Are the Tahoe Cruises wheelchair accessible?
Tahoe Cruises has two boats that cruise the scenic lake year-round. The Safari Rose and the Spirit of Tahoe and based on the website, they are wheelchair accessible. Strollers are also allowed, but due to the steps, both wheelchairs and strollers must have the ability to be folded to bring on board the vessels.
