It’s amazing. I can highly recommend the tour. It’s stunning. Friendly stuff. The pilot explained gave us a lot of knowledge about the area and wildlife.

We flew from Prince Rupert to Ketchikan with Misty Fjords Air because the AMHS Ferry employees striked. We had a wonderful time on board of this brilliant air plane. The pilot was super friendly and we had an amazing flight over a beautiful landscape. The airplane flew low so we could always see the ground.

We flew out on a trip with Misty Fjords earlier this month, and I can't say enough good things about the whole operation. Everything was top notch including the communication, the planes, the pilot, the flight, and the staff, and the way they really wanted to help my buddy and I have a great trip from start to finish. I recommend them to anyone, and will use them again on my next trip.

I have been using various float plane operators out of Ketchikan for 20yrs now and Misty Fjords has become my go to place. They are professional, accommodating and fun to fly with.

Just wanted to say "THANK YOU", dear Misty Fjords Air for my unforgettable and amazing experience. It was pre-Birthday gift to myself and the very first flight on a seaplane. The whole team was super friendly and professional: Duane, Riley and Izzy, thank you so very much!

We’ve been flying with Misty Fjords Air for over 10 years, and they never disappoint. Each experience has been nothing short of spectacular, offering access to some of the most breathtaking and remote vantage points around Ketchikan. On our most recent flight, the pilot was absolutely phenomenal and professional, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the region. This is one of the best ways to take in the natural beauty of Alaska, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Ketchikan. Truly unforgettable!

Great ride, made up for the lack of ferry service from BC to SE AK! Smooth flight, nice pilot, decent price.
