Notes:
Motorized or electric wheelchairs cannot be accomodated. Staff and crew will help to the best of their ability with guests needing assistance down the ramp and boarding the vessel. It is essential that you wear warm, layered clothing to fully enjoy and participate in this excursion; outer layer should be waterproof and windproof. Bring gloves, a warm hat and a scarf. Tour requires approximately five minutes of walking between the cruise ship pier and Atlin Dock. Wear sturdy non-skid shoes. Snacks and beverages, including beer and wine, are available at the kiosk on board the vessel (at your own expense). There is a ramp to negotiate at the tour boat dock; it can be steep at low tide. Guests prone to motion sickness should consider this before booking and/or take appropriate medication. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed.
