This was one of the best tours my husband and I have taken. Brian with Best Bay Tours did an amazing job. We learned so much about Yosemite National Park from this tour. A lot was packed in the 1 day tour but Brian made sure we were comfortable and sent over and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful tour of Yosemite National Park.

Phil was an outstanding tour guide and was happy to answer any questions we had about the city. He called the day before to confirm pick up time as well as location. The tour itself was fantastic. It is a very long day but it is worth it. Be sure to pack for warm and cool weather as it is usually a lot warmer there than San Francisco. April/May is the best time to see the waterfalls and there were a lot of them. He showed us a lot of cool “bonus” stops and had really good recommendations. If you’re looking to see Yosemite definitely do this tour you won’t regret it!!

The small group Yosemite and Giant Sequioas Day Trip was the highlight of my time in San Francisco. Our tour guide, Brian, was so knowledgeable about Yosemite and brought us to all of the best spots! This was the perfect way for me to experience Yosemite as a solo traveler staying in the city, as safety was my number one priority. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience Yosemite in a day.
