Overview
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!
