Full-day Yosemite tour from San Francisco with an English driver-guide, big photo stops, and about 3 hours to explore Yosemite Valley.

“The tour itself was fine, however the tour guide drove like a MANIAC. He was speeding up the mountains, taking sharp turns, passing cars on the highway nearly hitting cars, and almost hit a biker driving downtown. There is NO reason to put us and an entire bus of people in a compromising and unsafe position driving like that up a mountain.”

“The day trip to Yosemite was wonderful but the cost of the trip is a lot of money for what it is, but I understand that is mainly down to petrol costs. We arrived back to San Francisco later than anticipated as the driver decided he wanted to stop off for dinner at his friends restaurant which meant we all had to dine there and get back a hour later to San Fran”

“We had Denise from Extranomical Tours for the first half of our tour to Yosemite Valley and Brian from Best Bay Area Tours for the second half of our tour back. Denise's a great storyteller - she gave a lot of information on the places and their history along the way - and she was really witty. She was also very clear with communication like how much time we had at each place and when the next toilet stop would be . Brian provided more experiences, like setting up telescopes to let us view the climbers on El Capitan, and guiding us on short hikes. Both had very different styles…”

Private small-group Yosemite day from San Jose with expert guide, bottled water, and scenic stops to Half Dome, El Capitan, Tunnel View.

“The trip itself was ok, but, I think the amount of driving from San Jose to Yosemite is a lot for a 1 day trip. The driver brought a baby. A 1-2 year old girl. She sat in a car seat for 3.5h & 3.5h back & had to get out at all the stops. The driver did have food & a water bottle for her. I don't think she was old enough to be potty trained. She was good but also at times seemed miserable. I know child care is expensive but i don't think this is ok for your customers or for the baby. The driver talked a…”

2-day Yosemite tour from San Francisco with a guide: Valley highlights, Giant Sequoias hike, Curry Village tent cabins, biodiesel coach.

“Molt bona excursió de dos dies a Yosemite. L’organització genial i el guia, en Jordan, un 10/10! Si vols veure els highlights del parc en dos dies és un viatge perfecte. Si t’agrada molt fer hiking igual se’t queda curt perquè el primer dia és una caminata curta per les sequoies i veure miradors. El segon dia és lliure i pots fer excursions molt maques. L’estància a Curry village també molt bé.”
