Alaska Canoeing Tours & Rentals
Canoeing is one of the most intimate ways to explore the waterways in Alaska. They eliminate the sound of a jet boat, and they do not fit as many passengers as a raft. This means there is more time for you to feel the flow of the water and take in all of the sights and smells around you. You can get out on the water on your own or opt for a guided tour, but you must do your share of the paddling. Therefore this is a great option for the more active vacationer.
