This was a great trip! It was a beautiful day and we had a wonderful seaplane ride and a beautiful short walk through part of a rain forest. Our guide was great and very passionate about the rain forest. I was bummed that we did not see any bears, but it was still a great and memorable trip!

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to experience a beautiful part of Alaska on your Prince of Wales Island Bear Viewing tour. We were bummed for you as well that the bears were not out in force. There are so many factors and conditions that change constantly and we are happy you were able to enjoy the flight and our rain forests! Take care, Lesley Kamm SeaWind Aviation

It was a great great time! Dave was our guide when we got to the forest and it was INCREDIBLE! All of the staff was great and kind. Dave was super knowledgeable and you could tell he loved his job more the just the money, he had a true passion to love and show you bears. We went in late august in the morning. More people seemed to book the afternoon so if you’re willing to get up early you will probably have less people!

Lesley, Steve and Dan provided top notch service as we explored Traitor's Cove Bear feeding site with their professionally run organization! The experience is amazing, Dan's knowledge of the area and nature that surrounded us was superb, and Steve's flying confidence and sky-tour of Ketchikan and surrounding area was extraordinary. Per their plan, we were able to see a handful of bears feeding on the live salmon in the river leading inland... We would do this again in a heartbeat! PS Shelby was wonderful on the very personal shuttle service!! :)
