Ports You’ll Visit Along the Inside Passage with Princess Cruises

Ketchikan

Ketchikan sits where the sea meets a sea of trees, and as such, timber and salmon make up the core of the town’s claim to fame; you can expect both to play central roles in your visit here. Of the former, both the Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show — where performers showcase their throwing, racing and chopping prowess in head-to-head competition — and the world’s oldest collection of indigenous totem poles at the Totem Pole Heritage Center are available as excursions for your time in port. Both show unique, yet contrasting, examples of how civilizations have approached the craft of timber. Additionally, as the salmon capital of the world, the waters are rich with fish. Whether your ideal means of experiencing it is fishing it up yourself or simply tasting the final product prepared by a skilled chef, you’ll have ample opportunity to appreciate the local salmon. 

Of course, the ideal way to visit Alaska is on a cruise with Princess Cruises — but our travel advisors can take your trip to the next level. Not only will you have plenty of time to experience the sights and flavors listed above, but you’ll also enjoy everything that makes Princess Cruises a leading name in the industry — from the ultraluxe MedallionClass^® experience to the made-from-scratch cuisine — on top of exclusive perks and amenities secured through our working relationship with them.
