They were a no-show. This was supposed to be the highlight of my cruise to Alaska and my one-and-only tour in Sitka on July 16, 2023. The pick-up location and time was confirmed with Ellie via email before my arrival. I arrived early at Centennial Hall (approx. 1:40 p.m.) and waited at the Tours and Excursions pickup area as per the instructions from Selkie Snorkel. At 2:09 p.m., with no sight of the purple van, I spoke to Fiona inside Centennial Hall and she was kind enough to place a call to their main line on my behalf but no one answered. Fast forward to 3:23 p.m., while waiting outside Centennial Hall (still), I decided to leave. It wasn't until I got back on the ship that I read the email from Selkie Snorkel claiming that they waited at Centennial Hall until 2:15 p.m. This is completely FALSE. After emailing my complaint, Ellie was apologetic and issued a refund to my credit card (which I appreciated). I don't know why they didn't show-up. Mistakes happen. But to claim that you did show-up when you clearly didn't is NOT ok. In closing, there were some important lessons from this experience: 1.) For Tour Operators: If no one is going to be on-site to answer the main line, activate the call forwarding so that incoming calls are re-directed to the on-duty cell. 2.) For myself, bring your cell phone with you while ashore and make sure it is capable of placing and receiving calls and texts.

Awesome day. Our guide Peter was amazing. Magic island was very cool and easy to get to. Saw lots of fun things under the sea.

Scott was a great guide. The weather was perfect and 60 foot visibility. Hundreds of star fish and anemones at Magic Island. Water was 62F, but the suits did a great job of keeping out the cold. I've snorkeled at numerous Caribbean Islands, but this experience was so different and unique because of the environment. It was so worth it.
