HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TOUR - These tours are a great way to see the fabulous nature in Ketchikan. If you are looking for a gentle hike in a lush rainforest, guided by an expert in flora and fauna, this is it! I know that this is a privately owned company - I have actually done the tour TWICE and both times were fantastic! Yes, the second time we did see a bear, and the guide took great care during that remarkable, safe, encounter. AMAZING! p.s. I am sure that bears are not guaranteed on this tour!

Best Cruise shore excursion on our cruise. - I found this tour myself. It wasn't one on the cruise ship's list. It was the most interesting tours we did on our cruise and with a small group it was so much nicer. Zack was our driver and guide...very knowledgeable and just an all around fun nice guy. Excellent !

Loved Wild Wolf Tours! - Austin was such a knowledgeable guide. I had no idea that Tracy, the owner of Wild Wolf Tours, has Native Alaskan background and therefore has trained her guides on not just general knowledge but personalized knowledge based on her background and heritage. It was also great to learn more from Austin whose family is local to Alaska and also has native Alaskan heritage. It was a very special tour to be able to learn in addition to see sights. Highly recommend!

Rainforest and Totem adventure. Don’t miss it! - Fabulous tour! Zach is an incredible guide with a wealth of knowledge about the rain forest ecology that he eagerly shared with us. Passionate and engaging, he went the extra mile every moment to make sure we we had a superlative adventure. His knowledge and respect for the totems at the park was also exemplary. I highly recommend this tour!

The perfect day - Such a great excursion from start to finish. Austin was an excellent guide: he was super personable and knowledgeable. In addition to the interesting facts and insights we learned from him about the totems and the area, we saw a lot of wild life. We were fortunate to see bald eagles, sea lions, and a rare sighting of a mama bear catching a salmon for her cubs(from a safe distance and location). Thank you for such a memorable day!

educational and guide was enjoyable. kept things moving and interesting - Learned a lot about the rainforest and the wildlife within. Learned about the Salmon swimming upstream and their life cycles. Did not get a snack as indicated and your was cut short because a guest was cold.

Rain forest walk with totem pole park - Walk thru the rainforest was not difficult though was vigorous. The path is well travelled but if was actively raining might pose a bit of a struggle. Ended at a small waterfall where the salmon were jumping in their effort to go upstream. The Totem pole park was great and Jeff’s knowledge of both the rainforest and the totem poles was great. Enjoyed it very much

Fantastic HIKE and Totem Park visit! - Excellent tour! Only 12 people so nice size for a group. Tons of information and fabulous HIKE and Totem park visit. My only complaint is that our guide didn't slow down and let people take photos, etc. He would talk about something, pointing at it, then turn around and start walking again. If you wanted a photo, you had to take it quickly then rush to catch up again.

a bit disappointed - The guide was very knowledgeable of the surroundings. We did NOT receive our salmon and and crackers snack as stated when we signed up. I feel the tour was cut short because one of the guests were not properly dressed. The rest of us should not have been shorted due to poor planning of another guest.
