    My wife and I had a wonderful experience with Sitka Walking Tours!Our guides, Laine and Leah, were fantastic. They were incredibly knowledgeable about the local flora and fauna and made the tour both interesting and enjoyable. They were friendly, patient, and happy to answer all of our questions along the way. Their knowledge and enthusiasm really helped us appreciate the beauty and natural history of Sitka even more. We would definitely recommend Sitka Walking Tours, and especially Laine and Leah, to anyone visiting the area!
