What To Expect

Arctic Bar

Sample a drink specialty or beer at one of Ketchikan's oldest bars. Hear about the Arctic's history and other crazy stories of destruction in the area. Get to know the mascot with some great photos. Enjoy the view from the only bar with a deck dockside in town.

Creek Street

Historic Red Light District along the beautiful Ketchikan Creek - a great place for photos and watching the salmon swim up stream to spawn. Along the way there, you will hear stories of the colorful past of Ketchikan, see historic buildings and get to stretch your legs along the fairly flat sidewalks through town.

Dolly's House Museum

An example of the types of businesses that used to line the boardwalk street in the earlier years.

Potlatch Bar

Another historic bar at the top of the Fishing Fleets' docks is a favorite Fishermen's hangout. Again, you will sample the "Latch's" specialty drink or enjoy a cold beer while wrapping up the tour with just a few more laughs and crazy stories from your tour guide, locals or the bartender.

Incredible tour of authentic local bars off the beaten path. Great individual attention, and made sure we knew where to go to enjoy the rest of our day in Port. They also took photos of us at each spot so we could remember each stop

Terry of Terry’s Tours is a magnificent person. Conversation flowed easily between us. Good thing because I was a solo traveler and nervous as heck. He could have easily canceled as I was the only person that booked his tour that morning. The one on one attention was a bonus.
