Creator's Key Takeaways

We went on our tour with Over the Top tours. There was only two other couples with us. So, nice small tour. It was really good.

It's very touristy but fun for a laugh. Um, There are other things I would do before the lumberjack show, but that's up to you guys.

Not sure this could even be considered riding a bicycle or exercise, but it's definitely fun.

YouTube Video Description

Join us as we explore Ketchikan, Alaska during our Royal Caribbean cruise! 🇺🇸 When visiting Alaska by cruise, one of the biggest decisions is whether to book an expensive cruise ship excursion, explore the port on your own, or take the risk with a local tour. For our day in Ketchikan, we decided to try a non-cruise excursion and see if it was worth it. We head out on a bear searching tour through the Alaskan wilderness, visit Totem Park to see the incredible totem poles and learn more about the history and culture of the area, explore the famous Creek Street, and finish the day watching the exciting Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show. Ketchikan is one of the most popular stops on an Alaska cruise, and in this video we show what you can realistically experience in one day — including wildlife, sightseeing, and whether booking outside the cruise line was the right choice. If you're planning an Alaska cruise and wondering what to do in Ketchikan, hopefully this gives you some ideas for your own trip!
