Climb aboard the authentic steam-powered Alaska Queen for an experience you won't soon forget. Steam engines built in 1884 power the paddle wheel. This stern-wheeler will transport you back in time as we share the exploits, deeds and misdeeds of the area's early residents. Learn about Creek Street, the town's former red-light district and all of the moonshine hiding places during prohibition.
Get an up-close view of the areas where many of Ketchikan's historical events took place from the unique perspective of our classic steam driven stern-wheeler. Whether inside or on one of the three decks of this showpiece vessel, you will view much of the colorful waterfront of this seafaring town built right into the bedrock and overhanging the water. Costumed performers and musicians will entertain you, and the bar will be open. Tour includes a signature "Calliope Cocktail"!
This is truly a unique Alaskan experience you will not want to miss!
