Full description

Mountain trails through a harvested timber area offer the perfect venue for an off-road challenge.
Learn about the history, culture, and economy of Ketchikan as you are transported first by motor coach to the rainforest wilderness and the Adventure Kart base camp. Listen to a safety briefing and gear up in preparation for your exciting, one-and-a-half-hour guided trek.
The caravan of karts sets off to explore the remote backcountry along several miles of improved forest trail, with your guide in the lead ATV. Feel the rush of adrenaline at the start of your journey in a 2024 RZR 1000XP Ultimate that tests your ability to traverse through the wilderness. A comfortable pace is maintained as you thread your way around steep curves. The road climbs to reveal unparalleled views of the Tongass National Forest, Behm Canal and Alaska's fabled Inside Passage.

You'll stop along the way to soak up the grandeur and beauty of this lush land.

Drivers and passengers(18+) have the opportunity to switch positions for the return trip. Watch out for wildlife along the way -- eagles, deer or bears are frequently sighted.

Claudine – LuxembourgMay 17, 2025 – Verified booking
According to the description, the tour should have lasted 3 1/2 hours. We were on the road for 2 hours and 45 minutes from the pick-up point to our return. The drive from the pick-up point to the karts took 10 minutes. Then we were shown a safety video, which is perfectly fine. The kart ride is good but much too short. It's not worth the price. Alaska is, of course, more expensive than other places. The trip takes about 1.5 hours with long stops for photos and explanations about the landscape. We have already done several tours like this for much less money and spent many hours driving the karts. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this tour for the price, and we didn't see (experience) much.
