Everything was tailored to us, he picked us up at the house we rented soon after arriving from airport for half day tour to Le Conte glacier. We have an 11 and 16 year old and spend as much time as we wanted to watch the animals around the glacier and look for all the baby seals!. We then did a full day which is supposed to be 8 hrs and he made it 11 because we wanted to keep on going. We went kayaking to a beautiful isolated spot (felt super safe with his knowledge) and then whale watching at Frederick sound. He searched for the best spots to see multiple whales, sea lions, seals and great spots for the kids to spot other sea life. He was so kind and thoughtful, he took us to get groceries before they closed the shops, took is to get breakfast and coffee in am and then let us use some of his cookware to use at the place we rented to cook a perfect salmon. He also let me borrow his personal jacket and boots because part of my luggage was lost. Just amazing customer service and wonderful experience. Will be back !!!

Veterans of 13 voyages with Alaska Sea Adventures (ASA), if my husband and I could live on the boat we would! Immerse yourself in the vast Southeast Alaskan wilderness with anchorages in tranquil bays, the silence of the great outdoors broken only by sweet bird calls; observe humpback whales for hours without elbowing for position through crowds of tourists at the railing; enjoy an entire day exploring a glacier-carved fjord, finally arriving at the face of a magnificent tidewater glacier to view it for hours while the glacier rumbles and thunderously calves. Alaska Sea Adventures is tailor made for those who seek the soul of Southeast Alaska. Captain Dennis Rogers, owner and captain of ASA's beautiful yacht, Northern Song and his business partner & wife, Toni are terrific. Friendly and efficient, from the moment Toni greets arriving ASA passengers with a warm Alaska-sized hello, one feels part of the extended ASA family. Captain Rogers displays a deep respect for his home state as well as the wildlife he so proudly introduces to his guests. On all of our voyages Captain Rogers has exhibited the utmost in friendly courtesy toward his guests, doing all he can to grant passenger requests to assure them of a wonderful voyage. A great many of the people we have met on board Northern Song are frequent repeat guests, people with whom we have remained in touch with and sailed with often over the years. Cornerstones of a successful, well run business, repeat happy clients speak volumes about the excellent service, friendliness and hospitality exhibited by Captain Rogers and his crew. A beautiful yacht, the Northern Song offers four cabins that house a maximum of eight guests on board the boat. Three cabins offer comfortable bunk beds while the Master Suite has one bed. A huge plus is that each cabin is en suite (has a private bathroom and shower). One can charter the Northern Song for a family or group or participate in various other specialty voyages. Examples of these include weeklong pro-photographer-led photography workshops, fascinating whale research expeditions led by humpback whale biologists, Summer Focus on Whales voyages with humpback whale naturalists/biologists, late Fall pre-migration humpback whale-focused trips, and my personal favorite, fascinating Spring herring spawn trips. My husband and I have participated in each one of these specialty voyages multiple times. Each voyage offers unforgettable experiences that keep us wanting more. I appreciate a spotlessly clean ship. Captain Rogers carefully---no, make that lovingly---tends to his beautifully maintained ship. Throughout the state it is the custom in Alaska for one to remove their shoes when entering a home, B&B and often a lodge. This is also the custom on board the Northern Song. Tracking in salt from the deck or sand, pebbles and rain forest detritus ruins carpets. If one does not bring along suggested footwear, Captain Rogers thoughtfully provides comfortable shoes (ala Croc-type footgear) for use on deck and indoor spaces plus he also has a handy supply of knee high waterproof boots for guest use on skiff and shore excursions. Alaska Sea Adventures offers a quality wildlife adventure, spending long leisurely hours observing humpback whales, orcas, eagles, bears and other SE Alaskan animals. Captain Rogers always is considerate toward photographers on board, expertly positioning the Northern Song for best light and photographic angles. The Northern Song offers excellent diverse platforms from which to nab superb wildlife images of a lifetime. Guests can easily spread out; there is always plenty of room. On most voyages shore visits are arranged for beach combing or short nature walks. During summertime Focus on Whale trips a visit is scheduled to a salmon hatchery stream in a Native village to observe bald eagles and black bears fishing for salmon returning to spawn. It's just you, the salmon, the lush rain forest and the bears. Other activities may include viewing wildlife from the Northern Song's two skiffs or kayaking the waters of a quiet cove. Nights are spent anchored in the solitude of a quiet bay, often with towering snowcapped mountains visible nearby. Your only company will be bald eagles, Steller sea lions, harbor seals and sea otters. One is so close to the rainforest that one can smell the invigorating scent of spruce on shore mingling with the fresh clean salty tang of the sea. Meals on board the Northern Song are excellent with heavy emphasis on Alaskan fish and shellfish. It's a treat to dine on expertly grilled flavorful wild salmon, freshly harvested spot prawns and luscious buttery black cod. If you are searching for a memorable Southeast Alaska voyage, look no further than Alaska Sea Adventures for the experience of a lifetime.

Complete attention to detail and guest experience from beginning to end... Comfort and enjoyment were paramount. The captain and crew know exactly what their guests need to experience. Chef Alisa, oh my, delicious will not describe her culinary skills. one needs to let their pallet be the judge. Fishing, crabbing, hiking and sightseeing without ever feeling rushed. All I can say is you need to do this at least once. But I can't lie will look forward to this experience again. TonyP

Captain Miguel did a fantastic job navigating both on land and on the water. You could tell he really knows what he's doing, and his confidence behind the wheel (and at the helm!) made the whole experience feel smooth and safe. Tracy was an absolute delight -- knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about Ketchikan. She kept everyone entertained and informed throughout the entire tour. The moment we hit the water was truly special. There's nothing quite like the thrill of a duck boat splashing into the bay! And the bald eagles -- wow. I lost count of how many we spotted. Seeing these majestic birds up close in their natural habitat was something I'll never forget. If you're visiting Ketchikan, do yourself a favor and book this tour. It's perfect for families, couples, or anyone who wants a unique and memorable way to explore this beautiful part of Alaska. We're already talking about coming back!

Great experience!!!!…read more Booked with them directly instead of the cruise ship. Yes, I'm like most don't want to risk getting left.... however, if you plan it right by shuttling downtown shortly after docking and book an early tour, it certainly works out and saves you money. Stacy called me first thing in the morning and wisely moved my tour up 1/2 hour since NCL was casting off ridiculously early. That was very kind of her and shows the forethought of the company, because they didn't have to do that. Could've reasoned... "that's the time you booked, oh well." But that really says alot about them. Great tour, friendly and well trained staff. Highly recommend!!
