Sitka Whale Watching & Wildlife Tour Reviews

Real stories from real travelers who came for the whales and left with memories that lasted a lifetime.

They are the friendliest people and were very informative the whole time. We were able to see a lot of wildlife and many beautiful parts of nature. 10/10 experience and would love to go again.

This was amazing, we saw so many whales, a couple humpback and a ton of gray whales. Highly recommend the small private tour vs a large group/boat.

  • Parker and his crew did an amazing job! He led us right to some phenomenal wildlife, including a mother Humpback whale and her calf. Highly recommend!

  • Captain Parker was phenomenal. He knew exactly where to go to make sure we saw all the wildlife we wanted. We saw 2 kinds of whales, sea lions, bald eagles, otters, salmon, jelly fish, and more! Book with them directly. No need to use an aggregate site that charges this small business a large commission.

  • This is THE tour that you want to take: absolutely amazing. Parker is the COOLEST tour guide you could ask for! Super communicative, texting you throughout to make sure you know where to go. He was on the radio and phone constantly, trying to help make sure we were in the best spot possible to see things. Clearly loves what he does and puts in the effort to share as much wildlife as he can.

  • The entire trip was amazing, from meeting Parker at the top of the ramp (his enthusiasm is contagious) to seeing all of the wildlife! We started with an otter spotting, rolled up in kelp. Then we went on a whale search, which we found, and then we moved on to see the flying salmon, with amazing scenery on the way.

  • I have been on a lot of wildlife watching tours and this by far exceeded any I have been on. The boat captain took his time to make sure we got to see whales in action and boy did we!! This excursion has been the highlight of our trip so far. When I come back to Sitka, I plan to book this tour again. Sitka Expeditions is the tour to book!

  • Parker was the best tour guide ever! We saw whales breach, bears catch and eat salmon, otters, seal ions, bald eagles and more. It was truly an amazing experience.

  • Amazing whale watching and nature tour. This is a smaller boat so it feels like a private tour for the same cost as the large tours. Parker is an amazing tour guide. If you’re cruising to Sitka, you have to book this tour!
