Join an award-winning local chef and a First Nations cultural ambassador on a private small-group walk through the town's culinary and indigenous heritage — wild berry preserves, smoked king salmon, and Tlingit storytelling included.
What to expect
The walk winds through the historic Creek Street district and into family-run smokehouses where salmon has been cured the same way for generations. You taste cedar-plank sockeye, hand-harvested sea vegetables, and wild berry preparations alongside locally crafted spirits. The Tlingit ambassador shares oral histories tied to each food — hunting laws, seasonal ceremony, and the spiritual relationship with the salmon. You leave with recipes, a tasting journal, and a full stomach.
Good to know
Meeting point is a 5-minute walk from the main pier. Maximum eight guests ensures genuine conversation. Dietary requirements are accommodated with 48 hours notice. Tour runs rain or shine; the town's covered boardwalks keep you dry.
