This is a great tour where you see waterfalls, fjords and lakes. The landing on the lake was awesome. Very quiet and peaceful once you stood outside the seaplane. Our pilot was excellent. It was raining in Ketchikan when we left, but the pilot said they have access to cameras in the fjords and said the weather would be better there. And they were right. Glad we took this tour and happy we chose Misty Fjords Air & Outfitting.

Having seen that there were two, recent fatal seaplane accidents in Ketchikan in May of 2019 (with a different airline) we were very nervous about booking anything involving a seaplane. Even my husband, who is an airline captain with nearly 30 years experience was hesitant. We really did our research on this one.

Even my husband, who is an airline captain with nearly 30 years experience was hesitant. We really did our research on this one. This is a family run outfit that since it’s inception in the 80s, has had NO accidents. All of the staff we encountered were extremely professional and friendly. The aircraft and the outfit itself, from what we could tell, was very well maintained. Our pilot, Davey, is a born-in-Ketchikan local, with 23 years of flight experience in the area. He immediately put our nerves at ease with his relaxed manner and knowledge of the area, it’s skies, wildlife and geography. Are these guys a little pricier than the competition? Perhaps. Yet the piece of mind that comes with knowing that your pilot is a full time, experienced local aviator and not a “John Denver,” is beyond priceless; especially during this nationwide pilot shortage. This experience was truly once-in-a-lifetime, pure magic. Thank you!!! More Read Less

I'm a private pilot, but I wanted to explore the beauty of Alaska in a seaplane.
Folks, this is a must while in AK. Our pilot was superb and extremely knowledgeable.
Seeing the beauty from the air, will never be forgotten.
Highly recommend you take this flight.

My experience started out positively by talking with Megan about safety and scheduling, after recent accidents in the area with other companies. We felt confident as our trip rolled around, and were impressed with the efficient and professional operation. When we asked out pilot if we could possibly travel past a spot another plane had spotted bears, he kindly taxied slowly from our mid-flight stop, to attempt a sighting for us. The scenery was serene and breathtaking; it was a memorable excursion.

We really enjoyed this plane ride. Scenery was beautiful and staff was great. It was very expensive though.

Slightly concerned by a drab day with low cloud in Ketchikan, we were assured that conditions in the Fjords would be different and so it proved. We had a great flight with Captain Davy, relaxed, comfortable, informative and highly picturesque. Landing on the Fjord was smooth as silk as were the other take offs and landings. If flight-seeing over Misty Fjords is for you, then we would highly recommend this company.

On a Viking cruise and booked this outing with friends. The company was professional and efficient and our pilot instilled confidence. Because the ceiling was too low the pilot turned around after about 20 minutes in the air (the view was great!) and said we couldn't complete the trip. We were all happy he readily ended the flight in consideration of our safety first. I gave it a 4, only because of the weather. We would use them again if we find ourselves back in Alaska.

We had an amazing trip with Ryan and Alaska Seaplane Adventures. The Misty Fjord landing is like being alone in the wilderness. We were the only plane there and there was total silence. We flew over many waterfalls and miles of trees...and n

An exceptional value compared to the price of every other tour. The views were seriously breathtaking and priceless from the moment you depart, until the time you land. Honestly, the highlight of my trip.

Great flight. It was our first time on a sea plane. Flight was smooth. Pilot Dave was very good at pointing things out during the flight. The views were amazing. Great ways to see the Misty Fjords’ of Alaska.

Excellent Pilot!! Evan gave us a flight of a lifetime!! Beautiful scenery breath taking views of mts rivers and area. Very knowledgeable of area and made us feel very comfortable. Best part of Alaskan vacation. Would recommend this flight and Evan to everyone traveling to Alaska

This was GREAT from start to finish!!!! Absolutely loved this trip. Bring your camera! Every seat has a great view. We even saw some seals when we landed just off shore on the rocks. The landscape was stunning! Our pilot was the best. Great landing and take off, very smooth!
