Cruise Port Guide
The bucket-list things to do — and the private, expert-led way to do each.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, and the private, small-group, or expert-led way to make it yours — your own pace, real access, none of the crowd.
Soar over the granite walls and mirror-still lakes of Misty Fjords National Monument — one of America's most dramatic wilderness areas — in a floatplane that lands on a remote alpine lake. A true once-in-a-lifetime perspective of Southeast Alaska's primeval grandeur.
Charter an intimate vessel exclusively for your group to cruise deep into the Behm Canal and Misty Fjords National Monument — a UNESCO-calibre wilderness of waterfalls, sea stacks, and bald eagles accessible only by water. Unhurried, unscripted, and gloriously private.
Paddle the pristine tidal waters of the Behm Canal in a small-group guided sea kayak expedition, threading through sea caves and kelp gardens beneath walls draped in old-growth rainforest. One of the most intimate wildlife encounters in all of Alaska.
Fish the legendary salmon-rich waters of the Behm Canal aboard a private guided sportfishing charter — targeting King (Chinook) Salmon, Silver Salmon, and halibut in one of the most productive fisheries in Southeast Alaska. The ultimate Alaskan bragging right.
Explore Ketchikan's extraordinary Tlingit and Haida totem poles with an Indigenous cultural guide who decodes the stories, clans, and cosmology carved into each ancient cedar pole. A profound, intimate encounter with one of the world's great living art traditions.
Trek deep into the Tongass National Forest — the largest temperate rainforest on Earth — with a certified naturalist guide along old-growth trails bordering the Behm Canal watershed. Bears, eagles, and ancient trees await just minutes from the waterfront.
