Say YES to hard things

Amazing experience with our guide Trent who was super helpful and gave me the encouragement to get out of my head and just trust in my ability to follow his lead. I am 54 active...but don't climb and I did fine. I went with my adult boys in their 20s who did amazing. I wore regular workout shoes and my son wore cowboy boots and we ere fine. The view was spectacular. Highly recommend. It was daunting at 1st and had to take a couple of catch my breath breaks and take one step at a time and made it. What seemed impossible was made possible, by a mindset shift and Trents support. Be sure to tip him after with Venmo or a Cash App, it's well worth it.

Excellent Hike

Trent our guide was amazing, the host checked in on us before to understand our previous experience and establish the level for our hike, amazing !

Operator response

Woo! Thanks, William! So glad you got to experience Lake Tahoe hiking with Trent 🙌 Thanks for the shout outs to us as well, we like to plan the hike ahead of time to get the vibe and level just right — that’s our favorite move. Thanks again for the amazing review and for coming out with us. Can’t wait to get you back on the trails (or bikes, boards, snowshoes… whatever’s next)! - Tahoe Outdoor Adventures crew

They have hikes for everybody!!

They were very accommodating to our hiking abilities. We are not hikers but wanted to experience a hike in the beautiful area. We communicated our concerns either them to make sure this was the right activity for us. The last thing we wanted to do was to affect someone else’s hike based on our abilities. Well it turned out they were able to due a wonderful custom hike perfect for us. We were given a few options to choose what was right for us. Trent was our guide. He was knowledgeable, very interesting and great to hike with. They know special places. Would recommend to everyone. Thanks Trent!!

Operator response

Great Experience!

We had an amazing time! Some of us were afraid of heights, but Trent was so helpful and supportive all the way! He made sure we went at a safe pace and made the hike up seem so easy!! We went with our young adult kids and they want to do it again! Trent made it fun and provided so much interesting information all the way. The views he took us to were breathtaking! Ask for Trent!

Operator response

Next level, local vibes, WORTH IT! Don't skimp...you won't regret it!

This hike with Tahoe Outdoor Adventures was worth every penny-and then some! Our family with 2 teen aged boys (13,15 year olds) loved it.! Do yourself a favor and spend the little extra to do this trip! It was as described; unique and totally away from the tourist areas. Our fearless leader, Michelle took us on a private trip to an area that overlooked not just Lake Tahoe but several other high alpine lakes. Ask for her-she is a talented photographer, and cool person to hang out with. I can't recommend this experience enough- It's not too difficult, and it's perfect for the truly adventurous. We live in the Bay Area and compared to the budget hike we booked last year (a crowded stroll along Emerald Bay surrounded by sightseers), this was on another level. 10 out of 5 stars for this great local company! They also have other fun hikes that we cant wait to try next season.

Operator response

Thanks, Persephone! We enjoyed the experience as well and cant wait to see you again next year! -Tahoe Outdoor Adventures Staff

Birthday Lake Tahoe hike to Summit

Tahoe Outdoor Adventures and Jeff, Thank you for a wonderful experience. My wife and I enjoyed every minute of our 2 hour summit . We originally had planned a snow shoe hike but due to the lack of snow in the Tahoe area we chose a hike instead . Mitchell had communicated well with us and gave us an option to cancel but we choose to do a hike instead and take in the outdoors of Lake Tahoe. Jeff our tour guide was awesome. An experienced climber and hiker . He was constantly checking on us and took plenty of breaks and also took many pics and videos of us climbing up. We had so much knowledge of the area . I would definitely recommend this company and Jeff. Thank you guys for such an amazing time especially on my birthday. Paul Davila

Operator response

Hi Paul, Thank you for your wonderful review—it truly made our day! We're thrilled you and your wife enjoyed the 2-hour summit hike, especially on your birthday, and that switching plans due to low snow worked out so well. Jeff appreciates the shout-out for his expertise, care, and all those photos/videos. Mitchell was happy to help with clear communication too. We'd love to have you back for more Tahoe adventures anytime! Warm regards, The Tahoe Outdoor Adventures Team
