 SKAGWAY:  Deluxe Bear Viewing with Flight

 

 

 

 

 

 

SKG-341S - Deluxe Bear Viewing with Scenic Flight 

 

 

A Family Friendly Tour

 

This premium tour gives you a chance to experience the best of Alaskan nature. Start your tour in Skagway where you meet your bush pilot to begin your fifty minute glacier flight. You’ll travel above the waterfall-strewn cliffs, peer down at the massive ice towers of the Davidson Icefall, and marvel at the Rainbow Glacier, a hanging glacier with an enormous waterfall pouring from its face.

Land in Haines where you’re met by your experienced naturalist guide.  Travel by comfortable van to Chilkoot Lake State Park, a popular fishing and bear viewing area for local residents. This park has it all, a salmon-filled river flowing into the sea, a pristine lake surrounded by snow-capped peaks, and a healthy brown bear population that comes down to the river in the evening to feed. Beginning in August, the pink salmon are running and the chance of seeing bear increases substantially. Although we cannot guarantee bear, we will make every effort to give you the bear viewing experience of a lifetime. After the bear viewing, you’ll fly back to Skagway to board your ship.

Note: Tour departure time will vary depending on the ship’s scheduled departure time. To maximize your chance of seeing bear, we recommend this tour depart as late in the day as practical while still getting you back to your ship in plenty of time.

Departures begin August 1st

Tour includes: One hour flight time, two and one half hours in Haines. Guided tour as described.
