    Sitka, Alaska

      Whether you're sampling fresh salmon, studying the symbolic artistry of Tlingit totem poles or taking a picture in front of the onion-domed cathedral, you'll find that Sitka has its own special beauty and charm. Once the capital of Russian America, you'll see relics from a czarist past in historic parks and museums.
      Sample shore excursions:
    • 4x4 Wilderness Adventure: After a boat ride through the island and channels of Sitka Sound arrive at Kruzof Island and begin your exploration through Southeast Alaska's temperate rainforest onboard a 2-person off-road vehicle. Drivers must be at least 16 years old.
    • Colonial Russian America & Cultural Tour: Distinctive periods of Alaskan history have been well preserved and are viewable within this Island community of Sitka. From the early American Indian civilization, through the Russian Colonial period, and Pacific Theatre involvement of World War II, Sitka has preserved much of those eras for you to relive when you visit the Sheldon Jackson Museum, St. Michael's Cathedral and view a performance of the Archangel Dancers.
    • Dry Suit Snorkel: Snorkel in Sitka Sound! You will be provided all necessary instruction and dry suit equipment to stay warm and buoyant during your 45-minute snorkel.
    • Historic Sitka & Nature Walk: Your guided 2.5-mile walk begins at the base of Castle Hill and includes visits to Sitka National Historical Park and the Alaska Raptor Center. The tour operator will provide a complimentary ticket to independently visit St. Michael's Cathedral.
    • Sitka Bike Tour: Embark on a guided adventure to experience a Sitka seldom seen by visitors. After a short drive to Theobroma Chocolate Factory, the starting point of your adventure, gear up, receive safety instructions and begin your bike ride on a path nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the mountains. Your ride passes Old Sitka, site of the historic battle between Tlingit Indians and the Russian Navy nearly 200 years ago, and crosses Starrigavin Creek, where, in season, you may see salmon spawning in the creek.
    • Sea Life Discovery Semi-Submersible: The waters of the North Pacific, including Sitka Sound, are some of the most productive the world. On this tour, you'll board the Sea Life Discovery, Alaska's only semi-submersible tour vessel, and immerse yourself in this amazing underwater world while remaining comfortable, warm and dry. A local naturalist will provide background information about the marine environment of Sitka Sound and commentary on the passing sea life.
    • Sitka Sportfishing: Sitka Sound and its adjacent waters are teeming with a wide variety of fish, dramatic views and wildlife. Board a fully equipped fishing vessel and your experienced captain will guide you to favorite spots for salmon fishing. If you wish, your catch can be prepared locally (flash frozen or smoked) and shipped to your home for an additional charge (US addresses only) payable at the conclusion of your tour.

    Vancouver, British Columbia

      Every bit as cosmopolitan as Seattle, with a distinctive European flair, Vancouver is the Canadian jewel of Puget Sound. From the cobblestone streets of the Gastown district to Little Italy and Chinatown, Vancouver has something for everyone.

    • Vancouver, Whistler & Wilderness Sightseeing with airport drop-off - VA27 - Vancouver, British Columbia
