• A wonderful experience with guide, Joe

  We had a private kayaking experience with our guide, Joe. He was friendly and professional and knowledgeable about the wildlife and plants in the area. He reviewed some safety issues with kayaking and we set off in a tandem kayak. My daughter and I had kayaked before which was helpful. At the end of our kayaking experience Joe provided a snack in the picnic area at the lake. He also gave us a tour of the town of Haines before taking us to the fast ferry. I highly recommend this excursion!

• A Day We’ll Never Forget on Chilkoot Lake

  My wife and I had an unforgettable kayaking experience on Chilkoot Lake. The weather was perfect—clear skies and calm waters—and we had the entire lake to ourselves, which made it feel truly magical. Our guide, Joe, was fantastic: friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the area. His insights added so much depth to the adventure. If you're looking for outdoor activities in Alaska, we highly recommend booking with SEAK Expeditions.

  

• Beautiful morning on the lake

  We had a FANTASTIC morning with Joe. We got lucky, and it was a sunny day with just my wife and I attending, so Joe was able to give us all of his attention. Answered all our questions, gave us info we didn’t even know we needed, and had everything perfectly prepared for us. He let us set the pace as we paddled around the lake, got to know us a bit, and set a perfect tone the whole time. When we finished, he had a great snack spread for us, and gave us a little bit of a tour on the way back to the ferry. Couldn’t have asked for more.

  This was one of the highlights of our entire trip to Alaska. The views were gorgeous and our guides, Sophie and Annie were super friendly and knowledgeable. There are bathrooms on site and we were picked up right at the ferry port. We saw tons of bald eagles and we were the only ones on the lake so it was quiet and serene. Could not recommend this tour enough.

  

  

  

• Rough waters but had a great time!

  Our tour guides Kay, Erin, and Karly were fantastic! Josh and Jake were also helpful getting us out on the lake. It would have been a wonderful kayaking experience if it wasn't my first time. There was rough waters the day we went and being inexperience it was a lot harder for my husband and I to maneuver but Kay was helpful getting us out of the rough water and along the shore when we drifted out further on the lake. The food was fantastic at the end and was right off the shore where our ship was docked.

• Great day on the water!

  This was a great small group tour. Joe was knowledgeable, balanced our group well despite differing experience levels, and made it a very fun day. The kayaking was peaceful in a stunning spot; it was a completely different experience being so close to the water. Highly recommend!

  Very well organised tour with comprehensive guiding through all adventure. Young lady guide (sorry don’t remember Her name) told us Haines history, showed best spots during bus transfer and kayaking experience was very interesting and fun.

  

  

  

• Good but room for improvement! Didn't get picked up at the end :(

  My girlfriend and I booked this excursion, and it was her "must do" while on our cruise to Alaska. She was excited the most to do this. It was good but definitely has some room for improvement! We got picked up on time and then took a short bus ride to get on the boat/ferry which was about 45-minute ride to the lake. Upon arriving at the lake there was a total of 6 of us on the kayak experience and we got a brief safety briefing (which as good) but we were offered no water or snack -didn't have any available which for the price for the excursion we paid I thought was poor!!!! It was the most expensive excursion we signed up even more so than whale watching and not sure why!!!! I mean what did we pay so much for? We put our kayaks in the water and did all the work. The guide didn't stay right with us he was often further ahead talking to the others. So it wasn't like we were getting history "talk/history" lesson. We did get to hike for a couple hours which was nice but again it was a nice sunny day and having the water would have been a nice perk. At the end, we got back on the bus and road back to the ferry drop off and NEVER got picked back up to take us to the cruise port. LUCKILY, we had time to walk it back otherwise then we would have been hustling since we waited around for a bit on our pickup. It was nice to do and experience as the mountains were beautiful but definitely needs some improvement!

  Jeff & Joe (our guides and drivers) were very professional and thorough throughout the day. We met up with them after a pleasant and scenic “fast ferry” ride to Haines. Starting with safety through equipment use and navigating the lake, they were super helpful. The lake itself (glacier fed) and surrounding area are spectacular and are within a state park. We were lucky enough to see a moose snacking at the shoreline and grabbed some good pictures. Bring bug spray since it is almost impossible to swat and paddle at times. I highly recommend this tour.

• Fantastic experience!

  Highly recommend this lovely adventure. Joe our guide and the SEAK owner was professional, kind and knowledgeable. Scenery very picturesque and serene. Activity level was relatively easy for active 60 old people. Thank you Joe!
