Step into the heart of Alaska's rainforest for a one-of-a-kind open-fire dining experience.
After a scenic narrated drive down the coastal highway, a short rainforest walk brings you to a secluded hilltop venue, surrounded by towering evergreens and overlooking the sparkling Tongass Narrows.
Your senses will come alive as the aroma of wood smoke fills the air. Experienced chefs prepare a succulent meal over crackling flames. Watch as wild-caught seafood sizzles on iron grates, hear the gentle hiss of cast-iron skillets, and see slow-roasted meats carved before your eyes. The culinary team shares stories of Alaskan life, traditional cooking methods, and the local ingredients featured in your meal. Then, savor this generous multi-course feast featuring slow-cooked meats, seasonal sides, and desserts around the fire, with a glass of beer or wine or unlimited soft drinks.
After your meal, take a peaceful stroll along forested trails, linger by the fire pits, or simply soak in the panoramic ocean views.
Next, your land journey begins with a scenic drive along the Tongass Narrows to Totem Bight State Park. Stroll the Totem Bight Trail under a canopy of majestic hemlock and cedar trees. This ¾-mile walk is lined with an extensive collection of totems.
Through lively stories, you will learn about the culture and lifestyle practiced by the Northwest Coastal Natives and have a chance to enter an authentic Native clan house.
After a brief stop at the quaint Alaska Totem Trading Store, an entertaining city tour shows you the industries that made Ketchikan the Salmon Capital of the World.
Returning to the pier, catch a glimpse of Ketchikan's colorful past as you drive past the historic Creek Street red-light district.
