    Parker was wonderful! He was knowledgeable, has a great sense of humor, and adaptive to our geoup. We had a very exciting, actually, thrilling ride on the North River Polaris vessel. It was a small group of 6, which couldn't have been better. The boat was comfortable and warm. It was a chilly rainy day and we were super comfortable inside. I am an outdoor girl and spent some time on the deck rather than inside. It was so cool!! We saw many whales, otters and bald eagles, including a nesting pair with adolescent chicks. I highly recommend Sitka Expeditions.
