Josh, our guide, was FANTASTIC! We ALL absolutely LOVED our hike. We also loved how much he genuinely loved Yosemite. There were 4 of us on our hike and he made sure he took care of each of our needs and concerns. He even made us coffee, camping style, and it was delicious!! We HIGHLY recommend this hike and our tour guide.

We did the mist trail which was stunning and very wet due to the unusually vibrant waterfalls this year. Our guide was Zim and she did a great job helping us avoid the rookie mistakes, navigating the climb which at times can be treacherous due to slippery rock and crowds. She also knew our pace and made sure we took time to enjoy particular views.
