At first I thought the show would be aimed at kids - but it is very enjoyable even for adults (while still being kid-friendly). Don't be afraid to cheer your team on, boo the other team, and laugh and enjoy the show! Lots of great competitions, some very impressive and others just silly. The show was just under an hour... more

A little pricey at $86 for 2 adults and a kid, but I'd say it was worth it. We got into the rooting for our team, with polite (silly) heckling between the two fan bases. The lumberjacks did a good job, and the hostess kept things entertaining. I wouldn't want to see this sort of thing more than, say, once... more

My family, all adults, enjoyed watching these athletes compete and their easy joshing of one another. The hostess kept everyone involved and did a great job. It's only a short walk from the pier where the cruise ships dock. I would recommend this for all ages as good family entertainment, rain or shine. more

This is well done, with a lot of humour and they make a lot of what seems relatively simple. They split the crowd in half and get each section cheering for two lumberjacks each as they compete against one another. For just USD36 it's well worth it, only takes an hour or so and is right next to the cruise... more

This show is performed several times a day for all the cruise tourist. I really enjoyed the amazing display of skill demonstrated as well the good humor and friendship. The performers seems to be having a great time. more

Our group of six, including two grandparents and 9 and 11 year olds enjoyed this very much. Two teams compete in about ten different events. It only lasts about one hour, but it's a lot of fun. It's also only two short blocks from the cruise ships. more

Our cruise ship stopped in Ketchikan for a day. We booked this excursion based on the excellent reviews. What a great time. We thoroughly enjoyed this show. Would highly recommend the show for families. more

Not worth the money. It rained, it was cold, and it took forever. It was really no different from what you can see on the TV shows from the Travel or Discovery channels. By going to this and the totem pole tour, there was no time to shop or look around. more

Fun show

We recently returned from an Alaskan cruise. We scheduled the Totems and Lumberjack show excursion in Ketchikan. We enjoyed them both. We had a perfect day to be outside for the Totem Park. Our guide was very informative and interesting. The Lumberjack show was really fun. The only thing is that we were only in port for about 4 hours... more

The Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show is a example of Timber Sports at the professional level. The fun show has two team of lumberjacks, sometimes Lumber Jills too, competing in various events. Fun and truly exciting. The chopping, log rolling, climbing , hot saws and jokes are great entertainment for all. A must see in Ketchikan. more
