My husband and I had a great 1/2 day hiking experience with the lovely Ashley who was charming, fun and knowledgeable. Ashley also gave us lots of great tips for the rest of our stay in Yosemite. Would highly recommend!

Would recommend YExplore Yosemite to everyone. Did Mount Hoffman hike with Trevor - best hike made better by a brilliant guide! Trevor made it really fun and was very fit but managed the pace for our level. He was really knowledgeable and arranged the accent and decent for the best experience. We will specially request Trevor if we are ever back again! (Thanks Shoey!) Also a big thank you to Catherine who arranged everything and got the hike all organised with only 24hrs notice-much appreciated.

I booked especially because of the private guided tour that mentioned being personalized to what we want. The staff is really really sweet and wonderful to work with. However, we didn't get the 'Personalized" part applied to our tour. They offered two tours and were a little unclear what we were exactly doing. So we went along with the 10 mile 7 hour tour they suggested. Our main objective was to see as many parts of yosemite as we could in one day. 2.5 miles into our hike, we were spending 7 hrs to just hike around the half doom. 7 hours of looking at half doom. we realized that after this venture we would be too tired to do any additional sightseeing. So at 3 miles we requested that we turn around and use our time and energy to see other sights. Our guide was great about it and took us to a few other additional sights and it all worked out but because we stepped up and spoke up mid-tour. Again, the staff is wonderful but maybe they should improve how to "customize" their tours.
