Great Boat Trip on Lake Tahoe! - We had a great trip with Captain Bryan on his beautiful red boat. Even though the water was a little choppy, we made the most of it and had a fantastic time. Bryan is incredibly knowledgeable about the lake’s history, and we really enjoyed learning from him. We were able to swim in Emerald Bay—the water was brisk, but absolutely beautiful. Camp Richardson, where we met Bryan, was lively and full of energy, with a live band, great entertainment, and cold rum runners (be sure to get a floater on top!).

10 out of 10 the best - Bryan is the most amazing Captain! Super laid back and very knowledgeable about the lake and its history. The boat is so comfortable and easy to get in and out of. Plus it’s just a super cool boat! I would recommend and do this tour over again myself! My two sons got to jump in and we saw bald eagles and osprey! Just an all around great trip!

Fantastic Day on Lake Tahoe - We had such a great trip with Bryan. He was incredibly accommodating (invited our small pooch Archie aboard with enthusiasm), friendly, capable and knowledgable. From geology to the Washoe Tribe to modern history to celebrity homes, Bryan has to be one of the true experts on the spectacularly gorgeous Lake Tahoe. His Mariah boat is comfortable and beautiful. We’ll be back very soon!
