We had limited time in Ketchikan and wanted to make the most of it. We chose Wild Wolf tours based on previous reviews and were very pleased. Our guide Natalie who is Navajo was very knowledgeable about both nature and Alaska Native culture. The walk through the rainforest was awesome. Natalie pointed out many different types of trees and plants and discussed how they fit into the rainforest ecosystem. At the Totem Park she explained in detail how each totem had a particular story that related to the history of that clan. We came away with great knowledge about this part of Alaska and highly recommend the tour.

Natalie was amazing. Gretchen(my girlfriend) & myself did the three hour hike with her. From the minute we met, until the end of it all, she was very engaging & energetic....She shared some interesting facts and tidbits about the city of Ketchikan. We will be back again next year and hope to have her again....She even dropped us off at the Alaska Fish House afterwards... She made the tour totally worth while....Gretchen & I were grateful !!!
