Paul our guide was very knowledgeable and flexible. He obviously loves his town. He showed us all the sights we requested while cheerfully adapting to any requests. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

Matthew was an excellent host! First he picked us up at the door at the Cruise terminal. We were a group of 10 ( 5 adults & 5 children), He was very knowledgeable and explained everything we needed to know about Ketchikan! He took us everywhere we wanted to go and showed us some must see places in the short period we had there. Although it was a rainy day he made our day sooo worthwhile. The children were very curious and Matthew had answers for all their questions and he has a lot of patience 🤣. He has a large van that can accommodate up to 14 guests and had water & snacks for us. We recommend him 100%!
Greetings from Aruba🇦🇼
Raymondt, Misha and Family!

We had the pleasure of having Matt drive us around Ketchikan Alaska. Matt was great to communicate with and quickly picked up our family at a local shop.
Matt was able to give us an amazing history of the city along with the best places to catch the scenery and pictures.
Matt picked us up in a 14 passenger van that had a speaker system that was easy to hear him throughout the tour. Matt provided us with snacks and drinks along with binoculars. Matt even had a step stool to easily get in and out of the van.
Alaska is an amazing, must see destination and we highly recommend using Matt to see it!!!

Our guide Matthew was very personable and quite knowledgeable about Ketchikan. The sites we saw were amazing, from the Indigenous Totem Bight State Historical Park, the Potlatch Park , beautiful waterfalls and watched with excitement the bears in their natural habitat catch8ng fresh salmon for their dinner.

I booked a 3 hour tour and was able to take 10 people in my family for almost the same price that the cruise tours were offering for one person. Our guide picked half of us up at the Lumberjack show parking lot (we had just gotten out) and then swung by our pier to pick up the rest of the group. He was very friendly and informative about the area. Also he was very attentive to my in-laws which use a cane and walker and helped them in and out of the vehicle which took extra time. He took us to Herring Cove where you can see salmon in the river and we sighted several adult and younger bald eagles. We were hoping to see bears there but they weren't there unfortunately. He then took us to a hidden waterfall right off the road which was really cool. He then took us to Potlatch park which has replicas of native clan houses and totem poles (that was really neat). I was a little disappointed that we didn't get Matthew as our guide because he has such great reviews but his sub did a decent job.

Great experience! Paul was very knowledgeable. Only problem we encountered is that he needed a better microphone so the people in the back of the van could hear him.
