The best experience of our trip. I have 2 adventurous teenage boys this experience was amazing. Our guide Alex was fantastic, so knowledgeable, helpful and fun. We hiked Upper Yosemite Falls and Alex made the trip outstanding! The owner, John was so flexible and great with us as our plans changed. I am such a fan of this company! If you are interested in hiking In Yosemite, use YExplore Yosemite Adventures. I highly recommend it!! My boys are planning their next adventure with this company. Thank you John and Alex for a memorable trip! See you guys next time.

David‘s knowledge of the topography, trees, birds, animals and local history and climbing, was just what we hoped to learn about on our visit to Yosemite. His enthusiasm and care for the wilderness was evident. He accommodated two adolescents well. All round just great.
