We originally booked to go on the 2 night Yosemite tour but unfortunately due to the fires we had to change our tour. I'd like to say that throughout this time there communication was pretty good with quick emailing and when we went down to the office Alexcus who helped us with our tour changes was very helpful. We decided to change our tour to the Muir wood tour which was nice with a prompt pick up and a nice tour guide Travis. Muir woods tour was good and it was nice just to get out of the city. It all went down hill when we took a stop to the Golden Gate Bridge where we were accidentally left behind as our tour guide failed to count who was back on the bus. This was made more stressful by the fact my belongings were left on the bus. Extranomical were very helpful though and arranged an uber to take us back to the hotel and arranged for my belongings to be dropped back. I would still recommend this company and hopefully I will be able to use them again to do there Yosemite tour in the future.

Exceptional tour. Our tour guide, Dan, did a phenomenal job. He was very knowledgable about San Francisco and it’s history and he pointed out places of interest. It was a great experience, and great value.
