Haines Birding & Photography Tour

Join a professional wildlife photographer and birding expert for a small-group tour of the best birding spots around Haines. The area is home to over 260 bird species including bald eagles, Arctic terns, marbled murrelets, and red-breasted sapsuckers. Your guide provides spotting scopes and tips for photographing birds in their natural habitat. Stops include the Chilkat River estuary, tidal flats, and old-growth forest edges where different species concentrate. The tour includes van transportation between birding sites. Walking at each stop is light, mostly on level ground. The total duration is three hours, well within port-day limits. This excursion appeals most to bird enthusiasts and photographers, but anyone interested in Alaska wildlife will enjoy the expert narration and close-range viewing opportunities. Small group sizes mean personalized attention.
