Amazing Historic tour of Lake Tahoe - Our tour guide Nevada Smith was very knowledgeable about Lake Tahoe, the History and important facts. We appreciated his narrative and stops we made throughout the trip. My husband and I would not have wanted to drive this ourselves. We highly recommend this tour!

Great tour around Lake Tahoe!! - What a wonderful tour! Our guide was so very informative, funny and engaging the whole time! I learned so much about Lake Tahoe, the area, the history, the 1960 Olympics and the people who were instrumental in the development. We stopped the perfect number of times at the most beautiful places around the lake for photos or to walk around. As a first time visitor I really loved the opportunity to get the "lay of the land." Even if you've been here before I think everyone could learn so much by taking this tour.
