Most tours and shore excursions are built for crowds. Ours are built for deep connection. Sitka Wonders is family owned, independent, and created by people who have spent decades exploring Sitka's magical environment. You’re not joining another packaged tour, you’re stepping into the world of the filmmakers, photographers, scientists, and naturalists who have spent a lifetime falling in love with this place and are passionate about sharing it.
After 16 years of filming across Southeast Alaska for companies like National Geographic, Discovery, and BBC, Ben Hamilton decided to share Sitka’s story in a more personal way. Our films, tours, and trips are led by us and our passion is sharing this place in a meaningufl way with those who venture to this incredible coast.


Everything we do begins with a sense of wonder—the spark that turns observation into understanding. Our tours invite you to slow down, look closer, and rediscover curiosity. In the stillness between moments, you’ll begin to see how Sitka’s wild rhythms connect all living things.
Your visit helps fund local conservation, research, and education initiatives that protect Sitka’s wildlife and community long after your trip ends.

Experience Sitka's wildlife on the big screen like you've never seen it before. Dive underwater, go microscopic, follow great migrations and discover the hidden connections that link this magical world together. Don't miss it while you are in town!
