Creator's Key Takeaways

It's been absolutely beautiful and a lot of fun.

I really wish we had more time in town. I don't know why it's such a short stop.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Be prepared for long shuttle lines from Ward Cove to Ketchikan
Bring comfortable walking shoes for the distance from shuttle drop-off to town
Visit Parnassus Books near Creek Street for unique local items
Check shuttle departure times as last bus leaves town at 11:45 AM
Be aware that Victoria arrival is late evening (8 PM) with limited time ashore
