Northern Tours of Alaska

Nils Utterback arrived in Alaska over 29 years ago and has worked as a sailor, deck hand, cab driver and fisherman. Nils started his tour company ten years ago with one van, a friendly smile and lots of enthusiasm. Now he has a fleet of buses and vans to provide you with the best possible professional tour Ketchikan Alaska has to offer. For the short time that visitors have to view the sights, Northern Tours of Alaska is the company to choose. Through hard work and experience Northern Tours is now the leading independent tour company on the dock. Expansion has also brought employment to local talented employees.

His love of the great outdoors and the open ocean led him to his fiancée Diane whom he met on the Alaska Ferry System. They enjoy their time together with their 9-year-old Shepard/Husky mix named Sadie and a white and black kitten named Lily.
