Norm was one of the most interesting people we met in Alaska. As a native Alaskan, he was able to the culture of Ketchikan. He also explained about the unique politics of the area. He is truly an asset. I've never seen so many salmon. The van was comfortable, and we were picked up very near our ship.

Best way to get a taste of Ketchikan

We had a local resident of Ketchikan that was also part of the Native tribe. He was VERY knowledgeable about the port and gave us wonderful insight into the culture of the area. We stoped at the Saxman Totem poles and he dressed in his traditional clothing and told us the story of each totem pole. Quite the experience!

We did see some bear and Eagles on this tour. We were guided by a local chief which added an additional dimension to this tour. We learned a lot about the local Indian heritage and culture as well as the history of the area

Our tour guide was authentic and had lived in Ketchikan most of his life. He told us stories and history of the area. He took us to the wildlife area to see salmon and bears. We didn’t see any bears, but did see several eagles and a couple of their nests. He gave us a truly amazing day!

We really enjoyed our excursion. Watching the salmon swim upstream and using the salmon ladder was unbelievable. We saw Dolly’s house heard the story of Ketchikan’s hardest working woman and the totem poles told quite a story. We had lunch at The Fishouse, we shared a AK Sampler and it was fabulous, the best salmon we had while in Alaska.

Our tour guide was a local mom who knew everything about Ketchikan. Not only local sites of interest but Native American history as well. She also took us to a site where we got the most amazing pics of eagles.

We had a great time in Ketchikan! I have never seen so many Eagles in my life---we loved watching them everywhere we went. The town was a nice place to walk around and try the local restaurants-especially the crab legs!!!

Totems
September 12, 2019
This was the first tour of our Alaskan cruise and it focused on the history of the native Americans with a lot of information about totem poles and the master carvers who produce them. It was a small van experience allowing a lot of interaction with the knowledgeable guide. We saw a number of totems and also a master carver at work - most impressive. There were many bald eagles to be seen as well as other native birds. Slightly early in the year to see the salmon run, maybe next time!

I liked the tour because it was a small size tour compared to the large buses. It felt personal and the guide was a local who knew his stuff. It was not too long nor too short, we did see quite a few places and our guide had his Indian hat and staff to demonstrate.
