Overview
Board your spacious cabin that can accommodate a maximum of 10 guests. The newest seaplane addition is the DeHavilland Turbo Otter, it is perfect for flightseeing to the Misty Fjords. Each guest will have a window with a panoramic view.
Sit back and settle in as you take in the views over the vast 2.3 million acres of rugged wilderness, awe-inspiring geography and spectacular beauty. This pristine country is considered to be one of the last untouched landscapes on the planet. It has been called The Grand Canyon of the North and is, simply put, breathtaking. Your trip to the Misty Fjords will take you away from crowds and will amaze you with its secluded serenity, and ironically its close proximity to the urban life of Ketchikan.
Upon arrival at the seaplane base, you will be greeted by your Pilot who will personally assist you aboard your aircraft. After takeoff, your flight will pass through Ketchikan airspace and take you over the vast expanse of Revillagegedo Island and the Tongass National Forest enroute to the Misty Fjords. During the flight you'll likely spot a variety of wildlife in their natural environment.
Your Executive Class Seaplane features an onboard audio entertainment system that includes ANR (active noise reduction) headsets to block out engine sounds, as well as voice-activated microphones for verbal communication with the pilot and fellow passengers. Your Pilot will provide narration on this popular shore excursion.
Join us on this once-in-a-lifetime experience and fly to the Misty Fjords National Monument. This pristine country is considered to be one of the last untouched landscapes on the planet and is guaranteed to overwhelm your senses.
