Some would say the best way to get acquainted with Ketchikan is to drink with locals.
This fun, informative and entertaining 90-minute walking tour takes you slightly off the beaten track to delve into the culture, and drinking culture, of Alaska's First City. Ketchikan is quite famous for 'doing business at the bar' -- a tradition dating back to rough-and-ready frontier times. Your guide shares tales of Prohibition-era bootlegging, speakeasies, and the antics that took place in the Creek Street red-light district.
Sample beverages at several of Alaska's oldest pubs, meeting the genuine characters of Ketchikan. Stroll down historic streets and get a real sense of life in this remote rain forest town.
At your final stop, you may walk to the ship with your guide or remain at the pub to explore the town and return at your leisure.
