Chilkat River Adventures

Chilkat River Adventures is locally owned and operated in Haines and Skagway.

We have been guiding visitors on the rivers, oceans, mountains, roadways and trails of the Upper Lynn Canal for over 30 years.  We are the premier local tour operator with offices in both Skagway and Haines and over 70 exceptional guides on staff across our wide array of exceptional programs.

We place a premium on our guests’ experience. With over 30 years in the industry, every trip that we lead draws on the extensive experience of countless expeditions in Alaska and around the world. Our guides and staff bring this experience and enthusiasm for Alaska to each and every tour that we operate. Our leaders are committed professionals who are exemplary guides and instructors. We are dedicated to insuring our guests an experience that exceeds their expectations!

This passion for introducing our guests to the activities that we love has been recognized widely.  For example, Princess Cruise Line has awarded Chilkat Guides and Alaska Mountain Guides Tour of the Year honors 12 times since 2000.

Environmental Commitment.

We are committed to working locally to improve the social, economic, and environmental well-being of our community. We work together with our partners to run programs that bring the heritage of the local communities to our guests, showcasing Alaska’s natural resources. As a company, we are dedicated to the importance in safeguarding Alaska’s natural and cultural resources. Through our programs, we teach the importance of environmental conservation and minimizing impacts. We believe strongly that through education and appreciation, we can cultivate a sense of stewardship for the environment among our team and our guests. Our goal is to leave the world a better place for future generations.
