“Ketchikan is a truly beautiful city ... The scenery is spectacular, the sights are wonderful, and most important, the people are warm and friendly. Go for the history and the hospitality.”

"Ketchikan catches your iamagination. It is replete with memories and traditions of the Northwest Haidas and history of the Tlingits ... Ketchikan catches your fancy as you stroll along the crisscross ups and downs of Creek Street ... I will never forget the clean, unpretentious, colorful and beautiful town."
