    This tour was excellent. The views of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding area were amazing, and we caught a beautiful sunset. The captain was very friendly & informative, and the beverage service was a nice plus. Will definitely do this tour again if/when I return to Lake Tahoe

    From beginning to end, the cruise was a pleasure. The boat accommodates about 30 passengers and had different levels, as well as indoor/outdoor, for comfortable seating. The captain and his mate made everyone feel welcome and at ease and the captain offered great insights along the way. I would highly recommend the cruise.

    Wonderful experience. The weather was perfect. There was smoke in the air from wildfires in the vicinity so you couldn't see as far as normal. The crew were all so great. Friendly and knowledgeable. It is a long walk down the pier to get on the boat, but it’s worth it.
