Eagle Preserve Rafting & Wildlife Quest
Moderate Activity
Includes meal
Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.
Your tour begins as you board your motorcoach for a scenic, narrated drive to the "Valley of the Eagles." En route, you'll see Fort William H. Seward, the first permanent U.S. Army outpost in Alaska and a National Historic Site.
A relaxing 40-minute drive up the Haines Highway, a National Scenic Byway, brings you to the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve. Along the way, watch for moose and swans in the marshlands as you head up the Chilkat River Valley.
At the preserve, experienced guides await to begin your rafting adventure (not whitewater). You'll float silently down the river aboard 18' inflatable rafts - the best way to observe eagles drawn to feed on the plentiful salmon. Bears and wolves are also frequent guests at the feast. Not only rich in wildlife, the preserve is also a place of incredible beauty, with breathtaking views of the fjord, towering mountains, hanging glaciers and lush forests.
After your float, you'll enjoy a riverside lunch. Your tour concludes with a relaxing drive back to the pier and a myriad of unforgettable memories.
