An excellent day out. A fascinating and scenic trip around Yosemite valley. The tour guide Phil was welcoming, well organised and provided lots of very interesting information about the park and also about San Francisco. He really knew every detail required in order to help us get the most out of our trip.

This was truly the best tour I have ever been on! Brian, our tour guide, was wonderful - high energy, knowledgeable, and made the trip so relaxing and fun. Yosemite is a big place, so it was wonderful having a tour guide take us to all the "must see" spots without the stress of trying to figure it out ourselves. As other reviews mention, it is a long day, but you will see so much and it is well worth it! You can sleep on the bus ride if you need to ;) We even had a tv screen on the bus which Brian used to show us pictures of the park and what to expect; then he put on a rock climbing documentary to really set the stage! On the way home, we watched a movie and just enjoyed the scenic drive as the sun set over the mountains. Sign up for this trip - you won't regret it!

Phil our guide was fantastic. Amazing stops for photos. Some free time to enjoy lunch and great recommendation to buy on the way so you didn’t waste any time in Yosemite doing this. Enough time at the Tollume Grove to hike down and see the redwoods.
