Your photography tour begins with pickup in the South Lake Tahoe area by your knowledgeable guide, who provides an intimate experience that accommodates a variety of photo interests. This small-group tour by luxurious vehicle is limited to six people but often operates with even less participants, so you can count on personalized attention.
When booking, select from two options to suit your schedule and budget—the half-day Ultimate Scenic Tour, which features locations like iconic Emerald Bay and a beach with views of Mt Tallac, or the full-day Grand Tahoe Around the Lake Tour, which circles Lake Tahoe to provide as many photo ops as possible in one day.

Diana_C, Jun 2022
Our morning with Jim was lots of fun. He took the worry out of finding where we were going, where to park, and where to walk! He did all the thinking for us and we just carried our cameras and visited all our must-see places in South Lake Tahoe in one stress-free morning. Jim was helpful with my camera and settings, as well as giving cellphone photography tips. Jim is very friendly and knowledgeable about photography as well as the history of the area...the perfect leader for our tour.
