This tour was amazing for families! Our tour guide Steven Schwenka was amazing! We have two young girls and he was so caring and helpful. His play list for the trip was great and he was informative with his knowledge of the area and tips and tricks for getting around San Francisco. He was respectful and on time, it felt like a friend was driving me around for the day. We stopped at the best photo spots and seeing snow! Tips: in December bring an extra pair of socks as it is chilly. If you have small kids bring a change on clothes in case. If you get motion sickness at all, take some travel medication with you as my poor little girl was sick on the way from winding roads. She said in the end the views were well worth it.

Absolutely perfect! Our guide (Steven) was super helpful the whole way through and made the trip incredibly enjoyable. He had a thorough knowledge of the area and could answer any question any of us threw at him. He cracked frequent jokes and kept us entertained the entire trip. Was very patient and helpful with my mom and me, which was much appreciated. Highly recommend it; Steven made Yosemite the highlight of our entire trip in SF.

This trip from start to finish was fantastic. It began with great communication from Brian our tour guide on pick up time ect. We were a little sad that because of the weather we wouldn’t be able to se the Sequoias but Brian made the day incredible regardless taking us to all the best spots in Yosemite. Highly recommend! Loved every minute of this tour and am so thankful we were able to visit this magical place 😊.
