We met the other 3 participants at the airport and our guide Bill provided a very comprehensive orientation, with an emphasis on safety as well as comfort. He told us exactly what to expect and provided us with rain pants, rain jackets, hip waders and binoculars as needed. It was raining when we took off in the seaplane but we had a nice scenic flight with pilot Jared, and an extremely smooth landing. We waded onshore, got our gear together and set off for the bear viewing area. Even from a distance we could see several bears and once we got settled we saw even more, along with bald eagles sitting amongst them. Over the 3 hours we were there we saw 8-10 bears, sometimes in the distance and sometimes close by as they walked past us to and from the river. After we left the bears Bill took us on a hike through the rainforest and gave us lots of interesting facts about the area.

Overall, we were impressed with the thoroughness of the preparation, the gear they provided us, the quality of the guide and of course, the fact that we saw lots of bears in a natural setting! We would highly recommend this once in a lifetime experience! read less
