Next level, local vibes, WORTH IT! Don't skimp...you won't regret it! - This hike with Tahoe Outdoor Adventures was worth every penny-and then some! Our family with 2 teen aged boys (13,15 year olds) loved it.! Do yourself a favor and spend the little extra to do this trip! It was as described; unique and totally away from the tourist areas. Our fearless leader, Michelle took us on a private trip to an area that overlooked not just Lake Tahoe but several other high alpine lakes. Ask for her-she is a talented photographer, and cool person to hang out with. I can't recommend this experience enough- It's not too difficult, and it's perfect for the truly adventurous. We live in the Bay Area and compared to the budget hike we booked last year (a crowded stroll along Emerald Bay surrounded by sightseers), this was on another level. 10 out of 5 stars for this great local company! They also have other fun hikes that we cant wait to try next season.

Birthday Lake Tahoe hike to Summit - Tahoe Outdoor Adventures and Jeff,
Thank you for a wonderful experience. My wife and I enjoyed every minute of our 2 hour summit . We originally had planned a snow shoe hike but due to the lack of snow in the Tahoe area we chose a hike instead . Mitchell had communicated well with us and gave us an option to cancel but we choose to do a hike instead and take in the outdoors of Lake Tahoe. Jeff our tour guide was awesome. An experienced climber and hiker . He was constantly checking on us and took plenty of breaks and also took many pics and videos of us climbing up. We had so much knowledge of the area . I would definitely recommend this company and Jeff. Thank you guys for such an amazing time especially on my birthday.

Challenging and great experience - This was the highlight of our trip to Lake Tahoe. Our guide was professional and knowledgeable and without his help we would never have reached the top of the mountain. Thanks Jeff!

Exceptional, truly unique! - Excellent, truly unique experience! Well worth every penny to see some less traveled, beautiful areas .We adventured through incredible rock formations to lake vistas-way more fun for the teenagers than just a hike! The crew is top-notch, professional and extremely welcoming. We recommend this 10/10!

Words dont do justice for Michelle and this experience. - This was our first time getting to experience a mountain hike and Michelle went above and beyond to make sure we were all taken care of and had a great time. We were a family of 7 people from 10yo to 45yo and with varying fitness levels from not fit to good fit. Hence we were all amazed how single handedly (and with some help from her dog), she took care of everything and helped us get the best pictures too. I am not one for doing much reviews but this definitely deserves it. Michelle’s experience and passion really comes through. She has motivated all of us to get more adventurous.

Tahoe Outdoor Adventures... - Tahoe Outdoor Adventures did a great job as a team-Michelle calling the day before to ensure they “right -sized” the hiking trail for our family. Trent, our Adventure Advisor, did a fantastic job sharing his knowledge and experience of the area.

Our second time-10 out of 5 stars! - This was the highlight of our trip thanks to the amazing staff at Tahoe Outdoor Adventures and our fantastic host, Matt! The sights were beyond our expectations and the trip was as exhilarating as promised! We called their office and were able to book a last minute private trip. I highly recommend this company and excursion to anyone looking for a more authentic and intimate Lake Tahoe experience! 10/10!

Personable expert guide—unique experience - This is a real gem. Our guide Trent personally touched base with our group over the phone the day before to discuss plans. This is not a one size fits all experience: Trent will work with you to come up with an activity that fits your personal interest and comfort level. We settled on a hike which involved some heights and even some scrambling. Unfortunately, one of the members of our group ended up a bit in their head about the heights. Trent did a tremendous job of soothing them, getting us back to a lower point, and on the fly provided us with a lake hike which I will never forget! I wholeheartedly recommend this experience, you will have an amazing time. Thank you Trent!!!
