Went about 6 miles to Fortress of the Bear. Got in and as he starts to drive he said I'm going to charge you an extra $10 and give you a little tour on the way. I literally thought he was joking and laughed. No joke - he pulls into two spots and tells us random stories the entire ride. At our destination he says - $20, plus $10 that will be $30! What a racket - we had no choice in the matter and he just expects he can charge $10 extra that we did not want! We took a $2 per person bus ride (stop right by the Fortress of the Bear) on the way home - didn't want to call this taxi ever again.

Upon arrival, one window had a missing shade, there was no chair to sit on in the room, there were no bedside reading lamps and the comforters on the beds were lumpy because the stuffing had formed into mounds. On top of all that right below my window was an open parking area behind Ernie's bar, which proved to be a gathering place for locals who loudly enjoyed themselves into the wee hours of the morning. All of which made sleeping close to impossible and there was absolutely no response from hotel staff. Said there was nothing they could do about it and frankly, were surly in the process. Stay away is my advice.

We boarded the boat which was new, clean and beautifully designed, plus it had SUPER comfortable seats.  Before we even left the local bay, we saw multiple whales and seals. We went to several areas to see more amazing whales, salmon jumping out of the water, otters and a waterfall! We were able to sit inside or go on the front or back decks for photos or to hang out a bit and observe the natural beauty around us. As a fellow nature lover, It was fun that Captain Gary was excited to see the whales as well even after having grown up in Sitka and seeing them many times before.  He was a wealth of knowledge about the wildlife and area, plus relaxed and easy going.  I appreciate the details about the whales names and that he recently found out how some were related. This was our favorite tour of our entire cruise, hands down.  We'll recommend Captain Gary's Sitka Adventures to everyone traveling to the area!

The not-so-good: - Room service is only once a week. This isn't really a huge deal for me, but this place is just not setup and organized around this idea. For example: I was staying for 9 days but I only got 3 pouches of coffee? So I had to go down to the counter and ask for more every 3 days? You should have supplies for your entire stay. - You get to choose which day room service will come. I chose Monday and then...Monday came and went and...they didn't come. I told the front desk, and they came on Tuesday and did a great job, but this was right before I left so I didn't get to bask in the pristineness of it all. - Pillows are horrible. They are WAY WAY WAY too plump. See my photos. They are almost like cubes of pillow. Just as fat as they are wide as they are long. They hurt my neck so bad that I slept without a pillow most nights. No, I am not exaggerating. I asked the front desk about this and they were eager to give me different or more pillows, but this doesn't solve the problem as all the pillows in the whole facility are the same chonker-shaped plumpboiz. (that sentence ain't gonna age well...) They need to get some slimmer/flatter pillows! All pillows in in the whole dang facility are carbon copies of each other, so this issue is unfixable. - Parking is overrun. If you're lucky there will be one spot left. If you're not, you're going to have to use street parking somewhere. - There was a steak in my fridge from the previous guest. - Wi-Fi is slow and constantly boots you off. It's the type that has a pop-up window that makes you type the password, rather than saving the password in your Wi-Fi settings. I sometimes had to reboot my computer multiple times to trick this pop-up window into coming up so that I could re-type the exact same password I had typed dozens of times before. If you need to get work done, go to the library. The Wi-Fi here is too spotty and obnoxious. If you like thick, springy, plump pillows, I can recommend this place without uh...reservation. If you don't, bring your own pillow. Seriously.

Captain Brad's small boat fits 6 passengers perfectly. We were lucky - the weather was dry, slightly warm with blue skies and calm waters. We saw momma bears with her 2 cubs catching salmon, lots and lots of salmon by the hatchery, whales, otters and sea lions plus an occasional bald eagle. The captain communicates with his fellow captains, and steers the boat to locations where the wildlife could be found. Overall, the trip was well paced, not rushed and we had plenty of time to enjoy watching the wildlife. Great tour and fairly priced. One of the highlights of our entire trip to Alaska.
