    We went on the same tour again last year, and saw some bears. We made another video: “Spasski River Bear Search in Icy Strait Point”. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.

    I am looking at this excursion for this coming Sept. I do not think it looks like a $400 excursion for two of us.

    When we took this tour it was $100 a person but I noticed on the Holland America cruise we’re taking in September that it’s now $110. Thank you for your comments and thank you you for subscribing to our channel.

    Hi there! I am considering taking this tour next year with family, would you say the amount of walking is relatively manageable? On our previous cruise our most intense walking tour was mendenhall glacier, wondering if this would be possible for someone with limited mobility. Thanks for the great video as always!

    There was very little walking and it was fairly level. But no bears. They did say that rarely happens. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.

    This video was very informative. $100 a person there is a little steep. And I’m sure they feel awful charging that money for 3 viewing platforms and no bears. This is a tourist trap port. so I’ll be a tourist and ride the zip line for $269.

    We went back and did it again and saw some bears. Still not worth it. Watch the video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lYR6j8GYqLPLk5M.htmlsi=6YnRD6wnklCHUFrw You're right about the 'tourist trap' part. You can't hike up the mountain unless you pay for a tour. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.

    A free tour was part of our package. We think all tours are a little pricey.
