If it's better to give than receive, you might as well enjoy that gift too. This holiday season, consider giving an experience you and your loved one can both appreciate!
In Reno Tahoe, you'll find experiences from outdoor activities, breweries, arts and culture, and more that will create memories to last a lifetime. Drop that wrapping paper and tape (you weren't going to wrap that present until Christmas Eve anyway), and experience something great in Reno Tahoe!

For the Patron of the Arts
You'll find an abundance of public art in the heart of downtown or MidTown, so grab lunch and a cup of coffee and take in the sights on a self-guided mural tour. While you're exploring, make sure to not miss J Resort's Reno Neon Line, the city's growing art district located on 4th Street. For the car and history buff, there's the National Automobile Museum, featuring several cars from Bill Harrah's famous collection and famous rides you might recognize from movies. The Nevada Museum of Art is another treasure that makes a perfect experiential gift for the art lover on your list. The museum is home to several permanent collections, as well as special exhibitions throughout the year.


For Your Drinking Buddy
So you've got a special someone always ready to help you find the perfect happy hour or share a flight at a brewery. Lucky for you both, Reno Tahoe is home to several breweries with unique offerings, from their selection of beer to their ambiance. If cocktails are more your speed, you can find anything from island-inspired rum drinks at Rum Sugar Lime to a moody ambiance at Death & Taxes, and anything in between. You might choose to grab a couple of gift cards or book a tour of local watering holes, sampling a few local favorites. Either way, we invite you to check out Reno and Lake Tahoe's bar scene.


For the Adventure Lover
There's nothing like an outdoor adventure surrounded by the blue waters and snow-capped mountains of Lake Tahoe. Get outside together and enjoy the adventures this region has to offer! Visit a Reno Tahoe ski resort for a day on the slopes. These world-class resorts offer lessons for beginners to some of the steepest, most advanced terrain on the West Coast. Give the gift of adventure and join Clearly Tahoe for a guided snowshoe tour or polar paddle. For some full-throttle fun, take an exhilarating ride to some of the best views of Lake Tahoe on a snowmobile! A number of snowmobiling tours will take you on the adventure of a lifetime up in the Sierra Nevada mountains.
Planning ahead for a summer trip? The Tahoe Via Ferrata experience is unmatched, offering 2-hour and 4-hour tours that offer stunning views of the Sierra. More great ways to get a bird's-eye view of the destination are a parasailing tour or a hot air balloon ride over Lake Tahoe. If sticking closer to the ground sounds better, Flume Trail Bikes offers rentals and shuttles so you can experience one of the most scenic mountain bike trails in the country.


For Your Competitive Friend
A little friendly competition never hurt anybody. Give your friend a reason to turn up their competitive edge and you can bet they'll have a good time! Channel your inner Paul Bunyan at Reno Axe, located downtown. Place some friendly wagers and see who is better at wielding an axe. For an out-of-this-world good time, check out the virtual reality experiences at Max Action Arena, inside Grand Sierra Resort, where you can battle zombies and explore alien worlds. Get your heart pounding in a race to the top of the climbing walls in Basecamp Climbing Gym inside Whitney Peak Hotel. And it's never too soon to dream of summer! Get tickets to a baseball game so you can kick back and watch a game at the Greater Nevada Field cheering on the Reno Aces!
