The Experience
What your day looks like
Fill your senses with adventure and excitement as you take control of an automatic 4-wheel drive Jeep Wrangler® and wind your way through the rugged back roads of Revillagigedo Island, then grab a paddle and join your companions for an authentic Alaskan canoe experience. For the Jeep® portion of this safari adventure, you will join up to three other guests, with plenty of opportunities to change drivers for those who want to get behind the wheel! While you traverse the mountain roads of the Tongass National Forest, your guide provides you with interesting and informative commentary using a two-way radio. You'll be fascinated by the area's natural history as you pass through old growth and new growth forests and stop for magnificent views and photo opportunities along the way. The Jeep® portion of your tour concludes with your arrival at Lake Harriet Hunt. Here, you'll experience a unique ecosystem from the vantage point of a 37-foot, Alaska Native-style canoe. These traditional Alaskan canoes are fast, stable, and easy to maneuver. Once on the other side of the lake, your expert guide will lead you to a camp on the shore where an Alaskan snack awaits. Next, your guide will interpret the features of temperate rainforests on a nature walk through the old-growth forest. Your excursion concludes with a scenic motorcoach drive back to the pier.

Jeep part was great. Snacks were great. Canoe was a little challenging. Canoe tour guide was fun and friendly but was very new so she didn't have the training yet to steer the canoe and didn't give us any knowledge of the area. I'm sure her next tours will be great after a little training.
