It was fun. They took us to a beautiful lake up in the mountains. You are in a big canoe with about 10 other people and a guide. You paddle around the lake then stop and a short hike through the rainforest…the HUGE trees were amazing. ~ CruiseCritic Review

The adventure begins with a scenic motorcoach tour to a secluded mountain lake nestled within the Tongass, the nation’s largest national forest. Board authentic Alaska Native-style canoes; these 37-foot, 20 passenger, traditional Alaskan canoes are fast, stable, and easy to maneuver. Paddle through lush rainforest under the direction of an experienced guide while scanning the shore for wildlife and learning about the unique natural and cultural history of the Ketchikan area. Step ashore for an Alaskan-style snack. A knowledgeable guide will lead a short nature walk highlighting the flora and fauna of the rainforest, including a carnivorous plant, the Sundew, which uses tentacles with an adhesive “dew” to ensnare small insects. Finally, paddle back to the canoe dock to reboard your motorcoach, returning to the cruise ship pier.
