Want to visit Sitka, Alaska, in 2025? Of course you do! It's my favorite city in Alaska; let me show you why...

Listen as I sit down (virtually) with Tonia from Visit Sitka to discuss what visitors need to know and what's new in Sitka this coming year. There are some awesome new tours and experiences in Sitka that you'll want to add to your list – along with the popular things to do that you shouldn't miss, like the Fortress of the Bear, Raptor Center, and Totem Park.

In the Q&A, Tonia answers the following questions:

  • How do you get to town from port?
  • What are the best hikes to do in Sitka?
  • What's the whale watching in Sitka like?
  • What can you do if you're NOT on an organized cruise excursion in Sitka?
  • Do you need a car to get around Sitka?
  • This is the audio-only version of the Sitka video in my 2025 Alaska Seminar Series. You can watch the video version on YouTube.
