Awesome day trip from San Francisco. The drive is long but worth it. Sit back, relax, and let someone do all the planning for you. Phil was a great guide. You could tell he has a passion for the park. We went to all the great spots and had plenty of time for pictures and to take in the views. Would absolutely recommend!

What a tour! Yosemite is beautiful beyond words and did not disappoint. Though a (long) day trip, I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who's short on time in San Francisco, and having lived in SF for six years myself, part of enjoying the bay is exploring the amazing and scenic backdrops just hours away. On top of the serene and surreal magnitude of Yosemite, our tour guide and driver, Phil, was probably the best guide I've had on my worldwide adventures. He really goes the extra mile to ensure you see the most you can during your time there, even bringing his own binoculars & telescope so we could see climbers free climbing. The small group tour, multiple outside stops, and Phil's attention to disinfecting surfaces inside the vehicle, made this a great & safe covid excursion.
