About Tongass Tides

Tongass Tides operates boat tours that offer curated 4-hour experiences on the water. The company offers two primary trips: the Private Boat Tour and the General Boat Tour. Each trip includes approximately three hours of time on the water and includes round-trip transportation as part of the total itinerary. The Private Boat Tour specifies a convenient one-hour round-trip transportation segment; the General Boat Tour includes round-trip transportation without a specified transit duration. Both experiences emphasize connecting with natural surroundings and creating memorable moments during an extended water-based excursion.

Tongass Tides presents clear trip structures and durations so guests can plan time on the water and ground transport together. Trip descriptions identify total tour length, on-water activity time, and transportation elements. The Private Boat Tour provides a private booking option for parties that prefer an exclusive vessel, while the General Boat Tour offers the same total duration and on-water time in a standard tour format.

Transportation is included, simplifying arrival and departure planning. Tongass Tides' published trip summaries help visitors compare options and select a boat tour that matches expectations for duration, privacy, and time on the water.
