“Wonderful Marine Wildlife tour”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 6, 2009
2
people found this review helpful

It was a windy and rainy day on 20 Sep 09 when we went on the Marine Wildlife Tour with Captain Davey. We were initally concerned the wild weather would make for an uncomfortable outing but we were kept warm and comfortable in Esther G's heated cabin, and Captain Davey's lively commentary. He thoughtfully loaned us binoculars, and shared with us highlights of the the beautiful Sitka Sound. It was too late in the season for puffins but we saw humpback whale, grey whale, rafts of male sea otters, sealions, many bald eagles and other sea birds. We had a wonderful time and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour to our friends. The home baked oatmeal chunky chocolate cookies were marvellous!

“Captain Davey - Puffins and Whales tour on the Esther G II”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 25, 2009

What a fabulous tour. Captain Davey is personable, knowledgeable and provides a tour full of fun. We were lucky to see bubble net feeding humpbacks, rafts and rafts of sea otters, and had a totally magificent tour to what he calls "The Centre of the Universe" - St. Lazaria Island. What beautiful birds!

This was definitely a highlight of our trip to Alaska and definitely a tour we will never forget. Having his wonderful dog Louie along only enhanced our trip.

Thanks Captain Davey for a wonderful time. We hope to be back to your beloved Sitka again someday!
