This was the highlight of our trip, mainly due to our guide Garrett. His passion for his work truly enhanced our experience, especially with the exciting sighting of bears and cubs. We felt secure throughout, and his insights added to the adventure. I would recommend it to anyone seeking an unforgettable experience.
We received a wealth of information and had some animal sightings during our trip. While we understood that sightings aren't guaranteed, we were lucky to see brown bears, bald eagles, and scoters. Additionally, we gained insight into the local area, observed hanging glaciers, and learned about geology, history, flora, and fauna. Having Chad as our guide truly enhanced our experience.
Our guide was excellent and kept working hard to help us spot the bears. We also saw eagles and beautiful sockeye salmon. The highlight was watching a mother bear and her four cubs playing in the water.
My wife and I had a fantastic day along with another couple. Our guide, Karla, was excellent, sharing the area's history. We captured stunning photos of the lake, and the highlight was photographing a brown bear with her cubs.
I enjoy going on tours with this company. Their buses are smaller than those used by standard cruise excursions, which allows for a more intimate experience. Our guide was able to deviate from the scripted tour when exciting things occurred, and that’s exactly what happened. We participated in the chill Chilkut Wilderness tour in Haines, Alaska, with Rainbow Tours. Our guide was friendly and well-informed. We saw numerous seabirds and even some eagles. Then, we arrived at the ideal location — a fast-running stream teeming with salmon. Suddenly, a beautiful juvenile brown bear emerged, playing in the stream while searching for fish. It casually strolled back and forth in front of us for over 20 minutes, posing for photos. It was an unforgettable experience.
This was one of the most exceptional guided tours we've experienced. Katherine led our intimate group through Haines and alongside a river teeming with brown bears and eagles. Her passion and understanding of nature shine as she shares insights about the local wildlife. This tour is definitely worth the investment.
I want to extend my gratitude to Garrett for the coach tour from our cruise ship. His respect for wildlife, along with his knowledge and enthusiasm, really stood out. We were fortunate enough to see several brown bears, creating a memorable experience that I will cherish forever.
The experience was enjoyable, traveling in an old bus with several stops focused on wildlife viewing. I particularly appreciated the beauty of Chilkoot River and Lake, and it was great to observe the brown bears in their natural habitat.
The tour was fantastic! We enjoyed a private experience because our daughter needed a car seat. We spotted eagles and made several stops for stunning views. It was a wonderful day.
This was an excellent tour! It was a fantastic day spent observing humpback whales, eagles, and sea lions, along with many hooligans. A big thank you to Karla, Katt, and Grace for their knowledge and passion for nature.
