katfer Posted February 13, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Hey ... just going to say... I love to shop! Can anyone tell me where the best shopping is? Starting in Anchorage, then Seward ..ISP.. Juneau.. Skagway ..and Ketchikan ending in Vancouver. What did you get and where did you get it? I found a thread from 2005 so I thought I'd see if any one knows the scoop from their recent cruises. Thanks. Looking for authentic Alaska!

AKStafford Posted February 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 13, 2017 What is it that you are looking for? For Alaskan souvenirs, the Alaska Wildberry Company in Anchorage has a gerat selection. If you are looking for items made in Alaska, look for the official "Made In Alaska" logo. The Ulu Factory in Anchorage has a great selection of those unique cutting tools.

Glaciers Posted February 13, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 13, 2017 The Alaska Native Medical Center Gift Shop is a good place to purchase authentic Alaska Native artwork in Anchorage. http://anmc.org/patients-visitors/craft-shop/ Another is the Alaska Fur Exchange. http://www.alaskafurexchange.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted February 13, 2017 #4 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Here is a soap shop in Juneau: http://www.glaciersmoothie.com In Ketchikan - I like Sam McGee's which is on Creek Street - they have a lot of local food (jams, jellies) and other local items. Tongass Trading (Ketchikan) is going to be your jacket, tshirt, sweatshirt, souvenir cheap place: https://tongasstrading.com/store/ While more Canadian but stores in Juneau is a Jade shop: http://jadestore.com/alaska Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
