Private Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe Tour with Captain (2 hours)

Captain was very knowledgeable and kind. The boat was beautiful and it was such a a great experience on a vintage boat. It was special and sweet.

Beautifully restored 1958 boat. We loved our trip to Emerald Bay and we were able to get out and walk around the historic Vikingsholm. Thank you for a great experience.

If you want an authentic, relaxing and absolutely stellar experience on a GORGEOUS boat, choose Captain Ed. Ed knows the lake well and you’ll enjoy every minute as you ride around and dip your fingers into beautiful Lake Tahoe. Great boat for selfies too. We just loved our time with family and felt like a mini vaca. What a treat!

Alpenglow boat co was a great experience. Ed was very flexible and went above and beyond even though the weather did not corporate. I highly recommend this to anyone.

Beautiful, vintage boat and a personable captain made this a great way to explore Emerald Bay. Ed took great care of us and provided interesting information about the area and the bay. Would definitely recommend!

BOAT IS BEAUTIFUL - this is the private water activity everyone should opt for while here in Lake Tahoe. This pristine show boat really adds to the experience.

We had a great time with Captain Ed…. We met him at the Marina at 6 pm, he gave us a couple of choices in regards to the direction we wanted to head on our 2 hour tour…. We chose Emerald Bay!! Beautiful night on the water with great snow capped Mountain View’s…. Ed brought us back in the bay and gave us a 15 minute download on the history of the land, home and bay as we sipped on our champagne (it was out anniversary). I would recommend a private tour for the little bit of extra money. I was not interested in joining a herd of cattle on a large paddle boat…. The added class of an old century boat that is mint was awesome too…. One minor comment would be that the Hemi motor with the pipes in the old Century makes for a louder conversation as you must talk over the engine noise…. Still a 5 star for us…

Ed gave us an unforgettable experience. He is very knowledgeable of the lake and it’s surroundings. The boat itself is comfortable and intimate given it is a private tour. You can’t beat the views of emerald bay, especially when it is just your party as opposed to a large group of people you don’t know. Ed is also very accommodating when it comes to food, drinks, and music. I highly recommend booking with Alpenglow, I would not change a single thing about my experience.

This boat ride made our trip! Ed was so knowledgeable and friendly. We went with 2 friends and brought our 6 month old who LOVED the boat. Would recommend to anyone! Can’t wait to come back!

Awesome experience! We had Ed as our captain, he reached out via text right away to introduce himself and made it very easy to find him and the boat. The boat itself is absolutely beautiful, they keep it in pristine shape. And the lake... it's like a postcard come to life. Would give it 6 out of 5 stars if I could.
