Best Tour So Far on our Cruise! Sid was AMAZING!! - We told Sid what we wanted to see and she knew exactly where to go and took us there, it was amazing! Also, her extreme knowledge of the culture and history was spectacular! She even sand us a lullaby popular with the indigenous people. She was also just so down to earth and easy to talk to. She also tried to catch a salmon with her bare hands which was entertaining and fun! We will be recommending this tour to everyone we know! Thank you all for an amazing time exploring Ketchikan! And the food recommendation she gave us was amazing!!

Native Tours led us to a bear sighting - Our driver and tour guide, Sid, was wonderful. She had a custom trip all lined up for us to see wild life. After our first two stops where we did not see much, she took us to Lunch Creek Trail at Settlers Cove. There was took a short but beautiful hike through the rainforest to the beach. Saw a waterfall and salmon. On our way back to the van we saw a bear eating a salmon. Sid was was super accommodating and very knowledgeable about the local culture. We had a wonderful time.

Great opportunity for a private, guided tour of Ketchikan! - For our port stop in Ketchikan, we decided to book a private tour for our multi-generational party of 6. Since some members were elderly, we thought a guided sight-seeing trip would be good for all. We were met right at the dock by our driver, Kevin, who also turned out to be the owner of the tour company. That day, Ketchikan lived up to its reputation as the rainiest city in the US, so we were very thankful to be in a warm, dry van! Kevin was born and raised in Ketchikan, so he was very knowledgeable about the area and its history. Being Tlingit, he was also so informative about the indigenous culture and people. He took us from one end of the highway to the other (Ketchikan is only accessible by boat or plane), so we got to see the entire area. We had a quick stop at one of the many waterfalls, and got to visit Totem Bight Park, where we were about the only ones there! Kevin explained the meaning of the totems and shared some of the stories. The nice thing about a private tour is that you can see whatever you want to see. Unfortunately because of the rain, it was not a day to be out and about, so we mainly saw the sights from the van, but I am so glad we got to get outside the port area and learn so much about the history and culture!

Authentic Native Tours - Born and raised in Alaska. Melissa is an ambassador for the Tlinget, Tsimshian, and Haida Culture and heritage. She’s knowledgeable about the traditions and culture. Kevin’s professional and engaging. Overall I would highly recommend this tour.
