Tahoe Sailing Charters

Went on a great cruise and for 2 hours enjoyed beautiful scenery from the deck of a gorgeous sailing yacht. Captain Tyler is very knowledgeable and great conversation. IF you are looking for a cruise to relax and enjoy, this is the one. THANKS Tyler!

Went with my wife and cousins. Totally had a blast! One of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Captain Tyler was a total pleasure and so was his deckhand/​first mate/​bartender Drew. Very professional and felt safe the entire time! Would recommend this to anybody with a pulse. Planning on going again when we come back!

This was a wonderful way to spend a Sat afternoon/​evening. Captain Tyler and first mate Drew were friendly and knowledgeable sailors. From the gorgeous views to yummy apps and delicious wine/​beer we couldn’t ask for more! The boat had about 25 – 30 folks onboard so there was plenty of room to find the perfect seat to enjoy the sail. I will be bringing family/​friends back this summer. Thank you!

Really enjoyed this cruise! Very professional and lots of fun! Would highly recommend.
Captain Tyler and his first mate were very personable and attentive to everything. Tyler’s sailing abilities are fantastic and he is a good tour guide, pointing out points of interest. What a great way to spend time on the water. We will be back!
Would make a great venue for a wedding party. Sailing is romantic and fun.

My boyfriend and I spent a beautiful evening on Lake Tahoe with Captain Mike, Captain Tyler and other guests. Both captains were very personable, knowledgeable and friendly sailors to set sail with on the lake. We enjoyed the selection of local wine and beers and had a nice snack during our sunset sail. This is a great adventure with a unique view of Lake Tahoe whether or not you are a sailor. Don’t miss this activity when you are visiting Lake Tahoe!

Whenever I get a chance to experience Lake Tahoe by boat, I’m thrilled. So when our friends were coming up to join us on the North Shore of the lake, we signed up for a 2 hour sunset sail on the «Tahoe Cruz», a 50 foot sailboat skippered by the capable, friendly and highly skilled Captain Tyler.
The trip was smooth and truly exciting, as we sailed along the west shore, reaching 9 knots in strong winds. The 20+ passengers were treated to all the beer, wine or soft drinks we wanted, and appetizer trays were very well stocked. This was a really top notch event, and we had lots of fun, enjoying conversations with fellow passengers and a great evening on one of the world’s most beautiful lakes. Make sure to take this sail — it’s absolutely great!

Captain Dan and Mack were awesome! The snacks were delicious, we never had an empty glass, great music, interesting conversation, and, of course, the view at sunset! We will definitely be booking with them again!

Love these guys! Wine in my hand as I took a seat on the bow! Delicious snacks, great company and a beautiful sunset. Couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend an evening than enjoying the deep, clean, blue gaze of Lake Tahoe! Ps wine and snacks are included!

This was such an amazing experience. From check-​in to departure the staff and crew were outgoing and friendly. The boat is a beautiful sailboat with plenty of room. Tyler, the captain and Mac the first mate made the trip memorable. Beer, wine and soft drinks were served. You could sit in front or back of the boat and Tyler let our kids take the wheel and drive. Mac came up front and offered to take pictures of our whole group. This was a wonderful way to experience the beauty of Lake Tahoe from the water.

Wow… What an AMAZING experience. This organization does an outstanding job of creating a wonderful experience sailing on the lake. The captains, Mike and Tyler, and the crew have years of expertise and strive to make all passengers feel at home so we can simply enjoy the ride. Also– Highly educated captains and crew. We loved our first excursion so much, when we returned to the marina, we immediately booked a second trip for the next day. The second trip was even better than the first, if such a thing is possible. This will make your summer Tahoe trip complete. Highly recommend.

WOW! Not only are you in the most gorgeous lake in the 50 states AND sailing on it, but the captain and the first mate know how to take care of their people! Glasses of wine stay full, tasty snacks throughout the sail, and absolutely wonderful conversation all evening long! Best decision I’ve made! Seriously, great for all ages, if you have to entertain your family, this is it! EVERYONE will thank you for it. Thanks captain Tyler and Tim for a relaxing yet invigorating evening!

Best sailing experience ever! The captain and crew were incredible and the drinks, snacks and view was just as good!

What a great afternoon on the lake! Tyler skippered and Tim took care of guests. It was a fun event on a lovely 50ft sailboat. i recommend it!

Had a great experience with Tahoe Sailing Charters! Capt. Tyler and his first mate Mac were both very personable and kind gentleman. I look forward to returning with more family and friends to enjoy the relaxing and beautiful cruise!

Captain Tyler and Captain Mike and interesting, invested and truly care about each passengers experience. Captain Jim has been removed as well as the rude office attendant. The Tahoe Cruz is sleek, smooth and really a sexy boat! Looking forward to our next trip to Tahoe, returning to the Tahoe Cruz and checking out they’re new power catamaran the Tahoe Dreamer!

I HIGHLY recommend this sailing adventure. I contacted Linda to book the sailing cruise and she was helpful, kind and informative. The King fire was burning and smoke was a potential problem on Lake Tahoe, so our go-​no-​go decision to sail was made, last minute. Linda worked with me and kept me informed the whole time before we sailed. It was so much fun and of course, beautiful on the lake. Luckily there was practically no smoke in the air. Captain Jim and his deck had Kyle were wonderful. We had great conversations, and best of all, with a little help from Captain Jim, I was allowed to take the helm of this beautiful boat. For me, an experience of a lifetime! Anyone thinking of taking a sailing cruise on Lake Tahoe, This is the one to take! I hope I’ll be back soon to sail again with these wonderful people.

Took the excursion on a whim… we ran late and made it just in time for the sail. No hassle at all. Totally relaxed and enjoyable sail on Lake Tahoe. Would HIGHLY recommend the adventure!

I was surprised for my birthday by my girlfriend and this was one of my presents. I loved the whole experience and would do another sail any day! Everything was top notch!

My brother-​in-​law got married in Tahoe in June and wanted the two immediate families to get to spend some quality time together before all the other relatives and friends came to town. To do this, we chartered a boat with Tahoe Sailing Charters and had the BEST TIME!!!
The staff was awesome, both on the phone as well as during our cruise –super nice people, very laid back, and very knowledgeable about the lake and Tahoe area which added some fun stories and trivia to our night. They gave each of us a chance to steer, which made for some great pictures and smiles all around.
Before we went, some of our group was worried about the amount of leaning sailboats do, but it really wasn’t an issue for anyone! It does lean a bit, but it only added to the authentic experience of being on a sailboat and was not extreme in the least. :]
Our 2 hour charter also included snacks (crackers and dips, meats, and pretzels), wine, and several kinds of beer for all 16 of us. Yum! :D
We got on the boat around 5:30pm and came in just as the sun set behind the mountains at 7:30pm, so you can imagine how insanely beautiful it was out on the water! There was plenty of space for all of us, and it was the most relaxed I have felt in a very long time!
If you have a large group, I would absolutely recommend chartering one of their evening cruises, but if you’re just a couple/​small group, based on our positive experience with the staff, I would imagine their regular evening cruises would be super enjoyable, too.

This past July, my wife and I had the pleasure of going a sunset cruise with Tahoe Sailing Charters. With just the wind to silently push us along, it was an amazing way to experience this beautiful lake.
I loved everything about the experience. The crew, the other passengers, the boost, the scenery, the food was decent, the view — Wow! Great romantic activity.
Until I learn to sail and can afford a large boat of my own, I’ll leave the sailing to Tahoe Sailing Charters. I look forward to our next cruise.
