A Must-Do Lake Tahoe Experience! - We did a 2-hour charter boat tour with Captain Brandon, and it was hands down one of the highlights of our trip! Brandon was laid back, knowledgeable, and an amazing tour guide. From fascinating lake facts to spotting osprey nests, his expertise really made the experience special. After the tour, he gave us fantastic recommendations for places to eat in South Tahoe, which were spot on. We went tubing (which was a blast!) and stopped in a cove near Emerald Bay with gorgeous turquoise waters where we could jump off the back of the boat to swim at our leisure. Brandon took photos for us so we could enjoy the moment without worrying about capturing it ourselves. Doing this early in your trip is a great idea – we went on our first full morning in Tahoe and it set the tone for the rest of our vacation. If you’re on the fence, go for it – worth every penny!
