What do you do when you're not guiding for TAC? Skiing/snowboarding, snowmobiling, mountain biking, hiking, camping, swimming, fishing, bocce, or anything else that gets me outside with my family.

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
"Brian was an excellent guide for our recent sunset kayak tour! He was funny, kept a great pace, and provided lots of interesting info about the area and lake. We highly recommend!" -Christy J.
I just wanted to send a quick 'thank-you' to you and Micah for the entire two day trip you planned. It was really more than we had hoped for in terms of experiencing Tahoe. It was truly an awesome time; and I know that everyone thought it was incredible. Thanks again, I would recommend this to any other person interested in seeing Tahoe. -Dan
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
