Our
Saxman Native Village Tour takes you to a real Native Village just outside of
Ketchikan where you will see the world's largest collection of standing Totem
Poles, a Carving Shed and a Native Clan House. View Native carvers as they create
new totem poles out of red cedar.
Your
guide will share stories and legends of the totem poles (some over 100 years old)
while you stroll through the totems and a traditional Beaver Clan House where
Alaska Natives would have lived and celebrated. You
will also view historical landmarks and harbors along with our famous "Red
Light District", Creek Street . Make sure you have your camera ready at Ketchikan's
"Fish Ladder" where the Salmon fight their way upstream each season
to spawn (June through September).
Finally,
our tour takes you on an easy beautiful scenic walk through the woods and down
to the beach, which often includes sightings of Bald Eagles nesting and other
Alaskan wildlife. Throughout our tour there will be stops along the way to exit
the bus for viewing and photo opportunities, as well as rest rooms conveniently
located along the way throughout the tour. Our goal is to
make this the most memorable tour of your life!
