We took this tour as part of our Celebrity cruise. We had warm sunny weather. Be advised that there is no AC in these planes. you must be agile to climb in and out of the plane.
Very organized from start to finish. Nice but small waiting area with a variety of gifts to purchase. We had a very knowledgeable pilot. We landed on the the water and able to walk out onto the float of the plane while on the fjord.... Read MoreWe took this tour as part of our Celebrity cruise. We had warm sunny weather.

Although not as breathtaking or awesome as the "5-Glacier Seaplane Exploration" flight we took a couple of days before from Juneau (with Wings Airways), the Misty Fjords Seaplane Tour was absolutely beautiful. With 2 mishaps involving 3 other company's aircraft within the 2 months before (resulting in several deaths), we were a little apprehensive. Our apprehension wasn't helped when we were informed that our flight would go ahead notwithstanding the very low clouds and light rain, or by the casual atmosphere that seems to permeate...

With 2 mishaps involving 3 other company's aircraft within the 2 months before (resulting in several deaths), we were a little apprehensive. Our apprehension wasn't helped when we were informed that our flight would go ahead notwithstanding the very low clouds and light rain, or by the casual atmosphere that seems to permeate the organization - from the counter agent, to the aircraft facility (a single hanger with the only accommodation for passengers being a port-a-pottie), to the pilot. (By contrast, Wings Airways in Juneau was far more organized and polished.) But we learned that what appeared to be casual was really confidence born of experience. The organization had never had a mishap in their 30 years of business, and our pilot had been flying in Alaska for much longer than that. Although not as polished as Wings Airways, we felt very safe with Misty Fjords Air and Outfitting. The flight was awesome. While the term "fjord" may be technically accurate, what you see is a significantly scaled-down version of the Norwegian fjords that likely come to mind. Still, the scenery is spectacular. We landed on one of the fjords and spent about 20 minutes on a floating dock just enjoying the surroundings. Highly recommended - this is...

Totally awesome experience. Very cool airplane and lots of beautiful sights. Height of my trip. Our pilot, Van was very professional and cool!

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.

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

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!

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

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.

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.

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

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.
