Small Tour have us a great day in Sitka.
We wanted a small tour that went to three places as opposed to the cruise ship larger tour that went to only two. We were not disappointed. There were only six of us. Our guide Faye was informative and personable. We went to the Raptor centre, the bear rescue as well as the totem park. I would highly recommend Baranof Tours. Well organized, easy to find as they are right where the cruise ships drop you off! With a smaller group you get a much more personal experience. Thanks for a great day in Sitka on our only damp day of our trip! What a surprise Sitka was, one of our favorite stops…

Review of: Simply Amazing Sitka Tour: Fortress of the Bear, Alaska Raptor, & Totems
There are many tour options for Sitka, but we were very pleased and surprised by the professionalism of Michael, our guide. All three stops were made more enjoyable with his stories and history lessons.

A learning adventure
Review of: Simply Amazing Sitka Tour: Fortress of the Bear, Alaska Raptor, & Totems
All I can say is wonderful. The fish were spawning in the river at the totem pole park, after watching Disney+ Alaska rescue centers it was a pleasure to go to the raptor center and see it in person. And the Bears looked happy and well taken care of. It was very enjoyable, the only downside is I wish I had more time to spend at each location. The guides were very informative and answered all the questions given.…
