Fantastic experience! One of the most impressive parks I have seen in my life! Our driver Phil was very knowledgeable and humourous! We had a fantastic time and learnt a lot! He made sure we not only did all the scheduled stops but also some additional for pictures! Great trip, I would highly recommend this experience!

Choose this small group trip if you really want to enjoy Yosemite to the fullest!!! Don’t go with a large tourist bus to Yosemite because you will be able to see only a few views from the main stops and listen to an audio guide. This small group trip was the most amazing experience I’ve had in a while: - timely pick up and drop off right at the hotel, no need to wait for others to be picked up for a long time - very nice mini-van with good speakers and AC - Phill is the most passionate and enthusiastic guide on the entire west coast. Great jokes, timely commentary, great music, clear instructions and timing, taking best shots for everyone in the group - great advice for lunch time, - so much effort into making this experience unique with watching the rock climbers through telescope and binoculars - watching a movie about the history of rock climbing and sharing very interesting information about the history of the park and the valley This trip has exceeded any of my expectations by far and I’m happy I’ve chosen this trip. As Phill said you will forget the 4h drive each way, but you will always remember the time spent in the valley. Will 100% recommend to all of my friends visiting SF
