Creator's Key Takeaways
It's really difficult to do both well. Especially when your final shuttle bus is 11:30 a.m. and that's really cutting it to your time.
We're working that much harder than all the other cruise passengers cuz we've got to be precisely the first ones off the ship if we really want to get in.
It's a definite get off the ship as soon as possible so you can avoid this backup because you've got a very limited time in town to begin with.

If you're considering a cruise to Ketchikan, Alaska, find out why Norwegian Cruise Line may not be the best choice. Today, the Norwegian Bliss cruise ship is docked at Ward Cove in Ketchikan, Alaska. It's an early morning, and we've only got the morning to see all the sights in Downtown Ketchikan, then get back to the dock to catch our NCL Excursion. Being docked so far from town and having such a short time in Ketchikan was really a disadvantage. You'll see how cruise lines like Royal Caribbean, Princess, Celebrity, and Holland America are much better options. After our shuttle to town, we explore historic Creek Street, see Dolly's House, find much-needed coffee, then return to Ward Cove. Become a Wanderer!
