The Tahoe Experience

Tour Schedule

We offer various tour times throughout the day so you can choose whichever option fits your schedule best. All tours last approximately 4 hours. All cruises will include sight-seeing, water sports, and time to anchor and relax on the boat to play with the water toys/paddle boards, and enjoy snacks and beverages.

Morning Magic Tour: 9AM-1PM

Without a doubt the most magical time to be out on the lake! Less people and boat traffic out and about = pristine, glassy waters. This tour is ideal for those who want a smooth ride and an easier time paddle boarding.

Afternoon Adventure Tour: 1:30PM-5:30PM

This tour is during the warmest and busiest time of the day. A perfect tour to soak in as much sun as possible! Plus, you can sleep in a little and still start off your day with some adventure!

Sunset Cruise Tour: 6PM-8PM

Evenings are magical on the lake. The winds die down for a smooth and glassy lake that reflects the picturesque mountains and trees. Emerald Bay is extra beautiful during magic hour. Starting later in the day, this is a great tour for those that prefer a more relaxing tour and plenty of photo opportunities. The perfect time to unwind after a full day of Tahoe adventure!

					If you’re looking for the best cruise in Tahoe, this is it! I’ve been on a few boats for bachelorette parties and this by far was the best one! There was something to do for everyone and to top it off our outgoing, famous captain Bret showed us all the best spots!!

					This was the perfect boating experience for us with our two grandsons. It was a beautiful day on Lake Tahoe and we had so much fun with all the water toys. We would recommend this to everyone (families, couples and individuals of all ages). This boat was so enjoyable for all of us to ride on all four hours. We can hardly wait to do it again sometime in the future!

					We went out on the water in the height of the Caldor Fire and Smoke.   Bret was an excellent tour guide and very personable. We would highly recommend this outing to everyone looking to have a good time on Lake Tahoe.  We loved the SUPs , tubing, and swimming. The photos including drone footage was an added surprise. Loved our trip!!  If you want to have the experience of a lifetime, book your trip with Bret.

					This was hands down the best day on the water my family and I have ever had! Bret was awesome and he had so many fun activities to fill up the four hour tour. He had paddle boards, a lily pad, inner tubing, it was incredible! Not to mention his vast knowledge about the lake and its history. I highly recommend him and we will definitely be back!!!

					Bret took us out on the AM morning cruise. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. He was an amazing Captain/Host, showed us the sights, local Tahoe info and amazing coves to anchor at. My kids, wife and I loved all the toys he had with him. He took photos and drones videos to capture the amazing experience. Will recommend Bret and his charter to anyone heading to the lake!!
