Plan Your Perfect Lake Adventure
The Safari Rose offers an elegant setting for up to 68 guests, accompanied by a professional crew of 3–4. While she can host a full capacity event, many groups prefer a smaller gathering—around 35 guests in the cooler months—to ensure everyone can relax comfortably inside.
Originally crafted in 1959 by the 3M Company, the Safari Rose was built with rich mahogany and teak, showcasing timeless craftsmanship. Awarded “Yacht of the Year” in her debut, this world-traveled vessel now graces the emerald waters of Lake Tahoe, offering your guests an unforgettable backdrop of beauty and history.

Testimonials
The Lake Tahoe cruise was one of the highlights of the trip. The boat was clean, comfortable, and offered stunning views of Lake Tahoe from the water.
The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making the experience feel welcoming and relaxed.
One of the biggest highlights of our trip! The staff on the boat were so nice, helpful, and interactive. Made the experience above and beyond. We couldn’t be more happy with how it went!
I did the cruise today under clear blue skies and glorious sunshine. The crew is great, the commentary is informative and the food and drink is outstanding. I was struck by the sheer beauty and serenity-it was even better than I’d hoped for. I came all the way from Australia to tick this off the bucket list and the staff at Tahoe Cruises was great on email and phone with the planning and on the day itself.
Thank you Tahoe Cruises for a magnificent day on Lake Tahoe.
The folks running the Safari Rose were very friendly, the boat was great, snacks and booze good. Highly recommend this tour. We did the sunset Cruise….perfect!
