What To Expect

Emerald Bay State Park

The Ultimate Half Day Tour departs at 7:00 am, and focuses on the best of Tahoe’s South and West Shore areas. Our journey begins at a beautiful secluded Tahoe beach, shadowed by spectacular Mt.Tallac. Across the river is an Eagle sanctuary, and you will be able to view and photograph different species of local birds, and possibly even a bear. As the mountains and lakes beckon, our adventures continues to back country lakes and spectacular waterfalls. Above the falls, another high country lake awaits our arrival. Climbing 2,000 feet above Tahoe to a high country ridgeline, gives you amazing views. Continuing to one of the most photographed locations in North America, Emerald Bay. Tahoe Photo Tours will take you to special locations to avoid the crowds.

Sugar Pine State Park

Sugar Pine Point State Park contains one of the finest remaining natural areas on Lake Tahoe. With nearly two miles of lake frontage, the park has dense forests of pine, fir, aspen and juniper. Constructed in 1903, the property is one of the finest examples of a by-gone era of summer retreats found along the shores of Lake Tahoe. With crystal clear waters and up to 24 inch pine cones this is a must see location.

Tom, our guide arrived right on time. I'm glad we got a guide because I would not have found the sights in my allotted time. The weather was perfect allowing us to get great shots of Lake Tahoe, waterfalls and mountains. Tom has a wealth of knowledge about the history of Lake Tahoe. Highly recommend Lake Tahoe Photographic Tours. Be sure to ask for Tom.

I had the pleasure of having Keith as my guide on the Lake Tahoe photography tour yesterday. He is so full of history and knowledge, and there was never a silent moment on the tour! I really enjoyed hearing his stories and gaining a better understanding of Lake Tahoe. Keith took me to many fantastic spots and I got some excellent pictures, even on my iPhone! The best surprise was receiving my pictures at the end of the day, they were truly breathtaking. I wouldn't hesitate to go on another tour with Keith or his crew, even though I have already done the tour once. I think the only downside to this tour was that we didn't run into any bears! Thank you Keith and Robin for your wonderful hospitality.

It was a last-minute decision to take the Half-day Tour, as I found myself in South Lake Tahoe with nothing planned on Labor Day. As it turned out, there was a cancellation, and I was treated to a solo tour, and much more than I expected. This is not some commercial tour with a canned speech and basic points of interest. Those points were briefly pointed out as we cruised by in Keith's brand-new luxury truck. We definitely were off the beaten path and on an adventure to capture the beauty of the area in photos. Keith was very friendly and had a lot of information to offer. It so happened we both used the same brand of camera, but his tips for composition, lighting, and exposure would translate to any brand of camera, even point & shoot. As promised, Keith took me to vistas and points of interest that are not on the tour maps. His knowledge of the area and its history were fascinating and informative. I learned quite a bit from Keith, and the experience rekindled my passion for photography. Since it was the two of us, Keith offered to extend the tour past lunch and even offered to meet later for sunset photographs. I never thought I would have had such a personal experience from a tour I found on a popular travel booking website. Tahoe Photographic Tours was an incredible experience and I highly recommend it to anyone with photography interest or if you just want to see the area from a local's point of view. But definitely bring a camera!
