Tidal Taxi is a locally owned tour and ground transportation service based in Sitka. We run two vehicles — a Kia Sorento and a Honda HR-V — from April through October, serving cruise passengers, airport arrivals, and anyone looking to explore southeast Alaska's most scenic 14 miles of road.
Every tour is private and built around your schedule. You tell us what you want to see — eagles, bears, waterfalls, history — and we'll handle the rest. No fixed routes, no crowded buses, no clock-watching.
$150/hour per vehicle. The same rate whether you're two people or five.
Sitka sits at the crossroads of Tlingit, Russian, and American history. Landmarks, totem poles, Castle Hill, and historic architecture — you'll see it all from the road, and your guide can fill in the stories behind what catches your eye.
From bald eagles at the Raptor Center to rescued brown bears at Fortress of the Bear, plus whales, sea otters, and salmon in the waters all around — Sitka is a nature lover's dream.
Rainforest, mountains, waterfalls, and ocean — all within 14 miles of road. Every turn reveals something postcard-worthy. Your phone's camera roll will thank you.
Each tour is private and runs on your clock. Mix destinations, combine stops, or build something custom — just call and tell us what sounds good.

"Best way to see Sitka! Our driver knew every spot — eagles, bears, waterfalls. Felt like getting a tour from a friend, not a bus company. Highly recommend for anyone visiting."
"We got off the cruise ship with zero plans and called Tidal Taxi. Within 20 minutes we were at Fortress of the Bear watching brown bears play. Made our whole Alaska trip."
"Personal, flexible, and genuinely passionate about Sitka. They adjusted the tour to fit our schedule and showed us spots we never would have found on our own. Five stars isn't enough."
