Seldovia Nature Tours

Join me for a custom walking tour or hike in Seldovia! If you are interested in natural and cultural history, birds, wildflowers, photography, and tidepools, this will be a good fit for you. I will work with you to create an experience that is a perfect fit for your interests and abilities, whether it’s a relaxing stroll around town or a hike in the wilderness.

I’ve been running my woman-owned, single-employee business since 2018, and strive to create a travel experience of the sort I would like to have myself: affordable, human-powered recreation, quality insider knowledge with a local guide, personal attention, and small group size. Contrary to the current travel industry practices, rather than selling you an expensive package deal, I take an à la carte approach. You only pay for the services or items that you want.

Located across Kachemak Bay from Homer, Seldovia is accessible only by boat or plane and offers you a vacation from your vacation. It’s the perfect place to get away from it all, see the real Alaska, and take a big breath of fresh air. Although it’s an easy day trip from Homer, I recommend you spend at least one night. No matter how long you stay, you’ll wish you had more time here.

As part of my low carbon footprint lifestyle, I don’t own a vehicle. If you’d like to go beyond the Main Street area we will hire a taxi or rent a golf cart. This supports other local businesses and makes your tour custom-tailored to your needs.

I keep it simple and organic, and go with the flow — or “live by the tide,” as we say here in Seldovia!

Hope to see you here soon.

Cindy Mom, Owner and Guide Naturalist

Inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility statement:
At Seldovia Nature Tours, I believe that all people have the right to a close connection to the natural world, and opportunities to learn about nature. Only by embracing inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility as values will we be able to foster a love of nature in all people and inspire them to be active stewards of the environment. Seldovia Nature Tours is a safe space where I welcome BIPOC, LGBTQ+, people with disabilities, and anyone who has felt excluded. I will do my best to accommodate your needs and make your time in Seldovia a great experience.

Arctic Dog Adventure Co.

At Arctic Dog Adventure Co., we have a genuine interest in taking care of our clients, our community, and the distinctive landscapes of Northern Alaska. Our speciality is long distance travel by dog sled, providing low-impact access to pristine wilderness areas. We offer dog sled tours rooted in principles of sustainability, authenticity and “rustic luxury” — warm, comfortable accommodations in the most remote and wild places, and an emphasis on utilizing locally sourced ingredients and products. To us, ecotourism is about offering our clients a responsible, authentic Alaskan experience. Travel by dog team is an ideal way to realize this. Sled dogs have been part of the Northern landscape for millennia. Their thick fur, tough pads and indomitable desire to pull make them perfect companions in Northern travel and exploration.   Our dogs are the heart and soul of our operation. We pride ourselves on offering our huskies the highest standard of dog care possible. Guests who visit us will meet dogs that are happy and content. It brings us great joy to share our love and respect for our dogs, and the landscapes of Interior Alaska, with others.
