Response from Host , Aug 2022
The cancellation policy and all finances in regards to tickets purchased through Viator / Trip advisor are a discretion of the business mentioned and Discover Lake Tahoe Tours has control of issuing refunds or granting cancellations. It is unfortunate that we'd received a bad rating for the tour that you weren't able to attend.
Sorry for the inconvenience. Please contact Viator / Trip Advisor in this regard.
thank you
Frustrating experience

Operator canceled tour less than 24 hrs. Before the tour was to take place. Wasted my time and money, flight/hotel for this excursion.
Response from Host , Jul 2022
We understand the frustration and were very regretful and apologetic to cancel this tour in such a short notice. Our driver/guide came down with Covid the day before. We used to have back up staff but the pandemic forced them to move elsewhere. We're in the process of training drivers / guides to step in next time.

It was certainly a long day but we'll worth it. We had a small group of 11 people and it was perfect. Snowshoe John was professional and extremely knowledgeable with the entire park and it's hidden gems. We would highly recommend this trip.
John was so flexible with both photo stops as well as restroom stops. He provided a light breakfast and thoughtful lunch. All in all he was a pleasure.
You will love this tour.
We loved the trip and are glad we did it.

Best tour ever

Our tour guide was ‘the best’. Number one he was a safe driver. Number two he was so interesting and knowledgeable. Periodically he would play informative tapes on Yosemite park that were very interesting. Number three he kept the tour on schedule. Number four he personally prepared a lunch for us, all healthy food and all delicious. You could tell he was into cooking. Number five he was very kind and made sure everyone was comfortable. Number six he went way and above on what he had to do. Also someone had left a wine glass on the bus from a previous tour and he was making a special trip to Harvey’s to return to owner and that woukd have been a huge hassle with the traffic and parking. I can’t really say enough good things about the tour or guide. His ski name was snow something!!!!!! Terrible I didn’t catch it the entire day; was too busy taking every second in!!
Awesome!

Excellent Day Trip to Yosemite Park

Snowshoe John was an excellent guide on this trip. He is very experienced and friendly answering countless questions from his personal experience. He made me feel very comfortable then entire trip. I would take another trip with him as a guide without question. It was a great experience made only better by him. I also enjoyed the lunch we had in the park. It was refreshing to have real hand-prepared food on the trip and not just cold sandwiches. It was unfortunate that smoke from the Dixie fire affected some of our views, but we were lucky and still had so many great and memorable views and experiences that it barely diminished the experience. I hope these tours continue as what they offer is extremely valuable. We even saw videos along the trip that helped show us more about what to expect as well as interesting history related to our trip.
A perfect day in Yosemite

Best Day Ever!

What a fantastic day we had with Snowshoe John on 6-24-21. Our group of 6 was picked up at 5:30 in Tahoe and the drive to Yosemite went so fast bc John gave us so much information on the drive. He was an encyclopedia on this area. We made a breakfast/coffee stop and John provided us with a light buffet. Then, on to Yosemite where we made frequent stops with restrooms and time to walk around and take photos. The scenery was incredible and John constantly fed us information. We had a delicious picnic lunch in a gorgeous spot with picnic tables. We had about an hour to wander and eat. Then we headed down to Yosemite Valley where we saw all the big attractions and they were amazing. We loved it all. It was HOT down in the valley but when we headed back up the clouds filled in and cooled us down quickly. A few more stops and explorations and we headed back to Lake Tahoe. We stopped at the same place where we had breakfast. They have lots of souvenirs and excellent food and almost everyone ordered some dinner. It was a great break. Got back to Tahoe about 8:00 exhausted but so very happy! It was worth every penny and I recommend this to everyone. Snowshoe John was so great, he made the tour extra special.
Best day ever!

My tour guide gentleman is very kind. He took us to many spectacular views at Yosemite and gave a lot of information about the places. I am glad to book this tour with this experienced man with 22 years in this job. He offered us light breakfast and lunch too. We thank him for this wonderful trip.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
