We enjoyed listening to the historic facts. The driving instructions were crear, but the map was hard to follow.

Obviously well researched and prepared! This is part of a series and definitely worth the purchase. The different locations were beautiful and memorable and I will absolutely do this loop again!

After taking the first tour in the series from South Shore to Tahoe City we decided to take the next leg as well. It was well worth it. Although we've traveled the road from Tahoe City to Incline Village many times we discovered several new places that we never new existed. We never would have even known about the Summertide House or the beautiful Stateline Fire Lookout Trail and the incredible views offered over Crystal Bay from the top. The stories interspersed throughout the drive were fascinating. Well thought out tour, worth the price, especially when you add in the free hiking maps included.
