Captain Rick was an amazing tour guide. Friendly and very knowledgeable. We had the ship all to ourselves. He took 4 of us around Sitka to see some of the best sites and animal sightings. We saw several whales, Sea otters, Eagles, and sea lions. Would highly recommend him and his tour to anyone!

This was the most amazing experience. Captian Rick was awesome. He knew right where the whales were and how they would react. This was a great small group experience. Would highly highly recommend
