Eagle Preserve Float Trip in Haines

Overview

Simply put, a private rafting excursion is the best possible way to see bald eagles in their natural habitat. Floating through the heart of the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve in Haines Alaska is a must see attraction and you won't want to miss the jaw dropping scenery, delightful guides and genuine Alaskan wildlife.

Watch eagles catching salmon and caring for young eagles in the numerous nests that line the riverbanks. Look for bears, moose, and a host of other wildlife that call the preserve home.

Relax or take pictures as your private guide navigates the narrow channels of the Preserve's glacial fed rivers.

Enjoy a hearty snack and hot drinks at the end of the tour.

Local pickup and all river gear is included.

We loved this trip. Lizi and Andy promptly picked us up at the pier and transported us to the river. They gave us boots so we wouldn't mess up our shoes and we all got into the raft. It was wonderful floating down the rivers. Very peaceful. Andy is a great guide as he is well versed on the wildlife and plants in the area. Beautiful scenery too. We saw quite a few eagles.
We ended the trip by going ashore and meeting back up with Lizi who had set up chairs and a table filled with wonderful snacks and drinks.

We had an amazing excursion with Lizzie and Andy through Haines Rafting Company. Our guides were professional, helpful and knowledgeable. We learned about the landscape and animals in the area. Everything from transportation to lunch was coordinated and provided. Details were carefully considered - like providing boots at a muddy crossing. Lunch was great and ready as soon as we arrived at the river! They customized the experience for the needs of our group (~10 people) to include mountain biking and rafting/floating on the beautiful Chilkat river. We saw tons of eagles, and even two bears! Would definitely do again!
