Absolutely good choice Our guide Phil made me comfortable even though I am not good at English. And he tried to show us more and more

We enjoyed our day trip to Yosemite. Alberto (our guide) was very insightful and helpful. The places we visited were really interesting. The minor drawback was that we didn’t have the chance to see the waterfalls because they ran out of water during summer (so we must now come back again in spring 😃).

This was an amazing tour! Best Bay Area Tours managed to deliver a fun, activity packed (but not too packed) day at incredible Yosemite. Guests on the tour ranged from age 4 (ish) to seniors and everyone had a great time. Our guide Brian clearly loves his job (he worked at Yosemite a few years ago) and managed our tour from every angle. He made sure we arrived before the traffic jam at the entrance (due to the park's new reservation system) which meant we were able to avoid lines and crowds; took us to so many beautiful vantage points, gave us a brief history of the park and answered any and all questions--while making sure we had adequate rest/souvenir/food stops and free time to explore on our own. I was originally booked on an overnight Yosemite tour with another company that canceled with little notice (and they were rude about it to boot), but it turned out for the best since I'm certain Best Bay Area Tours provided a much better tour and showed me as many sights in the one day. I'm already trying to book another tour with them on my next trip to SF!
