Yosemite was absolutely beautiful and we are glad we went to see it. We knew the journey was long (approx 4 hrs each way). However, the bus was full so we had to sit in the back row which was extremely bumpy and uncomfortable. The back row window seats have the wheel arches coming up into the floor, you therefore have to sit with your knees up. Also the left hand side seats in the back row have less legroom than all the other seats. 4 hour journey each way! Joe the tour guide/driver was knowledgeable if a bit eccentric. His driving was at times a bit scary and his music very loud, especially on the way home when most people were trying to sleep. I would recommend a trip to Yosemite but maybe on a more comfortable bigger vehicle.

Yosemite Park was one of the most beautiful places I have been and the tour guide was great. This tour is more for groups (couples, families or friends) but can be done solo

Great way to see Yosemite in one day! Phil our guide was very knowledgeable and was a great driver ☺️. He also had amazing themed playlists to enhance the trip to Yosemite (example: songs with “gold” in them while driving through where the gold rush was). Seeing the Sequoias was really nice and the whole time in the park seeing El Cap, half dome, and the waterfalls was amazing. We got a lot of free time in the park to explore. It was a beautiful day to remember. Thanks so much for the great experience!!
