"high point of our trip"

I expected this to be a very good event, but it became a high point of our trip. Not to take away from the beautiful beaches or the great sights but this cruise had everything. Lots of people but all moved on board quickly. We sat with a group of 4 and had great conversations. The food was very good, the wine inexpensive and the servers very attentive. The sights were spectacular and it was all rounded out with a dance band in a large lounge playing popular music.

Tip: Don't be disappointed. To be sure you get on board buy your tickets in advance from vacations made easy.

This turned out to be a great place for a family dinner, cruising and dancing given our concerns about covid-19. We had our own separate table with a special meal for our granddaughter, lovely views from the uncrowded top deck of emerald bay with commentary and managed to work off a few calories dancing (6 ft apart) to a super band-duo. The ms dixie staff all wore masks (as did we when near other guests) and special precautions were taken to increase hygiene. A truly lovely evening that let us escape to a fairy-tale era!

The dinner cruise was better than we had expected. The food was fantastic, and the view was awesome.

Tip: Request the 2nd dinner shift if you can. That way you can enjoy the beauty of the lake while it's still light (and warmer), then enjoy a fabulous dinner after the sun sets.

Took the daytime trip, i was a little disappointed as i thought we would see the whole lake. The boat basically goes to emerald bay and back across the lake (who know it would take 2 hours just to go over and back). The narration was good although sometimes hard to hear.

Tip: Book early for a dinner cruise as they were all booked a week prior to my trip.

The food and service were fine, and the band was very good, but we couldn't see the sunset because it was hidden by the mountains surrounding us. It was enjoyable overall.

"The cruise was amazing!"

The cruise was amazing! The food was to die for (the salmon). The whole experience was even better than anticipated. Superb service thoughout dinner and after dinner the music was great - So much fun! We had read there would be a swing band playing but were pleasantly surprised by the vaiety of music the band played (from pop to country). So much fun! I would definitely go on the cruise again and hope to in the near future. Such a great experience! Thank you!

"The view was amazing."

The view was amazing. However, overly priced for the am cruise for two children. You could not hear the speakers very well because so many on there were drinking heavily.

Tip: I heard the evening cruise was better but it was just too expensive for kids. This is more for adults.

The food was ok, the chicken entree needed more flavor it was not what i expected. The music was great and the crew and service was very good. We had a great time!

The two hour excursion was just right for us. I was entertaining out of town guests and this was a highlight. You receive some of the lakes history and current facts over the loud speaker. It wasn't to much and just enough to add to the little cruise. I think it should be renamed tahoe queen ii as a replacement for the boat that burned down in 2016.

"Lovely trip on m."

Lovely trip on m. S. Dixie ii for a beautiful sunny afternoon cruise on emerald bay. For the most part the music and the tour information was easy to hear! I believe the company would do well to make an up-to-date video of the treasures beneath lake tahoe as their video is 20 years old and of marginal quality. (although good for the time)

Tip: Take the evening cruise that includes a meal for what sounds like a good value since local food prices are high.

We were not pleased with the $10 parking fee on top of the cruise cost. I also that if you are calling it a lunch cruise that the lunch isn't included. All in all, the cruise was a good day and we appreciate the music and being able to hear the narrative. What was disturbing to me was the cost of the photos. $45!!!!! That's just outrageous. I'm a photographer and i know those don't cost that much. Then, it was $35 for one. We loved our photo and $25 would have been a sale. Instead, you made $0.00.

We enjoyed our tour overall, which lasted approx 3 hours. The food was decent for the amount of people served...And all at the same time. We felt the cruise ship could have been a bit more well maintained, especially the restrooms which were pretty grungy. I wanted to leave 3 1/2 stars, but it wouldn't allow that. Good overall, not great.

This would be 5 stars but our server completley ignored our table! She never once took our drink order and we had to chase down a server from a different section to help us. All the while she made repeat trips and kept checking on the family next to us, but she literally never acknowledged us?! I was absolutely shocked and offended and it ruined our dining experience. Everything and everyone else was amazing.

The cruise was very enjoyable as was the band entertainment. Disappointed in the dinner however. My wife's chicken dinner was barely edible, burned with very little meat on the bones, mashed potatoes were good, broccoli spears not edible, hard and chewy. My steak very well done, i ordered medium well, not even close, couldn't even cut the steak. Same brocolli problem, potatoes decent. Dessert was reasonable. Cruise price would have been reasonable had the food been much better prepared. Randy jones 95.3 krty san jose's hot country 9a-2p mid-day personality

Took my mom and two brothers on the lunchtime sightseeing cruise. Lake tahoe is beautiful, of course, and there was a lot of information about the lake. We didn't have the lunch, so i can't comment on that. One note - be sure to bring sunscreen! We forgot, and although it wasn't too bad, we all got a little burnt.

