TomMMD Posted August 6, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 6, 2016 We are off to Alaska next week. Little late to be doing research but here goes. We are thinking of booking the "Wildlife & Birdlife Sanctuary Tour" from Ketchikan Shore Tours. Anyone know anything -- pro or con -- about them?

The "name" tells me nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budget Queen Posted August 7, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 7, 2016 What is your reason for choosing this? What do you want to see. About all you can expect- is a nice wooded, short walk, raindeer (caribou) eagles, (which you can see all over Alaska). A lot of people do not see any bears. Over all low sighting stats. IF bears are your interest, you have to be accepting of not seeing any. Far better chances elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomMMD Posted August 8, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Thanks. Mostly interested in bears. Turns out they are full anyway. Suggestions for Ketchikan or Juneau for bear sightings? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomMMD Posted August 8, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted August 8, 2016 BTW, I know there are never guarantees of bear activity Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted August 8, 2016 #7 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I'd book any vendor that has space for Traitor's Cove out of Ketchikan. Try Southeast Aviation, etc. Out of Juneau, you can park yourself, all day out at Mendenhall keeping an ear and eye out. Chance, but not high percentages of seeing bears. Much better chances- IF interested, see if any Pack Creek permits are available your day, and get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
