Elaine5715 Posted June 12, 2021 #1 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Suggestions for excursion operators to see bears in Ketchikan in August 2021. It doesn't look like the one originally operated through Carnival is being offered. No small planes please. My dad had a Piper Vagabond and I never got past airsickness.

kochleffel Posted June 13, 2021 #2 Share Posted June 13, 2021 I can only tell you that Alaska Shore Excursions does list a bear tour by boat to Traitor's Cove as operating this season. It's in the same price range as an air tour, although the one by air that I was interested in probably won't go this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyMac72 Posted June 13, 2021 #3 Share Posted June 13, 2021 I'm going in September and want to find something to see bears as well. If you find one, please let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you find one, please let me know! I don't know the answer to this but you have to consider how much salmon will be available and thus how many bears will be there in Sept. When does the typical salmon spawning season stop. DON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bears don't care which type they eat 😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwmiller Posted June 19, 2021 #7 Share Posted June 19, 2021 I booked a boat tour to Traitor’s Cove for our 7/24 Holland America cruise. I believe the tour us run by AKHummers. You can check them out as they are operating this year. Bob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
