Worth it

We almost skipped this because we thought we could just pick our own restaurants. I’m so glad we didn’t. Every stop was different, the food was incredible, and Bryan shared stories about the area and each restaurant that made the whole experience feel personal. We left completely full and discovered places we never would have found on our own.

Lake Tahoe circle tour

We got picked up at our resort right on time. There were about 45 people with us. Our driver was very friendly. He had lots of information about the area. He was filled with trivia information about the history of the area and its residents--both past and present. He had lots of statistical knowledge--size of Lake Tahoe, gallons of water, etc. Weather cooperated but for a little bit of rain. There were several stops for leg stretching and photo taking. Lunch break in Tahoe City was great. Would highly recommend.
