Single & Multi-Day Guided Fishing Trips

Alaska River Adventures has fished the beautiful rivers and lakes of Alaska for 40 years. We provide full day river float fishing trips to just about anywhere on the Kenai Peninsula and half day trips on the Upper Kenai River. Fishing opportunities change depending on the season, but our highly experienced river trout and salmon fishing guides will take you where the fish are biting and the scenery is breathtaking. We put the Alaskan wilderness at your fingertips, with guided river fishing near you, whether you’re in Seward, Kenai or somewhere in between.
