Riverboat Discovery offers a favorite and highly recommended Alaskan experience on a historic family-run steamboat. The tour provides a great and amazing journey down the Tanana River with beautiful scenery and lots of photo opportunities. Guests can see a sled dog demonstration and pet the dogs, watch a sea plane take off and land next to the boat, and walk through a recreated old Alaska village and living history museum with wonderful guides. The experience is slick, professional, and full of fascinating information from a knowledgeable and kind crew. Visitors also enjoy a fun gift shop, restaurant, and treats like free coffee and doughnuts. It is considered a no-brainer for a complete and enjoyable tour.
Super well run business. All the employees to to bottom were friendly and professional. The contents of the Chena village were authentic and well arranged. Butcher sled dogs presentation was a highlight. Worth the cost. Saw many ducks an osprey and Eagles. Historical narration was super. As authentic as it gets.
