"This was better than expected. Lots of crowd participation and the lumberjacks went into the crowd to pass out autographed photos. Lots of good-hearted jokes. This was very enjoyable and they have a great gift shop too. We would go again if we were in the area. The bleachers are covered and they have heaters above. The lumberjacks take photos with anyone that wants one at the end of the show. Good fun."

David Farley

"Its a little corny but good family fun! Worth a visit if on the cruise ship."

"An absolute must-do in Alaska! We attended the Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show with family during our cruise, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. The show was packed with action, from log rolling to axe throwing, and the skill and athleticism of the lumberjacks were impressive. They kept the energy high with a perfect mix of humor and competition, making it fun and engaging for all ages. The performers did a great job involving the audience and made us feel like part of the show. This is a unique and entertaining way to experience Alaskan culture—definitely recommend adding it to your itinerary!"

"This wasn't my first choice of activities when planning our trip, but I'm so glad we booked this event! After the exciting tour we had of the Misty fjords and the beginning of our trip this was the perfect event to just have fun and shout & yell & make noise in general! We just dove right into the story and the experience and practically lost our voices with shouting. It was such a good time and a great energy!"

Yeedah Krasowski

"A great fun experience. This high action and fun show was a great part of our day in Ketchikan. The compare ‘lasagne Joe” knew how to work a crowd and the interaction between the lumberjacks, Joe and the audience was superb."

Mark Priest

"We really enjoyed this show. It was truly entertaining. The crab fest afterwards was even better than expected. The food was fresh, tasty & there was plenty of it."

Beth Zboran

"So. Fun! I didn't know what to expect, but it was an energizing and fun afternoon to see these hunks of lumberjacks perform these tasks. It was also intense, they were not easy jobs and pretty dangerous. The host/emcee was AMAZING and deserves a raise!"

Jason Zimmerman

"Cheesy? Yep! Entertaining? Yep! Touristy? Yep! Worth your time? For sure! We had a blast and would recommend it to anyone visiting Ketchikan. The show was enjoyable for everyone kids to grandparents. "

"It is corny, the jokes are bad .... but it's a must see. You'll have a much better time than you imagine. We had a great time Inspite of the steady unending downpour. Cudos to the performers..."

Robert Peresan

"This was a great experience! Definitely within walking distance from the cruise ship. We could actually see the venue from our room. The lumberjack were knowledgeable and entertaining. They gave great performances all day based on the cheers from the crowds we heard all day! Highly recommend this excursion, which was cheaper purchasing directly from their site than booking as a cruise excursion."

Susan Cervone

"Just a great show. Second time and just as fun. It rained but the covers kept all the rain off. I booked in advance but I think you would be unlucky not to get in, and while changing tickets for a later show was easy, I would leave flexibility. Maybe book online from the ship"

David Tee

"This show was GREAT! Fun to watch AND learn a bit about the history of logging. If you get the opportunity, do the axe 🪓 throw. Steve taught us how to do it and we had a blast! Keep up the great work, guys!"

Mike Chiumento

"What a fun fun fun show!! The MC does a great job of creating energy and getting you excited to see the show. You can’t help but to leave in a happy mood. And the lumberjacks do a great job too. 🙂"

Anne D'Alessandro

"Best show in town. Probably the only show, but still super fun and 100% worth the price of admission. We bought tickets direct and not via our cruise because more times were offered."

Scott Wakefield

"Just the right amount of cheesy and amazing talent. I really enjoyed this show, it was worth the money. Arrive 15 min early because seating is first come first served. The athletes are really incredible and the jokes and gags were family friendly."

Sara A

"This was a highlight of our trip to Alaska. They put on a very entertaining show that is family friendly and comedic. Recommend 10 out of 10"

Justin Etherton

"The rumors were true, this show is amazing! The announcer the, lumber jacks the ambiance. Everything was great ."

Jose Mendoza Soto

"I had a blast watching those lumberjacks show off their skills and humor, but Celebrity cruise ship only gave us a tiny taste of Ketchikan, Alaska, docking from 7am to 3pm. I mean, who can really experience the wild beauty of Alaska in just eight hours? Mark and I got sucked into eating all the halibut and browsing cheesy tourist traps - yeah, we're those tourists. Next time, we're driving up from Seattle and doing it right."

jocelyn jessica jacinto

"We love this show that it is our third time seeing it over the years."

Michelle Wallace

"Very funny and entertaining show. The Canadian team won! Suggest buying tickets in advance as if you buy it at the entrance you might be seated at the end. Good educational experience as well. BTW, the lumberjacks are very biased towards kids and older ladies. I was screaming loudly to get the prise, but they totally ignored me. Very unfair for the big man like me ;-)"

Ed B-n

"First time visit and blown away by the level of energy and just plain fun. Great time for all including kids. Will absolutely do again next time in Ketchikan. Nothing fake in the show. These are real athletes competing against each other. The MC keeps things lively and entertaining. Yo Ho to the entire cast."

Rick K

"Our family had a great time at this show. These men are incredibly talented and the show was well put together. I do recommend going to an earlier show vs later as traffic in Ketchikan getting here from the ports can be a little thick-abd Ketchikan also has some great shopping for friendly souveniers"

Julz Perell

"Great show very fun and interesting. They kept you laughing at there jokes. I would recommend watching them and good for kids…"

Tammy Webb

"This show is awesome! The lumberjacks do some amazing things. Well worth the price we paid for the show."

Elaine Rogers

"What a fun show! I had heard about the show for years but expected just a hokey tourist thing and didn’t really know if I would enjoy myself. Well, we really had a great time. It was an excursion for our ship this past week and they really put on a good showthe trash talking the work the muscles. The mistress of ceremonies everything from beginning to end was fun."

Denise M

"Fun family local experience. We greatly enjoyed and definitely recommend. The arena is rather small which makes you feel like you’re really there."

Magdalena Rawecka

"It was a really great experience- the guys were very impressive and, whilst scripted, the show definitely had entertainment and comedy value as well as being a display of skill. Lots of audience participation and loud chainsaws etc. Mean this probably isn't for you if you had a heavy night, but otherwise was great fun for kids and adults."

Alistair Mason

"We really enjoyed the Lumberjack show. It was fun and entertaining. They handle the crowds well. Cute gift store and concessions available too."

Tammy H

"I had a great time at the show when I visited in October. It was exciting, and the lumberjacks really got the crowd involved."

Taylor Roberts

"This place was amazing! Live entertainment from lumberjacks! So skilled and entertaining. They made the crowd elintereact and gave gifts along the way. You won't have a dull moment. Must do activity in Alaska!"
