You can tell these tours and experiences are created with love for the island and people! Everything was perfect and fully catered. Thank you Bumble Expeditions ❤️
The Island is gorgeous. Situated just a short boat ride from Sitka proper, you have everything you could possibly need. Spectacular views! Sea life! And the tremendous hospitality of Sara and Cole who provide a welcome and cheerful home away from home. I love the place. Highly recommend it anyone.
Bumble Expeditions is truly a once in a lifetime experience. This is a fantastic tour that is full of splendid views of Sitka Sound’s spectacular nature and wildlife. Sarah and Cole are amazing hosts sharing their love and knowledge of the area. This is not a corporate tour with a cookie cutter experience. Sarah & Cole will listen to your individual interests and make sure you have a memorable experience.
Cole and Sara are so much fun to go out on the water with. They are careful and safe and know what they are doing. Getting out on the water is really the best way to see Sitka and the area. The wildlife if so awesome and so much fun to see. You won’t want to miss this opportunity to experience Sitka this way.
Our family stayed here and we had a blast! Sara and Cole are amazing hosts and the island is beautiful. The fishing is great in the area as well. Tons of wildlife and gorgeous sites to see. I highly recommend visiting!
