Brian, our driver picked us up early for what was going to be a long day driving to Yosemite, travelling round to the good photo points and then travelling back. He was very good at keeping us entertained on the way there and we watched some climbing videos of El Capitan and the history of climbing in the area. Our first stop was at a car park and he pointed us over to a bridge and there was Half Dome in front of us and also reflecting in the water with blue skies overhead. It was awesome and each stop after was just as amazing. It was a long day but we stopped to see the sequioas and then headed back. Would definitely recommend this trip and this company and definitely Brian Wunderlich as your guide. Many Thanks for a brilliant day.

Would we do this again? Absolutely! We loved every minute of it (even the journey to and from the park). Phil was excellent throughout - incredibly knowledgable, with a contagious passion for Yosemite. The tour was true to the itinerary and we were lucky enough to enjoy opportunities for additional stops as the park was very quiet. If you are wondering if it's worth the drive from San Fran, the answer is yes - it's a long day but the combination of Phil's thoughtfully considered soundtrack, local knowledge and even a Yosemite-themed movie on the way home (onboard the bus) made the time outside Yosemite itself fly by. Well worth the money and the highlight of our time in San Francisco!
