A 5 Star Experience!
Oct 2023 • CouplesThis tour was the highlight of our trip! We considered renting a car and going sightseeing ourselves until I saw this tour on TripAdvisor. Trust me when I say: this is the way to go!
Stephanie, our guide/photographer, was amazing. Her love for the area, nature, and wildlife is apparent. She drove us to some of the most beautiful spots around the lake. In addition to her taking our photos at each location, she took the time to give us the history of each area. She also pointed out bear claw marks on the Aspen trees, beaver dams and an eagles nest. She also took us to see the salmon spawning. Absolutely amazing!
The trip was relaxing. Almost like taking a stroll and catching up with an old friend. Stephanie goes at your pace and you never feel rushed. She allows plenty of time for you to take in the sights. We plan on returning to the South Tahoe area with our family and I look forward to booking another tour with Stephanie!
Easy Tour with Amazing Highlights
Oct 2023 • CouplesThis tour was fantastic! Our guide was Jim, and he took us to a nice mix of historical, nature, and even a “secret” place. Along the way, he filled us in with history and relevant facts. He was also super helpful and patient in helping me with camera settings and tips. The small-group size (there were four of us) was an added bonus. This tour is worth every bit of the price.
Best money ever spent. A must do tour
Oct 2023 • CouplesI don’t even know where to begin with this tour. It was outstanding from beginning to end. Doesn’t matter if you are a photographer or hobbyist or just want a couple I phone pics in nice places. The tour was a mix of history, geology, scenic beauty and some photography teaching and tips on either your phones or a DSLR. Jim took several professional photos in the spots and sends them back to you edited. The knowledge of the history and geology of the area was impressive. Jim took us to some less traveled and secret spots with amazing vistas. This tour has something for everyone and Jim was absolutely delightful.

Our perfect day at Lake Tahoe
Sep 2023 • CouplesThis was a great personalized trip. We highly recommend! We loved having Jim as our tour guide, and he offered helpful tips to my husband in photography and took us to amazing places. We appreciated the history and recommendations for our Lake Tahoe visit. He made some fantastic photos to share with us. On another note, the owner Robin went above and beyond to help us out with a rental car situation.
Spectacular in every way!!
