When you arrive in Ketchikan via cruise ship, you will be in the quaint downtown area. There are 4 berths where the cruise ships tie up and all of them are within walking distance to our boat.  Before departing your cruise ship in Ketchikan, ask a cruise line employee which berth you are located at for reference. A representative from The Bering Sea Crab Fishermen’s Tour will be waiting for you at the bottom of your gangway (steps off of the boat) 30 minutes prior to the tour departure time. Look for the bright yellow jacket and the sign that reads, “Bering Sea Crab Fishermen’s Tour.” The Bering Sea Crab Fishermen’s Tour is located at berth 3 and is centrally located.  All guests must check in with the boat (F/V Aleutian Ballad) at least 15 minutes  prior to the tour departure time. For instance, if you have an 8:00am tour, you would need to be on board the Aleutian Ballad by 7:45am. For a printer friendly copy of this information, please click here.
