Day 1:  This morning your flight departs from Anchorage airport. Depending on local weather conditions the bear viewing flight usually departs in the afternoon and our local representatives will coordinate the arrangements with you (including a complimentary ground transfer from your hotel to the floatplane). The sea plane flight safari provides dramatic views of Kodiak Island's rugged landscape as you search for the great Alaskan brown bears. If the bear sightings are better on the Alaska Peninsula, the pilot will cross the Shelikof Straight and fly along the shoreline; landing for the best viewing and photo opportunities. After returning to the city of Kodiak, ground transfer provided back to the hotel. Overnight at Buskin River Inn or similar.

Round trip flight from Anchorage to Kodiak. Overnight accommodation in a Kodiak hotel (one night). Transfers in Kodiak as indicated, half day guided sightseeing tour, and the guided ½ day bear viewing flight with landing (if possible) for viewing bears.

*This tour requires a two person minimum for the bear viewing flight safari!  Bear-viewing flights may be rescheduled due to local weather conditions. Flights may continue to the Alaska Peninsula (Katmai Coast) subject to current bear sightings. Kodiak has a maritime climate (the bears thrive in it). We suggest you bring good raingear. Tour departs daily.

Extending your visit in Kodiak:  The second largest island in America, Kodiak is an interesting destination which may require more time to explore. Our reservation team will be pleased to arrange additional Kodiak tours. Consider sport fishing charters for salmon and halibut, flying aboard the US Mail Plane to a remote village, visiting an Archeological dig site, booking a nature lodge or exploring on your own with a rental car. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate guided sea kayaking trips or horseback riding.
