If in Sitka on a Wednesday, this is the #1 thing to do. - Not to be missed. It's only on Wednesday so plan ahead. Fabulous dancing. You will be surprised and delighted. The dance group has been going for years with while the dancers are all volunteers, they are worthy of a class A performance.

Amazing dancers and costumes; highly entertaining! - My husband and I attended a performance as part of Holland’s Historical Sitka Tour. Wonderfully engaging, we loved the exquisite and festive costumes. The choreography was stunning, and the dancer who narrated and told stories was absolutely charming. We highly recommend experiencing this performance during your visit to beautiful Sitka! Well done all!

Wonderful show but unhappy with Viator - The show was absolutely wonderful. Very close up and personable. Beautiful, authentic costumes. Lots of history and information. Unfortunately, I am not pleased with Viator. I originally reserved 8 tickets but I tried numerous times to reduce the number to 6. The 6 ticket request did not go through and I was charged on my CC for 8. ;( It really wasn't the money that upset me, it was the principle. Everything in this show is through volunteers and I gave an additional donation anyway.
