Alaska Side By Side Nature Safari
You’re in Alaska and you’re surrounded by sights you’d never see in the lower 48. Don’t go on a tour – go on an adventure! See wildlife and a volcano on a 5-hour small-group safari from Sitka, Alaska.
Itinerary
You’ll be picked up at your hotel and taken to Kruzof Island by boat. The island is uninhabited and is part of the Tongass National Forest. You’ll see volcanic outcropping formed by the island’s Mount Edgecumbe, a now dormant volcano.
Your guide will show you how to operate your OHV. Then hop on and go explore! Enjoy zipping around and traveling over rugged terrain. See things you’d never see on a bus tour or on your own.
Ride along logging roads and go through a lush forest. You’ll go to Iris Meadows which is the best place in the Sitka area to see Alaska Coastal brown bears. Observe Alaskan wildlife in their natural habitat. Sightings could include brown bears, Alaskan blacktail deer, and bald eagles.
Your guide will lead you to a black sand beach. You’ll stop there to enjoy a snack. Listen to stories about Sitka adventures. Your guide will also tell you about the unique plants and animals on Kruzof Island.
The scenic beauty of the island is amazing. Be sure to bring your camera to capture incredibly beautiful photos you can share with your family and friends on Social Media. Take pictures of the black sand beach and Mount Edgecumbe with the rugged coastal mountains in the distance.
You’ll drive your OHV back to the boat for the return voyage to Sitka. Your captain will weave through islands and narrow channels. This is an opportunity for more photos of Alaska’s unspoiled natural beauty. Be on the lookout for sea otters, seals, and sea lions.
This will be an Alaskan adventure you’ll never forget!
