You’ll land in a remote corner of the Tongass National Forest, where a boardwalk floats you above the mossy floor. When you’re finished exploring, you'll head to the onsite lodge for an Alaskan seafood boil, all your senses in extravaganza mode.
- Float through Alaska's maze-like inlets, your captain pointing out wildlife, including whales
- Step foot into the Tongass National Forest, the largest in the U.S.
- Taste fresh Dungeness crab, Alaskan shrimp, clams, and more local specialties
- Easy meetup with your captain at Ward Cove or downtown Ketchikan

Even though the day was not beautiful, this tour was very well worth it. The scenery was wonderful and informative. The visit to Grant Island and the Silver King Fishing Lodge with the crab feast were phenomenal. We totally enjoyed it. Also is not too far to get to the boat ride from Downtown Ketchikan.

Great experience. Jane was our guide and Trevin was our captain. Both were great. Saw a lot of eagles and harbor seals. Landed for lunch and did a short walk where Jane pointed out some highlights of the Tongrass rainforest climate and growth. Food was delicious. Goog times.

Such a fun experience! We were able to see quite a bit of wildlife on the boat ride, and Emerson, our tour guide, made the experience even more enjoyable!
The hike through the woods was at an easy pace and people have all ages seem to handle it just fine.
The seafood feast was delicious, and took place in the most beautiful setting.
My group highly recommends!

What an amazing experience! We took a 20-25 minute boat ride around the island, and watching them feed the bald eagles fish right from the boat was incredible — getting to see them swoop down up close was unforgettable. The seafood boil afterward was the perfect way to cap it off — fresh, delicious, and plenty of it. Highly recommend this adventure for anyone visiting Alaska!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're delighted to hear your adventure was such a memorable part of your Alaska visit. Seeing bald eagles soaring in and catching fish right near the boat is always an incredible sight, and we're glad it left such a lasting impression. We're also happy you enjoyed the seafood boil—there's nothing better than fresh Alaska seafood after a day on the water! Thank you for your kind recommendation, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for another adventure in the future!

This was a great adventure. The scenery was unbelievable and the feast was outstanding. Getting to see eagles come down to grab fish for supper was special. Our tour guides we knowledgeable and friendly

Ruth_H, May 2026
We had an incredible time on this excursion and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Ketchikan!
Lecia picked us up and drove us to Clover Pass Resort. She was warm, welcoming, and shared so much interesting information about Ketchikan along the way, which made the experience start off on the perfect note.
Once we arrived, we joined Carson for the tour, and he was fantastic! He was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the entire adventure fun from beginning to end. Our captain was equally awesome and helped make the day unforgettable.
Walking through the stunning Tongass National Forest was breathtaking, and seeing the bald eagles up close was absolutely amazing. We also loved spotting the harbor seals—they were such a fun surprise!
To top it all off, we finished the day with a delicious seafood feast that was the perfect ending to an incredible experience.
From the transportation and guides to the wildlife, scenery, and food, we loved everything about this adventure. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful day in Ketchikan!

What a heartwarming review! I have already sent this to the team so they can see it themselves. We sincerely appreciate that you took the time to review us and share your story with others. It makes a huge difference for small companies like ours!
Steven_S, May 2026
The reviews are not wrong, it’s a great tour. Sights and food were excellent, as was Carson our tour guide. Very relaxing, informative and filling.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you so much! I will pass this long to the entire team - I know they will appreciate the kind words.
Said_Z, May 2026
The boat ride is mucho funo and watching eagles feed is pretty cool.
The food is good but would have been better if it was real butter. Cookies were way better than on the cruise ship.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for taking the time to post this kind review! We do understand that clarified butter is not everyone's cup of tea but we appreciate that you liked the meal overall. Thanks for posting!

Corinna_L, May 2026
The forest tour at Ketchikan was amazing but i was expecting big king crabs and i thought it was unlimited
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for posting a review, Corinna. Unfortunately, we do not catch king crab in this region of Alaska - that is further north. We serve Dungeness crab which is the most abundant crab in this region of Alaska and by far the favorite of Alaskans as it's much sweeter than the king. I'm sorry there was a miscommunication regarding the amount we serve - we rarely have guests asking for more as the portions are so large. We appreciate that you took the time to review and hope that you'll visit us again in the future.
Diane_H, Sept 2025
Wonderful! We enjoyed the lunch and the whale watching as well as the eagle feeding. The captain gave us a great ride.

