"Thank you Jill for leading our bachelorette group of 7, such a great experience!!" -Kaitlin G.
Our group had a fabulous time on the Historical Tour to Truckee and the group that went to Squaw Valley both days enjoyed the history on the drive up there. Your hospitality truly made everyone feel welcome and we received many compliments of your knowledge of Lake Tahoe and your friendly service. Thanks again for a wonderful experience. -One Beacon Insurance
"Great people to work with. Our company partnered with the Tahoe Adventure Company on a promotion, and Katie & Kevin (owners) are extremely professional and have a rock solid reputation in the community. When our vacation rental guests want a guided adventure tour we sent them to the Tahoe Adventure Company!" -Jeff S.
"How lucky we were to have a full moon on one of the few nights we were in North Tahoe. An amazing evening on the water paddling out into the lake, watching the sun set over the horizon on one side and then oh so dramatically the moon rise on the other. A serene experience we would definitely recommend!" Jackie C.

"Our guides Tyler and Rich were awesome delivering out fun facts on the lake and the history as well as keeping the group together and even chiding us with a little Jaws music. Ha!" Helen L.

Kevin - we had a great time yesterday on one of your Guided Snowshoe Tours. Marin was a wonderful guide. She provided a nice balance of keeping us engaged in the environment we were in, guiding us safely, and giving us plenty of space to enjoy being with our family and dogs. Thanks for accommodating our last minute tour - it was well worth it. All the best, Renee
