Pleasant Experience - Gorgeous lake, kayak in good condition, kind, helpful staff. You are somewhat limited in the area when it’s is safe to paddle due to the presence of power boats. I forgot there were waves—I should have taken motion sickness med, as I was a bit queasy. Note: The meeting place is by the water’s edge at Commons Beach.

Great equipment and staff, wrong meeting location listed. - Very enjoyable kayaking in the dam inlet and all along the shore line. Just being out on the water was nice. One problem is the meeting point is at the wrong location. I spent considerable time looking for the location and finally asked a person working at the marina, they said the location is wrong and they told me where to go, a long way from the indicated meeting point on Viator.

Great experience to be on Lake Tahoe! - What an AMAZING experience! We did the Sunset Tour on Lake Tahoe. The guides were very nice and shared interesting tidbits on Tahoe. The lake was easy to kayak even for beginners. Will do this again!

Lake Tahoe at its best! - There are fewer ways to experience and enjoy the grandeur that is Lake Tahoe than being out on its water and taking it all in - 360 degrees around you! Tahoe City Kayak Rental affordably and enjoyably made this happen for us. Our beach kayak jockey Zack was extremely nice and helpful, and our three hours on the water very memorable. Highly recommend this experience - whether you've a seasoned Lake Tahoekan or newbies, like we were.

Kayak Trip on a Windy Monday - Wonderful experience. The company is dog-friendly, the views were beautiful and water had a perfect amount of movement. Originally had a 930am but wind was too intense. Employees were super communicative and accommodating for us to reschedule to a noon time slot. I would recommend scheduling something late morning to early afternoon. I would recommend this kayaking experience for customers of all levels.
