Whether it’s breezy, busy or simply a little too boozy, your only job is to kick back and enjoy it. We took the 5 hour tour to Thunderbird and it was awesome. Our Captain was so good with my kids and gave an interesting tour.
I recommend bringing a jacket (even if the forecast calls for sun) and a good camera and wearing comfortable walking shoes. Scott to give you a greater appreciation for what you will see and a strong context of what you will learn while you’re on the boat ride and taking the Thunderbird tour. Tahoe Cruises’ Safari Rose has been around for a while, and for good reason with fun new ways to see the lake on their elegant 80-foot yacht.
