5 Star Tours Ketchikan

About 5 Star Tours Ketchikan

Local Guides. Legendary Adventures.

5 Star Tours Ketchikan was built on a simple idea — that exploring Alaska should feel personal, not packaged. Founded by two of Ketchikan’s top-rated local tour guides, we set out to raise the bar for private touring in this amazing area.

Ketchikan private tours led by experienced local tour guides

Our Promise: Quality Over Quantity

We’ve spent years guiding guests through Ketchikan’s wild beauty — from misty rainforests and roaring waterfalls to hidden beaches, totem parks, and the best king crab in town. Along the way, we realized what travelers really want isn’t just a ride — it’s a genuine Alaskan experience with people who call this place home.

That’s exactly what we deliver.

Our Promise: Quality Over Quantity

We don’t do cookie-cutter bus tours or rushed photo ops. Every 5 Star Tour is built around you — your pace, your interests, your sense of adventure. Whether it’s chasing eagles, exploring tidepools, sampling local brews, or visiting historic sites, we customize your day to make it unforgettable.

When you book with us, you’re not just getting a tour guide — you’re getting a local friend behind the wheel who knows when the bears are feeding, where the whales are moving, and how to make the most of every minute in Ketchikan.
