Hues of goldenrod, amber, scarlet, ginger… that’s what we have to look forward to once we get into the fall season. All over the Northern California landscape the shrubbery, trees, and leaves will be changing from verdant green to a color explosion. And while hiking is a popular way to enjoy this special annual time, you might consider embarking upon this stunning fall foliage boat ride.

Tahoe Cruises is a family-owned cruise company that has been offering spectacular voyages along Lake Tahoe since 1979.

The staff and crew here take great pride in showcasing beautiful Lake Tahoe, known by some as “the jewel of the Sierra Nevadas.” So a stunning fall foliage boat ride is definitely in order!

As the seasons begin to change, so does the foliage all around the lake.

Vibrant hues pop out all over the landscape.

Keep an eye out because sometimes fall and winter can appear at the same time!

If you think the day cruises are spectacular, wait until sunset!

Because fall foliage peaks at different times each year, if that’s what you really want to experience it’s advisable that you call Tahoe Cruises to get a “color update.”
