Snowshoe Star Tours

Star gazers unite! Tahoe Adventure Company and Tony Berendsen present: Telescopic tours of the midnight sky! This fusion brings you the most exciting tour of the season. Depending on the season and weather, the tour will start with guided sunset kayaking, hiking, or snowshoeing followed by a brilliant tour of the midnight sky.

Our knowledgeable guides will teach you about the natural and human history of the area, while you watch the sun casts a purple alpenglow onto the Sierras. Depending on the season and weather, you can paddle through the crystal clear waters of Lake Tahoe, hike or snowshoe through Tahoe’s vibrant, yet peaceful forest. After our Sunset Tour, you will be guided to a viewing point, where Tony will open your mind to the fascinating world above. Hot drinks and snacks will be served as our Star Tour begins.
