We were so fortunate to have had a guided Yosemite adventure with Bryant from Echo Adventure Cooperative. The entire experience from start to finish was exemplary. From safe and conscientious transportation, to warm conversation starters, to equipment provisions and a picnic lunch -the tour set a high bar. Our guide was warm and approachable, clearly passionate about the park and shared fantastic stories and wisdom that captured everyone’s attention. Our experience including many popular highlights from the park as well as more personalized spots and talking points. We recommend without reservation, and look forward to future opportunities to work with Echo Adventure Cooperative again.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Thanksgiving Tour with Matt - Hidden Gems & Personal Touch We had an outstanding private Thanksgiving tour of Yosemite with Matt, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. As a guide with a double major in history and sustainability, Matt's knowledge added incredible depth to every location we visited. Despite it being a busy Thanksgiving day, Matt expertly navigated us away from the crowds while still hitting all the highlights. Some standout moments included: - A peaceful visit to Merced Grove - A special viewpoint for Tunnel View away from the usual spots - Perfect positioning for El Capitan views - Fascinating insights into Native American cooking and culture What made the tour special was Matt's ability to connect with everyone in our family, including our teenagers. His engaging conversation style and vast knowledge kept everyone interested throughout the day. The practical aspects were also well-handled - the included lunch was excellent, and we appreciated the thoughtful touch of receiving reusable water bottles. Staying at Yosemite Basecamp made the tour logistics super convenient. If you're looking for a tour that combines crowd avoidance strategies, expert knowledge, and personal attention, I highly recommend booking with Matt. It's particularly perfect if you're traveling with teens or want a more intimate Yosemite experience.

Great day with a small group. The guide was experienced and knowledgeable. Several stops at the most iconic sights. Leisurely stroll around the valley. Would highly recommend this tour.
