Downtown Ketchikan is compact and walkable — most attractions, restaurants, and museums are within a 15-minute walk of the cruise docks. The Blue Line city bus provides low-cost access to Totem Bight State Historical Park to the north and Saxman Totem Park to the south; carry small cash as buses may not accept cards. Rental cars are worthwhile only for multi-day independent travelers who want to explore the full length of North and South Tongass highways.
