flcruiser05 Posted April 17, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 17, 2018 My husband and I are sailing the Bliss in August for an Alaskan cruise. It will most likely be our only cruise to Alaska. I'm trying to decide which tour to take in Ketchikan. We can either take a Misty Fjords floatplane tour with island wings or a flightseeing tour and crab feast that goes to the George Inlet Lodge. My main objective is to ride a floatplane. Will I miss out on better scenery if we do the crab feast option? If anyone has done both tours, which would you recommend? The price is about the same for both. Thanks in advance for your assistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olya1972 Posted April 21, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Just want to bump it up, also interested in this info:). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie11 Posted April 21, 2018 #3 Share Posted April 21, 2018 The crab feast is one of my favorites, so I probably wouldn’t pass it up. Princess has an excursion that does both Misty Fjords and the crab feast, while the flightseeing and crab feast is a shorter flight. I don’t know if the former is exclusive to Princess.

Dancing Shoes Posted April 21, 2018 #4 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I would go with Island Wings if you have the chance. There are other places where you can get the Dungeness crab. Look at the reviews on trip advisor about the crab feast. Price looks about right if you can eat the equivalent of a whole crab. I read you can also book it independently.

flcruiser05 Posted April 25, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Thank you both for you input. I think we are going to do the crabfeast. My husband doesn't think the scenery will be much different. That gets us both what we want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Crew News Posted April 25, 2018 #6 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Thank you both for you input. I think we are going to do the crabfeast. My husband doesn't think the scenery will be much different. That gets us both what we want. Hint: Don't fill up on the appetizers but save room for the crab. Most I could eat was six half crabs in the allotted 50 minutes. Only room for one bite of the delicious NY-style cheesecake with blueberry compote.
