I can not express how eternally grateful I am to Phil and his company for this AMAZING experience. My husband and I traveled to Yosemite National Park last week with Phil as our guide. WHAT AN ADVENTURE. The entire 4 hour trip from San Francisco to Yosemite was planned with precision, informational and every detail was thought of from the stops, to the music, to the tour. We were blown away by all of the information that Phil had about each area we traveled through and by his hospitable spirit (being from the South, this means a lot so far away from home). The day in the park was beautiful beyond works or expression. The photos do the real life experience no justice. If you are on the fence, go ahead and book and book with Best Bay Area Tours. You will not regret it and want to return with more people that you love. We can't wait to return next fall with our family. Thanks Phil!

Steven was one of the best tour guides I’ve ever met. From the get go, he was warm and friendly and made everyone feel at ease. He gave us interesting facts when relevant, but didn’t bombard us with information. He had cold water available for everyone, and gave us great recommendations on food, attractions and photo spots. The park itself was stunning. Though it was an early start and a long day, it was completely worth it. An unforgettable tour that will no doubt be a highlight of our trip to the US!