We had a perfect day. Our boat driver Eve made a spectacular tour even better. She was funny and informative and even introduced a new unit of measure. One of the men in our group had his 50th birthday, when noting the trunk size of a Sitka Spruce Tree, she asked ‘Ron’ how big around it was if he tried to measure it with his arm span. They agreed it was about six (Ron’s) and thus introduced a new unit of measure. Other highlights include Great weather (who expects a sunny day when visiting a rain forest), sighting a whale immediately upon boarding the boat. Bald Eagles practically pacing us and showing their fishing skills. Then a nice guided walk thru parts of the world’s largest temperate rain forest followed by a delicious seafood boil. We travelled with a group of 10 friends and made more along the way. Highly recommended. Really great food even for folks that don’t love seafood.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
We now use SIX RON'S as an official measurement around here! Glad you enjoyed your time and we hope to see you back!
Richard_L, Jul 2025
What a great day. Up until then I had only seen a couple of Bald Eagles in the wild. On the cruise out to the Lodge we saw many Eagles. The tour director threw fish out for the Eagles to come swooping and pluck out of the Icy waters just feet from the boat, so amazing. ( none of my pictures from that are not worth posting :( )
On to the Lodge for a walk through the rain forest and seafeast. The forest looked to be out of some enchanted time with fairies and elves hiding from view.
The feast was next and that is exactly what it was. Crab,clams, mussels,shrimp,corn on the cob and sausages. If you went away hungry that was on you. If you are thinking about this excursion I highly recommend it.

Great boat ride then short walk to grand old tree. Moss is covered everywhere and quite beautiful. Seafood feast was delicious. We were well taken care of plus commentary on the boat was interesting as well as funny stories too.
Sherri_K, Jun 2024
Crab lunch was great. Nicely paced boat ride to the lodge. Good narration. Lovely rainforest walk. Candy made sure we got back to the ship on time.
Richard_T, May 2024
Wonderful excursion! We would do it again! The boat ride was fun and educational. Our tour guide did a great job. The seafood feast was yummy.
Kelly_M, May 2024
It was a very nice trip, easy and enjoyable. We had one whale sighting (saw the tail, haha) and almost guaranteed you’ll get a close up of eagles. Nature walk was nice, all on boarded planks so wheelchair accessible. Not for someone looking for a vigorous hike but very pretty. Food was yummy!
Heather_C, May 2024
The staff were all very friendly. Gus, our driver, was very engaged. Even though there was an accident involving one of the other busses, they ensured we were able to complete our full excursion and got us back to our cruise ship in plenty of time. Bridger, the guide, dropped several tidbits of information. The seafood boil lunch at the Silver King Lodge was tasty and SO filling. The walking tour of the Frank Hendershot Memorial Trail was stunning. So glad we were able to enjoy that. We also spotted some seals on our back tour before we got back to the docks, which is apparently a rare encounter.
Marilyn_S, Jul 2023
From the moment that Candi agreed to accommodate me when I needed to change my tour time, in order to get my flight, I knew that I was in great company! She and her cute dog drove out of their way to pick me up because there would be no bus available for my new time. When I arrived at the tour site, I was treated like a dear friend. They were so hospitable as we waited for the tour to start.
Speaking of the tour, Justin was fantastic! He was so knowledgeable, funny, energetic and personable! I don't know how he did it but he made everyone feel equally important. As we traveled by boat out to the Silver Lodge, he gave us great information about the sites as we passed them. He pointed out an eagle's nest; talked about the submarine testing site as we passed by; and pointed out a crowd of seals! Captain Sonny was very accommodating as he slowed down and sped up in perfect harmony with Justin's monologs.
We walked an easy hike through the Lodge backwoods, on a wooden boardwalk. Then, oh my, that seafood! It was fantastic!
On the way back to our start, we saw a seal eating fish near the dock! That was a bonus moment to end with!!
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Thank you, Marilyn! You ARE a dear friend - it was wonderful getting to know you and spend a little time with you. We wish you nothing but FUN on all your journeys to come and hope that our paths cross again one day!
All the best from Shauna and the entire Adventure Ketchikan team
Billy_L, Jul 2023
Changed our scheduled time to an earlier time to close to our ship arrival for us to make it on time. Even though we called and notified tour we might be late we were left behind after being told they would wait. We were only 10 minutes late and called several times letting them know our status in getting to shore.
Response from Host, Jul 2023
I'm so sorry you were unable to get to the meeting location in time for the departure. We did delay the other 44 guests as long as possible but it is imperative that we stay on schedule and a delay of just 15 minutes can cause some guests to miss their all aboard time post tour. We must consider all guests in every scenario, as I'm sure you can understand.
While we do appreciate your disappointment in not being able to get to the tour, it is unfortunate that you have chosen to review us when you did not actually experience the tour. Also, your money was refunded in full immediately.
Hopefully you were able to do something enjoyable during your day in Ketchikan as there are so many choices in our beautiful little town.
All the best
