Bruce gassing our vans up for the last time Tuesday and powering washing them for the last time today! 🤞 🙏🏻 ❤️

Fun fact!:
Bruce came up with the idea of Sitka Wildlide Tours in 2000. He kept working for Sea Mart but was planning our new adventure while I did day care in our home.
He came up with the idea after a cruise we took and he came home saying he could do the same as our guide did for us! My question to him was what will you show tourist?? He said every thing we take granted for! He was sooooo right!!

This year alone we took 8629 clients on tour with our vans and 612 people on our boat tours!!
But without our amazing guides/team we couldn’t have done it without them!! We have been blessed every year with the MOST AMAZING TEAMS!

Rhonda and Bruce met us at waiting area. Nice .Our tour operator was Bret. He was knowledgeable and very helpful. My wife has some trouble descending stairs and Bret was very in tune with her needs. He was genuinely concerned about our safety. Please tip appropriately. We think he deserves your support.

Guided Marine life tour
Tripadvisor review: Sitka Shore Excursion: Whale-Watching and Marine Life Tour
The process from booking, on line thru the Trip Adviser app, to launch was seamless, easy and straightforward!! We met Bruce and Rhonda at the designated meeting point the next morning. The price was reasonable for a guided tour and a wealth of information.

Their boat only holds six people so it was very close and intimate. The catamaran was newer, clean and very comfortable for a small boat!. The best part of our journey was the captain: Frank!!!

He was a local who new the water and land intimately and informed us on all the sights. Moreover, we were very lucky or Frank delivered with all the goods! We saw all the marine life you can ask for and got a bonus as we sighted a Momma brown bear with two cubs from about 100 feet out!

Sitka Shore Excursion: Whale-Watching and Marine Life Tour Will not disappoint!!!! If you want safe, friendly, clean, and affordable, pick this company and enjoy !!!

Viator review: Premium Sitka Scenic Tour: Alaska Raptor Center, Fortress of the Bears,Totems!
Our guide, Bret was excellent! Knowledgeable and efficient. His tour was full of interesting facts about Sitka, the totems, the raptor center and the bear sanctuary. If you want to see all 3 sites plus a few others, sign up for this tour in Sitka. In general, any tour I have signed up for through Voator, has been Excellent.
