The best way to experience Lake Tahoe is from the water. A Lake Tahoe cruise is the perfect way to do this. Even if you are renting personal watercraft, power boats or yachts a Lake Tahoe cruise is a valuable addition to your holiday. There are many cruises on Lake Tahoe, but the paddle wheelers are the best.
There are two Lake Tahoe Paddle wheelers. The M.S. Dixie and the Tahoe Queen. The Tahoe Queen is my favorite. The Tahoe Queen is the only authentic paddle wheeler cruising South Lake Tahoe. This historic vessel is 144' long and 33' wide, with three decks. It is Coast Guard certified for up to 350 passengers. The boat is available year round for private charters, weddings and receptions.
Voted the best Tahoe boat cruise in South Lake Tahoe by readers of The Tahoe Tribune, the Tahoe Queen is the lake’s only authentic Mississippi paddle wheeler. This elegant Lake Tahoe icon recently underwent major renovations to reflect the allure and luster of the early 1900’s when there was truly no finer way to travel.
The Tahoe Queen offers Daytime Scenic Cruises that feature a tour through South Lake Tahoe history on the way to Emerald Bay. The Sierra Sunset Dinner Dance Cruise offers an unforgettable elegant evening cruise complete with famous Tahoe sunsets, breathtaking views, local cuisine and live music. All Tahoe Queen cruises depart from Ski Run Marina. Tahoe Queen Emerald Bay Sightseeing Cruise.
