Truly Educational - It was a very good use of our time in this community. Clark did a great job teaching us about the Native Community and how to identify each tribe. The stops along the way were also a delight. We saw some wild life and our time passed quickly.

Great tour! - We enjoyed Clark’s knowledge of the area and easy conversations in our small group. He was easy to locate off the ship and very comfortable transport I love tours but it always seems like you need more time before you have to be back to the meeting place
