What To Expect

Yosemite Valley

We’ll spend the day doing short walks along the valley floor to see the cliffs above. Many walks take us along the shores of the Merced River which goes from a raging flow in the spring to a trickle by late fall.

Yosemite Falls

We may hike partly up or to the top of Yosemite Falls - one of the tallest in the world!

El Capitan

We’ll stop to take in views of the massive granite wall. We may spend some time watching climbers make their way up with our binoculars.

Bridalveil Fall

Take a short walk to the base of the falls and get splashed by its mist!

Mirror Lake/Meadow Trail

We’ll take a hike to the peaceful and serene lake for views of Half Dome and North Dome.

Mist Trail

Depending on conditions, we may take the Mist Trail to Vernal Falls - get ready for a steep uphill climb and lots of waterfall spray. The views at the top make all the steps worth it!

Our full day trip in Yosemite was amazing! The views were breathtaking! Our tour guide, Maddie, did a fabulous job showing us all of the major landmarks that we wanted to see and she had great recommendations for our party of 5. She was impressively knowledgeable of the area and was so sweet and accommodating to our 3 daughters. We also enjoyed a delicious picnic lunch in the valley. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting the area!

The whole day tour of Yosemite was fabulous due to our fantastic guide Hannah ! Her enthusiasm, knowledge, experience and ability to explain interesting facts simply inspired us throughout the day. The memories of the sequoia trees, Yosemite valley, waterfalls and the mountain face’s surrounding the valley will be memories we take with us forever! A million thanks Hannah for making our day so special! Graham and Hilary
