Brooks Falls Bear Viewing

Summary: Great trip. Flight over was amazing and then Brooks Fall was good. Low on bear count - 3 bears and one cub. Family owned business - very nice and would use them again.

Summary: Pilot was very personable and knowledgable. Only water can be carried to the bear viewing area. You can take other drinks and food, but this must be placed in a bear locker or left on the plane. Dress in layers. No tripods to hold cameras. Mono pods are acceptable.

Summary: Brooks falls was magical - watching the bears in their native habitat during the salmon run was a bucket list-level adventure and even exceeded what we expected. Alaskan Adventures was great in handling the logistics of getting us there safely and on time with as much time to enjoy the area as we could. The flight over the inlet and Katmai National park was also breathtakingly beautiful.

Summary: The trip was fantastic! Cory was an amazing pilot and took really good care of us. I felt totally safe about every aspect of our trip. He’s very knowledgeable about Alaska and his wife Breanna is lovely. Would highly recommend this trip!

Summary: The whole experience was amazing. We got to see bears close from the viewing platform. There were a lot of bears in the water in front of us and several downstream.

Summary: This is the first time being on a float plane and I loved it!!! Scenery was amazing from the plane. Then.. of course, the bears. Bears bears bears. So. Many. Bears. I loved that the national park rangers set up viewing time slots (30min) at the main platform to limit crowd. While we were waiting, we were on other platforms and you can see many bears from there, too. Felt very safe. Never felt crowded anywhere.

Summary: The flight to and from within a float plane was a uniquely Alaskan experience. On top of the flight was the bears! It was brilliant.

Summary: Due to the weather, the trip didn't go as we had planned or hoped for, but that was no fault of Brianna or Cory at Alaska Adventure Guides and Outfitters. We took off from the lake knowing there was a chance we might not be able to land at Brook Falls. One hour into the hour and a half flight the pilot determined it would be unsafe to continue due to the weather. No planes were getting in on that day. He then took us on a flight down the coast for a nice scenic ride on the way back to the lake. We were leaving the next day so we couldn't try another day. I thought we should get a partial refund, but Brianna, very graciously issued us a full refund. I highly recommend them!

Summary: Saw three bears but the salmon had not started their migration yet. But we did see bears. I should have done more research to see when they will start running this year. Longer winter later start😔

Summary: Great experience! We are a big group to Homer, even the weather are not very good but one of the group we finally be there the kingdom of the beer!
