Creator's Key Takeaways

This tour cost, let me check for you. Okay, it's $199 per person if you book early.

I am now extremely excited about sea planes. I think I'm still a little bit nervous to take some of those flighting adventures over to Misty Fjords in Ketchacan, but this one in Juno was 10 out of 10. Wonderful. Absolutely loved it.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book Alaska excursions early to avoid sell-outs and higher prices.
✓Bring your passport for tours crossing into Canada.
✓Avoid big bus tours if you prefer a more intimate experience.
