This was an option on our 15 day UnCruise trip exploring the inside package. The trip was fantastic! The bus ride up river a delight w9th Byrne, the rafting guide Nate great and very much intune with nature and environmental and philosophy of the natural world, and the pull out easy and again a great trip back to Haines. I would recommend it to anyone!

A very pleasant afternoon, floating down the Chilkat, spotting bald eagles and their nests. Our guide, Dave, was very expert at manoeuvring the raft safely, all the while pointing out the birds and nests, and relating a wealth of details and information.

Byrne our driver was very entertaining and informative for the bus transfers out to the raft launch site and later back to town. Steve our raft "captain" was also very informative as we slowly drifted back down the river. Very interesting to listen to both persons take on life in a small Alaskan town. Certainly not a white water adventure but well worth doing. A pocket point and shoot camera worked well rather than my usual SLR.
