scannell2212-Chicago
Sep 2012
My mom, sister, brother and myself looked on trip advisor and decided that we would check out this tour. We were hesitant initially because of the price, but after reading reviews; we decided to check it out anyways! It was just the 4 of us in a nice SUV with our tour guide, Robin. Robin is a "HOOT!" She is very funny, blunt, informative, intelligent and did I mention hilarious?? She talked to us the whole time about historic events that had happened in Lake Tahoe, it wasn't boring like a any old tour guide, she was totally real with us; it was like she was just our friend. In fact, half way through the day, she started calling us by shortened names like "Ty" instead of Tyler. We were all very comfortable. As far as what we saw; serene beauty! We went to places that gave us great aerial views of mountains and the lake. We also saw some awesome waterfalls, and my mom took one for the team when she slipped and landed right in the water.... We went to an old vintage church that's still used and just really enjoyed our day! We had our own cameras, and Robin also took pics. She gave us tips on where to shoot pics from as well. She took many pictures of us as a group, because I'm usually the annoying girl who asks strangers to take groups pics... and then get angry when they do a crappy job. It was nice to have a competent photographer right on hand! After the tour, we got a CD with all of the pictures and the rights to them! It was a great experience and I'd love to go back in the fall and spring and do the tour again! It was fantastic and I miss Robin....