The views are gorgeous on this sightseeing tour, and the boat is really cool, but it was so over-crowded. Everyone was packed in like sardines. We really enjoyed being on the water. We stood near the bar on the upper deck, and i had my two 90 year old parents with me. People did not even move to give him a seat. When we went to get off of the boat, we had to go down several flights of stairs, and because it was so crowded, people were pushing us all over trying to exit the boat from all decks in the same spot. The female bartender on the top deck was quite snarky, and it was duly noted by others around us.

"The trip was great!"

The trip was great! Emerald bay was beautiful! It was hard to find parking (we almost missed the trip) it was hard to find seating as well. Seemed very over booked. The food for purchase (lunch, dinner is included, lunch is not) was good. Service was great! I think overall it was a little over priced. $70 per person. It was a great experience.

Tip: Reserved parking for dixie passengers? Enough seating to accommodate?

The ms dixie sunset cruise was a perfect way to celebrate our anniversary!!! We were shuttled from our hotel, the staff was super friendly. My husband and i chose steak with veggies and the loaded au gratin potatoes. Man, those were yummy!!! And don't forget the cheesecake!!! The views were spectacular! After dinner we enjoyed the live band upstairs, they had the dance floor packed the entire time! We were alittle nervous when we heard how many people the dixie holds, we had been on a small yacht before with only about 40 people. So 3-5 hundred people sounded crazy. To be honest, it didn't feel overly crowded at all! If i hadn't read that the boat holds that many, i never would of known! It was fabulous!

This cruise was wonderful. The day and weather could not be more beautiful. We took 15 people as part of our wedding party and would highly recommend it for such occasions, or to add to a special family trip. The scenery is uncompromised and the staff and tour information was top-notch all the way.

Tip: Always keep in mind that this is a very popular activity and arriving early to board is recommended for deck seating.

The cruise was absolutely stunning. The boarding process was easy and fun. Being greeted with champagne was a nice start. The dinner is probably the only reason for a less than 5 star rating. I ordered the steak that was listed as a ribeye. In my opinion and some others that shared my table felt that it was more like a sirloin, thin and a little dry which was really disappointing. The chicken, which my boyfriend ordered was okay. However, we both agreed that we wish we would have tried the salmon because of the quality of the other choices. The sides were great as well as the other courses. As for the cruise itself, we loved it. It was absolutely stunning with plenty of time to enjoy the sites. Overall the experience was enjoyable.

"It was a lovely evening."

It was a lovely evening. Everything went well for our group. The air-conditioning was out in the dining area...This did have some impact. I wish aramark would ask for a review of the zephyr lodge room accommodations. What a nightmare...Incredibly expense and they were not prepared for guests. No hot water my entire two day stay, locked out of the lodge...Staff goes home and they provided no information of such or how to access your room during these hours. Two fold-out beds with no linen and not made for my guests staying in that area. Carpet was filthy. Large jetted tub was old and the jets looked as though they harbored scum from previous guests. But, we had no hot water so we could not even shower !!! They need to be ready to rock and roll if you are charging 320.00 per night for a room. Tahoe is always beautiful, thankfully.

Half an hour after we left shore the boat turned around, no information whatsoever. Finally one passenger said we’re turning around coz someone needed medical help. It’s an unfortunate event for this person but i expected the crew/staff could have let everyone know what’s going on. It was a boring cruise but the food was great. I’d say skip it if you have better options.

Tip: Narration probably will help. There was one at the vikings castle but that was it. The bus driver who picked us up from hotel did a good job of giving some history btw.

Although no lake/ weather warning, waves and wind were strong while the temperature frapidly dropped while waiting to board. Many people boarding were dressed in spring clothes and evening dress-wear. We had to wait on the dock without protection up to 30 minutes before being allowed to board. Some protection or better boarding procedures need to be implemented. Service was good, the scenery beautiful, the food average.

We went on the dixie ii dinner cruise for our anniversary. I wasn't expecting the dinner to be very good, since they were feeding over 150 at once but to my surprise the food was wonderful. My husband ordered the steak and gave me a bite, it was tender and flavorful. The sides were good as well. I order the chicken and it was tasty and juicy. After dinner we roamed the other two decks. There was a live bad playing oldies and some country, we really enjoyed them. There was plenty of chairs for people to relax in. The only problem was in september on the lake at night it gets quite chilly. We took jackets and were glad we did, we only wish the deck chairs weren't so cold. We would go back again for sure.
