Reno–Tahoe International Airport to Sierra-at-Tahoe

South Tahoe Airporter and reserved mountain ride

Approximate journey: 3 hr 30 min–5 hr

South Tahoe Airporter serves selected South Shore hotel and transit stops from RNO. Reserve the airport ticket, then arrange a separate paid ride to Sierra’s main plaza. Sierra confirms it does not operate a visitor shuttle from downtown South Lake Tahoe. Do not confuse an employee bus with a public connection; the booked airport hotel stop is not the ski base. Confirm the operating date, ski-bag capacity, separate ticket conditions and the final return departure. Long waits and overnight stops are additional to the estimated connection range.

1. Start at Reno–Tahoe International Airport and confirm the correct departure point for the first leg.
2. Follow the planned connections: South Tahoe Airporter booked South Shore stop → Reserved vehicle to Sierra.
3. The example map ends at Sierra-at-Tahoe main plaza. Match the vehicle or final bus stop to your actual accommodation, lesson and rental collection; another base or town address may need an extra local ride.

Good to know: Reserve each required vehicle; check pickup points, service dates, ski luggage and the last return.

Private transfer
