Two and a half hours on the water—jet-boat trip through Chilkat Eagle Preserve, with opportunities to see wildlife followed by a riverside picnic.
This adventure begins with a 30-minute bus ride along the Haines Scenic Byway, where you'll hear stories about the area's history. The journey then takes you deep into the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve via a specially designed jet boat that can navigate the silt-laden channels of the river. You'll cover around 20 miles into the wilderness, where the region is known for its moose habitat, with some chance of spotting bears as well.
Keep your camera at the ready for any wildlife encounters during your boat ride—while sightings cannot be guaranteed, the likelihood is high. After returning to dock, enjoy a picnic right by the riverside before concluding your trip. Remember to dress appropriately for outdoor conditions.

An incredible adventure into the Alaskan wilderness. We had excellent guidance and explored various habitats along the river. We spotted several bears, including a mother with four cubs. The moose was less visible that morning, likely due to the early season. A bald eagle was also sighted. Despite the cold and wet weather, the heavy jackets and blankets kept us comfortable. Ending the trip in the warming tent with a light meal was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend this tour.
The experience was excellently organized, offering a one-of-a-kind chance to immerse oneself in nature. I strongly recommend it. A special note of thanks goes to the lady who drove the bus; she made the journey enjoyable and engaging.
