Logs and laughs - If you have never seen a lumberjack show, you are in for a real treat. The show is set up as a competition between two teams. There are a lot of corny jokes, cheers, and prizes. The loggers compete in several wood chopping, axe throwing, and log rolling events. It is good family fun.

Need to go - What a show, it was exciting and great to watch. With both sides of the seating areas voting for their team either America or Canada, added bit of fun to it all. From the lumberjacks climbing the very high poles, water logging and to see how long they could stay on the logs, to axe throwing and sawing. Great fun and great entertaining show.

Lumberjack show, Ketchikan. - A stop in Ketchikan was part of our cruise and since our time was limited, I thought this would be a good diversion. We were not disappointed! Now, the show is a bit kitschy, but the host shares a lot of the history of Ketchikan and intersperses a great deal of humor. The performers are really impressive athletes and while acting may not be their forte, their lumberjack skills are truly impressive. We had a great time and considered the price money well spent.

Fun and funny - Silly fun well done! They got the crowd into it from the first word. Kids would love it! Very talented ‘actors’ with mad skills! Well worth it when you need a close to the dock excursion from a cruise!

Great time at the Lumberjack show - The Great American Lumberjack was awesome. After we were unable to locate the tour guide, the staff was very helpful to make sure we were able to see the show and also go to the George Inlet Crab Feast. A big shout out to Rebecca at the Lumberjack show. It was fantastic!

Excellent! - The Lumberjack Show is so much fun! Make sure to bundle up for the early show! The guys make it so much fun. Fun for all ages! The trolley ride is nice. You get to see a lot without walking forever! Cole, our driver was very informative and very nice.

Fun and funny - So cool to see these guys in action.
They put on a fun show with lots of humor, even while it was raining.
They really just show the skills needed to be a lumber jack. Axe work, hand saws, chain saws, tree topping, and log rolling. They do it all.

Enjoyable entertainment - The show was a fun activity to do in Ketchikan. The young men were very proficient and skillful. The moderator was funny and well spoken. Audio was good, as well. Ever think of adding women to the mix for variety?
My only negative was, that I tried via email and text to reach someone about changing a show time. No one returned my call/message. I made one last attempt to call and reached Kaya, who was most courteous and helpful.
Until that point I was placed in a stressful situation not knowing if the time could be changed having cruise ship restraints.
You have a one of a kind show. Wouldn't you want your business reputation reflect that? Thank you for your consideration.

Don’t go!! - Terrible!! This was recommended to me by a family who saw the show some years ago. It must have changed.
The hard core marketing, not just for the show but for all the tourist trap stores around it, is ridiculous!! They must have mentioned all the stores at least 3 times before the show even started then again at the end, not to mention all the sponsor’s banners, placements and direct mention of the tools themselves.
Very disappointed. Couldn’t enjoy the show at all!!
Never again

Not the Lumberjack Show - My poor rating is for Viator and their inability to fulfill the contract. I paid ahead of time and was told that a voucher with pick up time would be emailed and I never received an one stating what time or whom to meet at the port location. I have been told by Viator that according to the company who know one was able to get a hold of on the day of the shore excursion. Very disappointing.
