Do you want to book a one-of-a-kind fishing trip? Alaska offers many world-class fishing opportunities. At Salmon Berry Travel Tours, we provide Alaska vacations with add on fishing trips and unmatched experiences. Whether you want to fish for salmon or halibut, we have everything you need to add an exciting Alaska fishing trip to your dream vacation!
There are three levels of fishing…
1. You just want to try it out. Add a half day or full day fishing charter to your Alaska vacation! Our Glaciers, Parks, and Wildlife Travel package has a free day in Seward, a perfect day to add on a salmon & rockfish saltwater charter!
2. You want an all-inclusive fishing trip with roundtrip transportation from Anchorage. Our package includes nice cabins along the river, and great river fishing guides. Practice catch & release for rainbow trout. Or, if the salmon are running, you can keep your catch and get it shipped back home to your freezer!
3. Totally Fishing Focused – an independent trip with a rental car. These itineraries include multiple species, multiple fishing locations, and multiple fishing captains/guides.

Additional Fishing Expenses
The following expenses are not included in your fishing charter: Fishing License, Processing/Shipping of Fish, or fishing guide gratuity.
The crew works really hard at baiting your hooks, netting your fish, asking if you want pictures before they clean your fish and taking care of you. Prepare for $50 gratuity per guest unless otherwise noted on your itinerary.
All travelers 16+ years should buy a valid Alaska fishing license. The licenses are available Online or in person.
Processing varies by processor and shipping costs (US destinations only) start at about $6/lb. This is an expense you will pay directly to the processor/shipper. We recommend using the processor/shipper that your captain recommends. Please bring plastic bags with you for your fish to take to the processor.
What should you bring with you?
The atmosphere is informal; casual clothes are suitable here and throughout Alaska. Summer temperatures vary between 45 degrees Fahrenheit and 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Rain is not uncommon. You will be most comfortable if you have clothes that are warm even when damp (wool sweater or polar fleece jacket are best) and decent rain pants and rain jacket. Guests find more comfort bringing a hat, polarized sunglasses, and a light pair of gloves. We fish rain or shine – bring your sense of adventure!
Deep sea fishing vessels will have an inside cabin to get in out of the weather, so dress smart and comfortable. With that said, you won’t catch fish if you are inside! There is a marine head on board.
River fishing drift boats will not have an indoor cabin or facilities. Guests can bring their own waders, or the fishing guides will provide quality waders, wading boots, gear and tackle.
Feel free to bring a cooler or small day bag on board with anything you may want to eat/drink. NO BANANAS or glass bottles for safety and success of our day fishing.
Booking/Cancellation Policy
To start the booking process, you will pay a 50% deposit. The deposit saves your seat as you proceed to make the booking. The remaining fee is due 60 days before the fishing trip starts.
The cancellation of your booking ticket varies based on specific considerations. Most fishing charters have a more strict cancellation fee if you cancel inside 60 days. We highly recommend trip insurance to protect yourself from additional costs associated with cancelling a fishing excursion. Salmon Berry recommends selecting TravelSafe Insurance at checkout to secure your travel and Alaska fishing trip in case of extreme circumstances.
