Clearly Tahoe kayaking with a glass-bottom kayak was awesome! Shoutout to Savannah for being an excellent guide. Although you can see well with the glass bottom, I brought my waterproof phone case. The water is so clear and the only way to really experience it is on the water. Book early because their tours sell out.

Our family of 4 (mom, dad and two teens) did the 9am Clear Kayak tour out of Zephyr Cove. Emma was our tour guide and did an excellent job of keeping us entertained and conversing with us while we paddled around the area. She even took photos of us near Cave Rock which she air dropped to us after the tour. They provide a little cooler for your kayak with granola bars and water, along with a waterproof bag to put any valuables in. I recommend booking an early time slot as the water tends to be calmer then. The company was really good at communicating all information about what to do before the tour; what the bring, etc. You could say they were very “clear” in their instructions! Highly recommend!

Excellent way to see Lake Tahoe! Emma was our guide and was very knowledgeable, fun and made everyone feel welcome and comfortable. Groups are small which is nice. Was a wonderful experience! I Highly recommend this company.
