Excellent, helpful and knowledgeable guide for a must do activity to experience the crystal clear waters of Lake Tahoe!!!
This was a great tour! Jacob our guide was wonderful and took lots of pictures for us. The lake was gorgeous. We would definitely recommend.
This was a great experience from the booking, early and clear communication about meeting, parking, and preparation. Our driver of the shuttle was very informative about the tour and highlights of Lake Tahoe with points of interest and dining options. Our guide Daniel was great. Informative about the lake and paced the trip to our group. The kayaks were very sturdy with no fear of tipping. The views through the kayak and lakeside were stunning.would recommend 100 percent!!
It was an amazing experience and adventure and recommend it to anyone that is in Tahoe! The views are breathtaking and our tour guy Lachlan was amazing and full of knowledge!
It wasn't really a tour. We spent a lot of time waiting. Our tour was scheduled to start at 11:00 a.m., but we didn't get on the water until noon. Once we were on the water, we spent the vast majority of our time waiting for people to jump off Bonsai Rock and take photos while the rest of the group sat and waited. Once everyone was done, we simply paddled back. If you're only interested in jumping off Bonsai Rock and taking photos, then this tour is for you. However, if you're looking to kayak, explore the lake, and learn about the area, this tour isn't it.
The kayaks were easy to use and the guide was very knowledgeable and very friendly. They took some great pictures too. Highly recommend them. There is a reason they have such good ratings.
The guide was super cool. He let us jump from bonsai rock and took a super cool photo of us.
Everything was pretty clear in instructions, all staff was so nice and helpful. Loved that they also have a shop for last minute forgotten items. My family and I truly enjoyed this whole experience, will be recommending.
Amazing experience and our tour guide Daniel was great! Loved that he got our pictures from up on Bonsai Rock!
Went on a weekday with my partner. Got the chance having Daniel as an instructor. Very respectful & helpful. Answered all our questions & gave us background history of the lake
