Jaren was our captain today & the tour was awesome. Our family of 5 was the only family on the boat, we saw sea lions, otters & gray whales. We enjoyed the beautiful Alaska scenery & info about the city. Jaren was also kind enough to drop us off back at the cruise port instead of the town where we would have had to shuttle back to the ship. Highly recommend!

My family and I were just in Sitka and booked a tour with Sitka Sea Level Adventures for the second time. Just as last time, we had Jaren as our captain and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience aboard as he took us around the coastline surrounding his beautiful hometown. We saw bald eagles, sea otters, sea lions, humpbacks and grey whales, as well as the local lighthouse, volcano and fishing vessels of Sitka. Unlike the excursions that you can book through the cruise ship where you are one of many, Jaren’s tours provide a wonderfully personal, relaxed, and interactive way learn about and experience the best Sitka has to offer. Until next time, thanks Jaren!

Our host was great. We enjoyed seeing Otters, Sea Lions, Eagles, and Gray Whales! A blow-hole (water spout) was also seen onshore. Smelling whale blow was a whole new "treat" (!!). This was a very personal experience (4-5 passenger tour) vs. the typical large-boat "excursion".

Maureen was fun and friendly, she knew where to take us to see otters, seals, and grey whales. We had so many grey whales around us that we could smell their “bad breath” from the blow holes. We were so glad that we booked this private tour rather than going through the cruise ship excursions.

The tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. We saw so many grey whales and were so close, we smelled their “bad breath” from their blow holes.

The trip was absolutely amazing and well worth it. Brody was very kind, knowledge and accommodating. The scenes were breathtaking and we saw all sorts of wildlife including eagles, sea lions and more whales than we can count. It was a wonderful excursion and we are so glad we booked with this small group rather than booking an excursion on the cruise ship. I highly recommend using Sitka Sea Level Adventures!
