Ketchikan and it paid off in whale sightings, porpoise sightings, seal sightings, bald eagle sightings and sea otter sightings. This trip had two couples. One person had never seen a whale and having that person see a whale was the goal. captain Scott made that possible. Our next trip with Captain Scott will be fishing.

Kind of a huge disappointment. We booked the whale watching tour and the boat captain was very nice and accommodating with picking us up at the pier after we finished the Lumberjack Show. We went around the harbor for 2 hours and saw not one whale. He stopped by a spot where there were some sea lions but you had to use binoculars to actually see them. Then he stopped at a spot where there was an eagle, but we didn’t pay almost $200 per person to see one eagle and a few far off sea lions. I get it, sometimes the whales are not there, but in that case I don’t think the whole $179 per person should be charged. Also I don’t think he was in contact with any other boats to find out where the whales were, we were just sort of riding around. At the end of the trip we were deciding if we should add on the bear watching part for an additional $100 per person, but I kind of felt like I didn’t want to waste any more money. I asked what the likelihood of no bears being in the place they were taking us to was, and they said there is a family of bears that has been there everyday and we would for sure 100% see bears. They said it was a mother and her Cubs and at least 2 adult male bears. So we paid the extra $$ and their driver took us to the side of the road 20 minutes away behind a fish hatchery, which was weird, and guess what? Not one bear. All in all it was a huge waste of time. I felt like I got completely ripped off.
