Leć wodnosamolotem wzdłuż pięknych dróg wodnych bujnego Lasu Narodowego Tongass przez wyspę Revilagegedo do szlaku utrzymywanego przez Służbę Leśną Stanów Zjednoczonych i platformy widokowej Margarete Creek Bear Viewing. Można zobaczyć niedźwiedzie zanurzające się w rwącej wodzie, aby odzyskać posiłki w postaci wijącego się łososia. To doskonała okazja, aby sfotografować prawdziwego rybaka z Alaski w akcji! Oprócz żerowania niedźwiedzi, zobaczysz także bieliki amerykańskie zbierające resztki pozostawione przez niedźwiedzie i oczywiście prawdziwe gwiazdy serialu, łososie, które walczą w górę rzeki o tarło. Twojej podróży będzie towarzyszył przewodnik niedźwiedzia Island Wings, który po drodze udzieli informacji na temat flory i fauny. Połącz krótką wędrówkę, piękne krajobrazy i wspaniałe wrażenia z dzikiej przyrody podczas jednej wycieczki.

We booked this trip after a lot of research. We were met by Jensen and were happy to learn that we were the only passengers on that day! Jensen was warm and friendly from the start . Michelle is an excellent pilot and really made us feel safe. Jensen was our guide to the bear viewing platform and is a very knowledgeable about the bears we were about to see. There is a short, very enjoyable walk to the viewing platform where we saw our first bears. We were the only people present and were able to enjoy several exclusive hours watching several bears before another party arrived. We were able to remain long after the other party left . Jensen was a top guide with a great sense of humour. Overall I would not hesitate to recommend this trip as we had an amazing time and loved every minute!

Dear 599annie, Thank you for the great review on your trip to Traitors Cove! I'm happy to hear that you felt safe flying with me and that you enjoyed your time watching bears with Jenson! He has a quirky sense of humor and keeps us laughing most days! Our tours are longer than any of the other companies who offer Bear Viewing tours to Traitors Cove. The reason for this is, as you know, the bears come and go, come and go, form the viewing area. If people are not allowed to stay very long on the platform, they run the risk of not seeing any bears at all. Most companies are trying to fit more trips in per day so the tours have to be shorter. Thank you so much for flying with us! Wishing you many more "WOW" moments in your travels! Michelle, Jensen, Adam, Shona & Kelly

This trip was an incredible experience from start to end. Michelle is a very good pilot (I was terrified to fly and came back completely calm) and transmits her love about flying and about all the nature in this place. Jensen is a fantastic tour guide making the experience much better. What I liked most from this specific tour is that there was a long time to see the salmons and bears. When we arrived to the watching point there were no bears at all; we thought we had very bad luck and we wouldn't see any. Together with us at the observing platform there was another group from another company; they were there just about 30 minutes, saw one bear and left. We saw more than 12! We could see how young bears are learning to catch, old ones catching instantly and how young respect the old when they had an encounter. We love nature. This was watching bears from a close distance in their environment without disturbing them, which is fantastic. Michelle and Jensen, thank you very much for making this a perfect experience.

Dear Gadi B, Thank you for your lovely review on our tour to Traitors Cove Bear Viewing! As you have experienced wildlife is wild and there is no controlling when the bears come and go from the viewing platform. The only way to ensure my guests have the best possible opportunity to view bears is to give them ample time at Traitors Cove. Other companies offering tours to Traitors Cove have much shorter viewing times on site. I'm glad to hear Jensen was a fantastic guide for you! His quirky snese of humor and knowledge about the flora and fauna of Southeast Alaska make him a good fit for the job! Thank you again for flying with us! May you have many more enjoyable travels! Michelle

Lady Esther is a beautiful 1959 built Beaver , we were flown to Traitors Cove by Michelle ( the owner thanks Michelle) i was lucky enugh to be " co pilot" just about managing to get my 6ft 4 inch frame under the flying controls and keeping clear of the pedals !! , MIchelle gave a bit of a commentary during ur flight to the Cove , were we landed and transferred with our Guide Jensen into Bear country !! Jensen was excellent , he gave us a safety briefing before we started our litte forest trek, and told us what we needed to do if we encountered a Bear ( which is what we had come to see ) we were lucky enough to see 7 seperate Bears during our three hours of watching, it felt as though we were there only about an hour. Overall this was a magical experience, one i would love to repeat if it wasnt too far away. All the while when booking the tour i dealt with Shona, by e-mail or phone and she was wonderful, everything went without a hitch and i have been extremely impressed with the whole operation of Island Wings Air Service.

Dear Matt S, Thank you for the exceptional review! Yes getting into the co-pilot seat requires a bit of what we like to call "airplane yoga" especially for the taller folks! It's more of a seat you "wear" rather than relax in. Worth the effort though for people who rarely get the opportunity to sit there! Happy to hear the bears cooperated for you!! Wildlife has that "wild" aspect to it so we cannot control how many bears each group will see there. We do however allow our passengers to stay on site at Traitors Cove longer than any of the other tour operators, which in turn allows for the best possible viewing opportunities. This is Jensen's second year guiding at Traitors Cove, we are so happy to have him as he is doing a wonderful job for us! Shona' has been with working for me for 13 years now, she is the one who keeps the schedule straight and us pilots and guide's out of her office and in the field where we belong....out of her hair! I hope all of your adventures in Alaska were equally magical! Thanks again for flying with us! All the best, Michelle
