Take in the stunning state parks of Emerald Bay, Eagle Lake, D.L. Bliss and Sugar Pine, scattered along Lake Tahoe’s West shore, on a driving tour. View the crystal-clear waters from roadside overlooks and hear stories about this spectacular alpine lake as we cruise from the Golden Nugget Lake Tahoe Hotel and Casino at Stateline, Nevada to Tahoe City. This driving tour is one of three that takes you entirely around Lake Tahoe. On this tour we’ll explore the early community of Al Tahoe, the Tallac Historic Site, and view three early Tahoe summer homes. Our tour continues with optional hikes to Vikingsholm at Emerald Bay, Eagle Falls, and Eagle Rock. Enjoy the picturesque splendor of Lake Tahoe and its surrounding snow capped mountains as you drive, along the way hearing stories about: • Some of Tahoe’s colorful characters • Early Native American history in the Tahoe Basin • Lake Tahoe’s early history • The trees of Tahoe’s pine forest • Historic homes dating back to the late 1800s and early 1900s • The history of gaming in Lake Tahoe This driving tour can be completed in about two hours without any stops. On the other hand, this is your adventure. You may stop where you want, when you want, and for as long as you want. It’s up to you! Along the way, you’ll have the option of visiting a number of state parks. Parking fees are not included in the price of this tour.
