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 no people.

Having been marooned in Ketchikan by the Alaskan Marine Highways System ferry strike, the only way to reach Canada was by Misty Air. Their booking system was good and there were no hitches. The aircraft was modern and spacious. The flight was excellent, smooth and we were kept informed by our pilot, Dave. Altogether a wonderful experience which managed to restore some of our depression on losing our Alaskan holiday highlights.

We flew in a new Otter turbo prop float plane. Skilled and experienced pilot.Smooth ride, quiet landing on the lake water- simply breathtaking! Guide was knowledgable and helpful during the flight. It was so peaceful on the water. We had a beautiful day. Just wish we could have stayed longer before having to turn around-maybe offer a picnic lunch or snack break- just to extend the time? Appreciated the safety instructions and that they don't fly if the weather is questionable. (We missed... Read MoreWe flew in a new Otter turbo prop float plane.

Appreciated the safety instructions and that they don't fly if the weather is questionable. (We missed out on our tours in Juneau because of the weather there- so we understand the disappointment) Well worth the money- can't think of a better way to see the grandeur of the misty fjords! Highly recommend! More Read Less

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.

This was such an awesome experience! Beautiful! Loved the landing. Our pilot was very nice and made the experience personal!

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

What a great adventure! Beautiful sights! Up close and personal with Misty Fjords. Must do for everyone!

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. 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...

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

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.

Well worth the price. We loved the beautiful float plane ride w our awesome pilot George and beautiful plane. Felt really safe and had a hour plus ride over the magestic preserved mountains to the lodge were we met Mady our awesome host. Our crab feast was the best ever. We will always remember this excursion because Mady' s hospitality was great. We hated to leave. PS. The Alaskan beers were great. Thanks.

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.
