About this tour

By the end, Al Tahoe won't just be a place you passed through — it'll be one you know the story of.

Start with your choice of specialty coffee or tea before setting out with your local chef-guide. Enjoy a progression of brunch favorites and local specialties at each restaurant as your chef-guide goes beyond the plate, sharing the history of the dish, the ingredients that make it distinctive, and the story of how it came to be.

Step into Tahoe’s Gold Rush history at the site of Lake Tahoe’s first lakeside hotel, once a stop for gold seekers traveling toward the Comstock mines. Discover the stories and history of this historic neighborhood, shaped by early settlers, travelers, and Tahoe pioneers.

You’ll also hear about a local bombing incident involving some of the most complex explosive devices ever encountered by the FBI—a surprising chapter of Tahoe history.

Finish at a lakeside restaurant overlooking the lake with your choice of dessert, prosecco, or non-alcoholic wine.
