Hello! The crew of the M/V Sikumi would like to invite you on a specially designed trip 10 day voyage from Petersburg Alaska to Seattle via the Inside Passage. We are offering a unique sightseeing adventure through stunning coastal waterways.

Aboard the Sikumi, you will have all the comforts of home. There will be an experienced deckhand/chef who will prepare wholesome meals at sea in our spacious galley. All of the Sikumi's four roomy cabins come complete with their own sink, head, and shower. At any time, you can find restful solitude in your semi-private room. Play cards, read a book or just enjoy the view from the lounge area (salon) of the boat. We have just enhanced the over all feeling of the Sikumi with an extensive remodel in the Salon and pilot house. Laundry facilities are included on the vessel also.

As a seasoned travel writer, I have made this voyage numerous times in the last ten years and recognize that it is a complex and demanding passage. Our crew for this trip will include one licensed captains with extensive experience in Alaskan waters and log history in the Inside Passage. Not only will we show you a safe and comfortable voyage, we also look forward to providing you with a pleasurable and scenic adventure.

We will be sure to take full advantage of the flexibility of this journey to enjoy the natural opportunities that arise in friendly company. Each day we will gather together to decide what activities to pursue. You may choose from kayaking, guided hikes, fishing, birding, whale watching and more.

We will be traveling through Canada so passports or american driver licence will be necessary . Binoculars and cameras with plenty of film are always popular on this trip.
