Today is also all last port day in Alaska, so I hope you've enjoyed coming along with us on this amazing cruise

We decided to do the Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show. We booked it individually, not through the cruise line

It was a lot of fun especially if you go into it the right attitude and and especially we had a nice group of people that it was we really enjoyed it quite a bit

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Today we take you along on our final port day in Alaska as our cruise stops in beautiful Ketchikan, Alaska โ€” and yes, it was a classic rainy Alaska day! ๐ŸŒง๏ธ In this video, we explore downtown Ketchikan, walk the historic waterfront area, and visit one of the most popular attractions in port โ€” the Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show. From axe throwing and log rolling to the fun crowd atmosphere, this is one excursion that is always a favorite for cruise passengers. We also share some of the best excursion options in Ketchikan, including: Misty Fjords flightseeing Whale and wildlife tours Totem pole and Native Alaskan cultural tours Salmon fishing charters Creek Street and downtown shopping And at the endโ€ฆ we had every intention of getting some famous Alaskan crab, until we saw the prices and had a little sticker shock! ๐Ÿฆ€๐Ÿ˜ณ Most importantly, this video is a reminder that the best part of any cruise is not just the ports we visit, but the people we are with and the memories we create together. If youโ€™re planning an Alaska cruise on Princess, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Norwegian, Holland America, or another cruise line, Ketchikan is a must-see stop. ๐Ÿ“ Let us know in the comments: Would you do the Lumberjack Show or go straight for the crab? ๐Ÿ‘‰ Please like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for more cruise port guides, ship tours, and travel tips. ๐Ÿ”— Plan your next cruise or connect with us here: https://linktr.ee/FinestTravel #Ketchikan #AlaskaCruise #KetchikanAlaska #CruisePortGuide #LumberjackShow #PrincessCruise #RoyalCaribbean #CelebrityCruises #AlaskaTravel #CruiseVlog #FinestTravelBeat
