Get up close to Sitka's resident bear cubs, walk among the Totems, learn their stories. Let us show you OUR Sitka. A Sitka as unforgettable as the images you take home with you.
Sept. 2010, Sharon, We enjoyed a tour with Bruce during our recent cruise to Alaska. It was the highlight of our trip, particularly noteworthy as we had said we didn't want to take a shore excursion of any type. One felt that Bruce really cared about Sitka, the elders and the wonderful nature itself. Thought you might enjoy some of the pictures I took. We will certainly recommend his tour to anyone we know is going to Alaska.
