My 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!

Perfect Score!

We 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!

Operator response

Thank you for the fantastic review and for sharing such a glowing experience! We're absolutely thrilled that the last-minute pivot from snowshoeing to hiking worked out so beautifully on that perfect spring day. 😊 It means the world to hear how proactive communication and Jeff's guidance made the day exceed expectations. Jeff will be stoked when we share this—he truly pours his passion for Lake Tahoe, rock climbing stories, local history, and even his photography skills into every tour! We can't wait to welcome you back for another adventure—maybe with the whole family next time? Request Jeff anytime! Thanks again for choosing Tahoe Outdoor Adventures. 🌲🏞️ — Tahoe Outdoor Adventures Team

Fun and adventurous with breathtaking views

My 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!

Operator response

Jen, Thank you so much for the kind review! We're thrilled you and your friend had such a rewarding adventure with Jeff—love that he pushed you on a challenging trail and found those perfect photo spots with epic views. So glad you took time to soak it all in! Hope to see you both again soon. ❄️-Tahoe Outdoor Adventures Team in South Lake Tahoe

We 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!

Operator response

Thank you so much for the glowing review and for coming back again this year! We're thrilled your whole family (ages 7–61) had such a great time snowshoeing with Jeff—he's the best! So happy we could make it family-friendly and memorable. Can't wait to see you next winter! ❄️

Had a great time and got...

Had a great time and got to go up in the middle of a snowstorm. Jeff was great and so was his dog! I’d definitely recommend to anyone who loves the outdoors

Operator response

Thank you for the fantastic review! So glad you had a blast snowshoeing right in the middle of that snowstorm with Jeff (and his awesome dog too)! Perfect adventure for true outdoor lovers. Hope to see you back soon! ❄️-Tahoe Outdoor Adventures Team in South Lake Tahoe

Snowshoeing for all experience levels

The 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.

Exceptional Service and Excitement

Tahoe 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.

We're thrilled to hear that Roxy, Moxie, and our team made your family's snowshoe adventure so special—especially tailoring the groups to fit everyone's pace, interests (photography included!), and creating those unforgettable lake views and fun slides. It means the world to us when families leave with smiles and great memories. We can't wait to welcome you back for more Tahoe adventures anytime! ❄️🏔️ Grateful for guests like you! 🌲
