    Once in a Lifetime Experience

    Michelle_J, Aug 2025
    Our experience with Tom was incredible. He took us all over Haines and showed us all the hot spots. We had the best halibut fish and chips ever at one of the local restraints. Our highlight was the scenery and our incredible encounter with Lulu the big brown bear with fou cubs. We watched them swim and fish in the river. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience.. thank you so much, Tom. You are full of knowledge and humor. We immensely enjoyed ourselves. Would 1000% recommend this tour.

    Take the ferry to Haines!

    Haines from Skagway is a must! Easy ferry schedule. Tom was amazing and knowledgeable about everything Haines has to offer. He knows the local spots and locals who own the property for the best eagle and bear viewing!!

    Great Haines opportunity!

    Tom was a very knowledgeable photographer that took us to really interesting locations for amazing photos! We spent an hour photographing a mom brown bear with cubs having lunch on salmon. I would give him 10 stars however we are limited to 5! BTW…it was raining the entire time. Don’t be frighten as the animals don’t care. Thanks Tom for a great day:) Kim&Bob
