Saw so many eagles! The day was chilly and rainy, but still enjoyable. They provided ponchos and boots, but I should have taken gloves and more layers. It was still an awesome experience. Our guides, Cordelia and Liv were also great and entertaining! It took a while to get there due to the transfer from Skagway to Haines, but our cruise ship handled the arrangements and it was still seamless.

I took this tour from a cruise ship out of Skagway, AK. This made for a long day, so I would suggest you take the excursion out of Haines, AK for a more enjoyable day. I went in mid August and a long sleeved shirt and rain jacket was fine as it didn't rain. The ride was enjoyable through the Preserve and we did see a few Eagles. The guides were very knowledgeable and eager to answer all our questions.

Smooth sailing with Scott Ramsey, Ian, Cordelia, and the whole crew! Eagles are unpredictable—a matter of spotting them perched high or rapidly flying overhead. Our raft captain knew where to take us, how to deftly guide the raft through occasional barriers and obstacles, and then served a bagged deli-style lunch and hot chocolate that hit the spot. My only regret is forgetting to bring binoculars, but I still saw around a dozen eagles and a few nests. Scott was especially enlightening about what it’s like to live in the area and kept us all in happy spirits. Great job!
