Season: April—October $100+ 3-4 hrs

South­east Alas­ka is home to the Ton­gass Nation­al For­est, where near­ly 17 mil­lion acres of glac­i­ers, moun­tains, rivers, and fjords com­ple­ment old-growth forests of spruce, cedar, and hem­lock. Walk among these giant sen­tinels, some well over 500 years old, and breathe in the pris­tine air that they pro­vide in one of North America’s largest car­bon sinks. Expe­ri­ence this world-renowned gem of a rain­for­est on a guid­ed hike or an SUV tour when you stop  ...more

Season: Year Round $550+ per group (up to 11) 90 mins - 4 hrs

Lots of com­pa­nies offer sight­see­ing tours in Ketchikan, but Emer­ald For­est Tours runs only pri­vate, cus­tom tours to ensure you get the inside scoop on this fas­ci­nat­ing Alaskan city. On board an 11-pas­sen­ger van, you’ll head out to stops where you’ll have a chance to see bears, water­falls, inter­tidal life, and Sax­man Native Vil­lage. They also offer win­ter­time tours, as well as tours in Span­ish (which you won’t find else­where in Ketchikan). 

Explor­ing Ketchikan on foot is not only pos­si­ble, but is one of the best things you can do giv­en an hour and a half in town.
