About this tour

Spend six hours fishing the waters around Ketchikan with captains who know Southeast Alaska through every season. Experienced commercial and sport fishermen, they live in the region year-round and understand where local fish gather and how their patterns change.

Your trip includes fishing rods, reels, bait, and tackle, along with soft drinks and snacks. Start times are flexible, making it easier to fit a day on the water into your plans. The meeting point is within walking distance of the cruise ship docks, except for Norwegian cruise passengers, who need to take a cab to City Float Harbor in downtown Ketchikan. A fishing license and King Salmon stamp are not included; fish processing and shipping are also extra.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 2 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Ketchikan
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.2.
