The Experience
What your day looks like
Our modern, state-of-the-art amphibian will take you on a 90-minute tour through the rustic streets of Ketchikan, Alaska showing you new and historic sights. This is a fun-filled adventure showing you all the best that Ketchikan has to offer! Travel by the salmon ladder on Ketchikan Creek viewing the spawning grounds and live salmon in season, picturesque Whale Park with its beautiful flowers and unique totems, and Creek Street where you will learn of Ketchikan’s colorful past and salty beginnings. Next, get ready to pick up your feet and put your hands in the air as The Ketchikan Duck Tour drives you into the scenic harbor of the Tongass Narrows! Feel the energy of the “Salmon Capital of the World” as you pass by our diverse local fishing fleet. Motor down the channel for up-close views of local fishing canneries, seaplane docks, and Ketchikan’s waterfront community. Your Ketchikan Duck Tour guide will captivate and entertain you on your journey together aboard this Coast Guard-certified and inspected amphibian that doubles as a boat and a bus.

The actual people who did the tour were friendly enough and informative. However the seats in the boat are too close together and made it very uncomfortable. The actual water part of the tour was ridiculous. We went out onto the water and made a circle and came back in.
