Fabulous tour through the Tonga rainforest

We had a fabulous drive through the Tongass rainforest. We learned so much about the history of foresting in Alaska. Wonderful scenery and even saw a black bear. And five deer. highly recommend.

A Must-Book Tour with Teague in Ketchikan!

Liel_E, Sep 2023

My mother and I embarked on an Alaskan cruise, and while in Ketchikan, I sought out a unique experience beyond the standard ship offerings. Our decision led us to Teague, who greeted us punctually at the designated spot, holding a sign. To our delightful surprise, it turned out to be an exclusive tour just for us! Our journey took us up the majestic Tongass Mountain, where we were treated to breathtaking views. Teague ensured we had ample opportunities to capture these moments, both inside and outside the vehicle. Not only was he incredibly considerate, especially towards my mother's back issues, ensuring her comfort at every step, but he also drove with utmost care. His vast knowledge and captivating stories about the area enriched our experience manifold. This tour with Teague was the highlight of our trip, and his thoughtful gesture of asking where we'd like to be dropped off was the cherry on top. If you're in Ketchikan, don't miss out on this exceptional tour!
