If you are motion-sickness prone, take your remedies at least 1 hour in advance.
We used Neil's transport service for our stay at White Sulfur Springs cabin. We cannot say enough great things. Boat was in tip top shape and Neil and Tyler were very knowledgeable about the area and wildlife, so we feel very spoiled in our transport trips back and forth from Sitka. We did not do a whale tour but I can only assume from our interactions with the company that it would be stellar! Cannot recommend the company enough, you will not be disappointed.
