"Hi Skagway FT. I heard from (friends she recommended to us) and they had a wonderful time with your float tour.  Thank you for making it so special. Sure wish I were back up there floating on the river."

"Oh My Goodness...my friend and I had the most amazing time floating down the river.  We loved seeing the Eagles, the otters, and all the beauty of the river.  The smoked salmon & snacks after the float were delicious; what a generous touch.  I would highly recommend this for a lazy day in the Alaska beauty, with smart, local tour guides."

"We had a FABULOUS tour. The hike was exciting and just as you described. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the local flora and fauna and we really learned a lot while enjoying outdoors in Alaska. The rafting was fun and the snacks were an extra special treat. Thanks for the great tour! I have some friends visiting and I'm going to recommend she take the trip."

"We had a great time in Alaska and the highlight for both me and my kids was the hike and float. The kids particularly loved the hike (our guide, Bob, was wonderful and my son hung on his every word) and I absolutely loved the river ride. I think my husband's favorite part was the salmon snack following the float!"
