Visiting Lake Tahoe for the first time or looking for some other things to do?

I look forward to meeting you, - ed broadbelt (captain/owner), real reviews from real cruise tahoe customers., itsallgood4me.

Several of my friends raved about this tour that my friends and I wanted to take it. We were staying in South Lake Tahoe and opted for the boat ride to the Lodge rather than driving up to Incline Village and taking a bus to the Lodge (there is no public parking at the Lodge so these are your only options). So glad that we spent the extra $$ for the boat ride. Stacy, our captain, gave us an informative talk about the sites we saw on the way and her crew, Chris, kept the guests happy with drinks and danish on the way to the Lodge. Stacy took us on a tour of the lodge explaining the history in detail. The Thunderbird boat was quite a site. We enjoyed a nice lunch outside on the grounds. I had requested a gluten free meal and they served me a very nice lunch. The ride back was equally as nice and I got to sit up front and talk with Stacy some more. She was very sweet and gave me ideas on places to dine at and other sites to see. This is a tour not to be missed if you are in South Lake Tahoe!

We took the 5 hour tour to Thunderbird and it was awesome. Our Captain was so good with my kids and gave an interesting tour. Lunch was great in an idyllic setting. It was expensive but considering the length of the stay and the tour, we felt it was well worth it.

August 2016

We had a wonderful captain take us on a 2 hour cruise to the Thunderbird Lodge on Tahoe’s East Shore. He was very knowledgeable of the history of that side of Lake Tahoe and made the cruise very interesting. A light continental breakfast was served on the narrated leisurely cruise.

Tahoe is a beautiful boat and the 2 member crew were amazing. There were just 8 passengers on our cruise.

September 2022

A beautiful boat and a fun crew to take you to a very historic location full of cool history all the way back to the early settlers of the west and gold rush. Drinks on board and a great way to see the lake.

August 2015

We took the Tahoe from Zephyr Cove up to the Thunderbird Lodge. It was about 2 hours but didn’t seem like it. The boat is beautiful, and they served refreshments and danish on the way. The captain and mate were very knowledgeable about the boat and the lake.

BrianKSanDiego

September 2017.

We booked the excursion that included a wonderful two hour boat ride from Zephyr Cove to the Whittlel House, and Thunderbird. Our boat captain and tour guide Stacy was top notch. She knew the story of many important properties along the lake, and took the time to share them with us and answer questions too. The tour of the property was truly memorable! It was a day well spent!!

October 2022

We did the east shore tour with Thunderbird Lodge. Amazing tour. The 2 man crew was great. Very knowledgeable about the area and the Lodge. Told us about many former residents of the houses along the shore. The tour at the lodge was wonderful and very informative. I learned a lot. We ate lunch on the grounds with amazing views all around. The sites from the boat were amazing.

August 2018

I took both of their cruises. The boat is lovely. The crew, Stacey and Chris were fabulous. Both of their tours were very informative and fun. I highly recommend.

August 2019

This is an excellent way to spend a portion of the day. A beautiful boat trip from Zephyr Cove to the incredible Thunderbird Lodge. Along the way you will get a narrated tour of the Lake Tahoe coastline. The Lodge is beautiful and extremely interesting. The walking tour will take you through the property and give you the history of George Whittell. We were offered a continental breakfast on the boat and a nice lunch at the lodge. Your guides are fun, interesting and informative. This is a really good tour. Highly recommended.

Which end of the lake is best for a couple looking to:

Sit by pool

Explore the lake on foot and or canoe

To town for dinner at night

Thanks in advance

3 replies to this topic

' class=

both are nice. North is quieter

South has some nice lake walks such as Rabe Meadows.

For pools, the nicest place is the Edgewood in South Lake tahoe.

or also the Marriott if want a condo style room in Heavenly Village.

Heavenly Village has restaurants, movies, comedy club

North Lake tahoe you need to drive to the restaurant but do have lake views like in the south such as at Riva Grill

If into casinos and night life, Stateline (Nevada) is best for that - and adjacent to South Lake Tahoe.

' class=

We are planning 3 nights at Ritz and 3 nights at Edgewood in June. Any thoughts on things we should definitely do? Plan on boat cruise to Emerald Bay. Thanks

Some of the other things to do is the state museum in Carson City, Virginia City,

For Lake Tahoe, take a walk by the lake and also visit Bijou Park.

The fish viewing place on west side Lake Tahoe is also good.

There is also a small history museum in south Lake Tahoe.

You may want to start you own post - but your choice of places Tom are wonderful.
