Overview

Enjoy a private tour with locals by booking with Tlingit Tours. We bring you to beautiful destinations for those memorable pictures of Ketchikan. We can drive to the waterfall, salmon ladder and go find bears.
Learn about our native culture by visiting the Totem Heritage Center or Potlach Park.
Mountain Point is great for more pictures when you absorb the natural beauty of the ocean and surrounding islands, hopefully see whales that will create more excitement!
Tlingit Tours can also customize tours to meet your needs. Some want just to see wildlife or learn about the native culture.
See Ketchikan in comfort with your family and friends.

    Cool Alaska wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

    On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Alaska over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
