5.00My husband, 17-year-old daughter and I had such a great time! Jeff was our guide and was such a great teacher and was also incredibly patient, as my daughter and I were new to dirt bikes. First Jeff made sure we were warm enough and had on all our gear (which he provided). He then let us practice riding them for a few minutes so we could get familiar before he took us on the dirt trails. Maria and I were nervous, but up for the adventure! Lee wasn’t nervous - just ready to go! The trails had lots of manmade bumps, but also obstacles like tree roots and rocks. We all did our best to avoid those. The scenery was beautiful and Jeff made sure to have us stop to take pictures and just enjoy the scenery. I highly recommend!

5.00We had a beautiful day and mild spring temperatures so we pivoted to a hike instead of a snow shoe excursion. I was impressed as the team managing the tour called the day before and prepared us for the change. It truly exceeded our expectations! My daughter and I spent 2 hours with Jeff, our guide, who I rate a 10 out of 10!! He took us to the most beautiful views and shared his vast knowledge of Lake Tahoe and the entire area. He is a rock climber and his love for the outdoors was really inspiring and contagious! He did a lot of storytelling about the lake and the history which was fascinating! He was also a great photographer and we walked away with the coolest pics and a trip we will fondly remember!! I highly recommend the tour and requesting Jeff as your guide! A most memorable and fun day!
Fun and adventurous with breathtaking views

5.00My friend and I did the snowshoe adventure while our families were skiing. Jeff was a fun knowledgeable guide who took us up one of the more challenging trails I’ve done, but so rewarding at the top! He knew all the best spots for memorable pictures and gave us time to explore and relax while we took in the breathtaking views. I would definitely recommend this tour!

5.00We had a party of 8 including a 7 year old and 9 year old and oldest being 61. This was definitely family friendly. Our guide Jeff was amazing and accommodating. I had done private sledding with this company last year and loved it so much we did it again this year and added the snowshoeing. Highly recommend and will definitely be returning next winter!
Had a great time and got...

If you’re thinking about it, just do it!

5.00The guide will adapt to the group and what is comfortable for everyone. It is supposed to be fun and the guide will ensure you do so. Let yourself be challenged or simply enjoy the fresh air of the Tahoe Basin while enjoying the snow.

5.00Tahoe Outdoor Adventures provided an exceptional snowshoe tour for my family in Jan of 2026. Their service and dedication to providing an experience tailored to our needs went beyond what was advertised and expected. We booked a group and were called a day prior to get an understanding of our abilities and expectations. We told them of both my wife’s love for photography and our child’s elementary age. They split our group, one with 20’s and 30’s aged men in a group and another for my family at no extra charge. We each got a unique experience. Our guide (I cannot remember anyone’s names but their dogs Roxy and Moxie were both a joy to have along) told us about the history of Tahoe while taking us on a moderate but very doable trail giving us absolutely insane views of the lake and surrounding areas. The route had unique geology making for limited trees allowing for vista views in a rather short walk. We were comfortably and safely led to areas where we could slide through the snow, experience amazing views, and enjoy our time together as a family. Cannot recommend more, great value, exceptional service and support, fun adventures from cool local people.
