SAXMAN NATIVE VILLAGE
Are you looking to see the best of Ketchikan in a short time with a chance of wildlife? The Tongass Trolley tour is for you! Enjoy the sights while your Guide shares Ketchikan's colorful history in a replicated 1800's cable car trolley. You begin the journey with a short drive past an eagle's nest to Saxman Native Village where you will disembark to experience the largest collection of Tlingit and Haida totem poles. Your Guide will share the rich cultural story each totem tells while you walk around the grounds of the village. The next stop is at a small cove for an opportunity to see wildlife. Of course, wildlife is never guaranteed, but there is a good chance of sightings at this location. The last stop is a short drive to Rainbow Falls where you will stop to enjoy a photo op in front of the beautiful falls. After a scenic coastal drive back to town, we will drop you at the historic district of Creek Street or back to where the tour began. You will love where we take you!
Take a step back in time as you learn about the cannery industry and its contributions to the history of Ketchikan. Immerse yourself in this fully guided tour as you explore the grounds of the historic George Inlet Salmon Cannery. Enjoy the scenic drive through Downtown Ketchikan with a guided photo stop in Saxman Native Village. Explore the totem park, carving center, and gift shop before continuing to one of the oldest canneries in Ketchikan. The George Inlet Cannery is full of rich history from the original canning and fishing days. A menu of small bites including freshly caught seafood, locally grown ingredients, and wild-caught game paired with Alaskan brewed beer round off this fun-filled day.
