Having read the reviews, we chose Best Bay Area Tours for this small group day visit to Yosemite - we were not disappointed . Our tour guide Brian was simply fantastic . Travel and pick up arrangements were informative and spot on . Although it was an early start 6:15, the approximate four hour journey to get to Yosemite passed in quickly . Brian broke up the journey with a couple of stops and kept us informed throughout . Having a guide who grew up in the area like Brian really made the whole trip informative and enjoyable . In a word Yosemite is stunning and anyone visiting the Bay Area really should make the trip . Numerous stopping off points and selected vistas ensured we got stunning photographs and video to remind us of this trip . I can not recommend Best Bay Area enough and real appreciation goes to Brian for overseeing it and for giving us memories that will last a lifetime . We could not pick even a minor fault in this full on day trip .
