Changing the name from Hoonah to Icy Strait Point looks good on the itinerary, but it is still Hoonah. Let's just say it is a "quiet" place." World's longest zip line was good but $133? The one in New Hampshire is shorter, but also about 20% of the price.

Went into town and saw the eagles. The new set up made me feel disconnected from the town and the chairlift was not working. Also saddened to see the forest that was so beautiful destroyed by the rope course.

We really liked this port. They only allow one cruise ship to dock at a time. You could really see the natural beauty of Alaska up close. This is the only place we chose to look for something to send to our grandchildren because a lot of the merchandise was made in Alaska. The people in Icy Point rely on tourists for their economy and went over and above to make us feel welcome.

It is a new tourist location. The shops are disapointing and the town almost inexistent. They are learning on how to service the tourist industry, thus many mistakes are commited. The remote bush exploration and bear watching, is a total rip off, since you pay $104 dolars per person for a bus ride, with an unexperienced driver and tour guide. Bears I believe from what I heard,are very rare to be spoted in the wilderness and the only place you may see them for sure is the City Dumpster (quoting our guide). There was a theatre with native dancers that should be included with every tour as value added.
