World Famous George Inlet Lodge Crab Feast

Excursion Overview

Enjoy a delicious Dungeness crab feast at the George Inlet Lodge!

Come hungry for what many people consider to be some of the best crab they've ever eaten and a favorite Ketchikan excursion.

The remote location just south of town will only add to your dining pleasure at the rustic, yet elegant, George Inlet Lodge. This historic building was built in the 1940s and once served as an old cannery bunkhouse. When the cannery closed in 1970, two local businessmen undertook the huge job of moving the lodge 90 miles up the George Inlet waterway to its present location at the site of an old gold mine. The lodge's warmth and charm create a relaxing experience that will be the highlight of your Alaskan journey.

Your meal features a salad in homemade Asian dressing to start, steaming hot Dungeness Crab, and a slice of rich, smooth cheesecake, smothered in Alaskan blueberries for dessert. You'll also receive one alcoholic drink and unlimited hot/cold beverages are included.

Last but not least, check out the gift shop for a special souvenir for your trip.

Our cruise ship was leaving an hour early due to the weather so I was worried about our excursion since I had booked outside Princess. When we got to port and I was able to check email, I had an email showing Alaska Shore Excursions and as aware of the change and had already changed our dining time to noon. I was very pleased with that and would highly recommend Alaska Shore Excursions

We absolutely loved our visit to George Inlet Lodge! The staff was wonderful and very helpful in explaining how to eat the crab. Everything was delicious and we were completely stuffed! So glad we did this during our stop in Ketchikan. The trip to the lodge and back was great and very easy to find the meeting place. Highly recommended!

I did this excursion in 2023 and in 2024 and it was awesome both times. Make sure you go hungry! You will never have to ask for more crab before they come back around. The waitresses are always pleasant and seem to love their job.
