Private tours in Ketchikan give your group a dedicated vehicle, a local guide, and a flexible itinerary tailored to your interests. Instead of following a fixed route with a busload of cruise passengers, you set the pace — spending more time at the stops that matter to you and skipping the ones that do not.

For a fully flexible experience, the Exclusive Private Van Tour offers 4 hours with Ketchikan Concierge in a luxury van, where you design the entire itinerary with your guide.
