Creator's Key Takeaways

We are aboard the Ruby Princess on the way to our first destination which is Ketchacan.

The lumberjack show, which was a hoot. And, um, it's definitely a touristy thing, but they're smooth.

It's worth the price of admission just for how silly it is.

It was a great way to kick off the excursions.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book the lumberjack show through the cruise for easy ticket changes.
Walk to Ketchikan sites instead of waiting for the free shuttle.
Visit Creek Street for historic boardwalk and salmon viewing.
