5.00I highly recommend this company. They kept me updated with all the details, before the excursions. Jared was our boat captain. He was so friendly, and made sure we were all comfortable. He took us to great spots on the lake, and shared the history with us. This company has wonderful customer service.

5.00Bryan the tour operator was fantastic and very knowledgeable of Lake Tahoe. Prior to the tour he sent us very detailed instructions on the meeting point which we needed being that it was our first time to Lake Tahoe. He told us plenty of interesting information and stories regarding the lake. I highly recommend Bryan.
