With this port, there wasn’t much to do. We just walked around a little bit and then went on a little small tour and we did wheel watching and there really wasn’t any whales. We only saw like one.

We hiked ….didn’t go as far as we wanted, because we got a little worried about the Bears, and it was the salmon in the river and dumb advice from people. We decided against it….. but we did 3 miles. It was beautiful.

Liked a lot because less busy.

The Hubby and I were on a 7 day Alaska Cruise and Sitka was on the schedule. As usual, I scoured VIATOR looking for a private or semi-private tour to give us an in depth experience to Sitka. We ended up booking with Sitka Wildlife Tours. From our Cruise ship, we boarded a local bus (no charge/complimentary) to take us to the Chamber of Commerce meeting destination for the Wildlife tour. Very easy to follow instructions ;) We boarded the cargo mini van and Brett, our tour guide for the excursion began our Sitka adventure! The tour included visits to the Alaska Raptor Center, Fortress of the Bear Sanctuary, and the Sitka National Historical Park, featuring the iconic totem poles. Each stop offered a unique glimpse into the natural beauty and cultural richness of this incredible region.

True Alaska Tours and the Alaska Raptor Center were worth a visit.

It was very enjoyable. We went to the salmon hatchery and did the tour there. We also visited a museum. Both were excellent.

Very nice people in town. Our bus driver into town saw us waiting for the bus to go back to the ship after she got off work. She offered us a ride back to the ship and gave us a short trip around town to show it off.

Pretty harbor dotted with lots of little islands, all watched over by a majestic mountain range. The town itself is not particularly winsome, even though the Homesteaders Home (large, old old folks home) is picturesque.

Our first port and such a pleasant little town for getting acquainted with what is typically Alaskan. Sitka is entirely walkable. We saw no reason to book a tour here. Strolled the town, then had ice cream at an old fashioned drug store. soda fountain.

Participated in two ship sponsored tours. The semi-submersible was not up to expectations, water too murky to see much. Should have taken the wild-life tour.
