This is a must-do tour! We had an amazing day. Brian, our guide, was wonderful from the moment he picked us up at our hotel early in the morning until he dropped us off in the evening. The sights at Yosemite are awe-inspiring. Brian was so helpful showing us the park and where to get the best pictures. I look forward to going back. I highly recommend this tour to anyone heading to Yosemite.

This was our first trip to Yosemite. It was a full-on day with an early start but was worth every penny. The views were absolutely stunning, helped no end by the weather. Our guide Albert (Best Bay Tours), provided us with lots of information that we wouldn't have known if we had made the journey ourselves. We were stunned to see climbers going up El Capitan and even "camping" on the rock overnight!!! We would thoroughly recommend this trip and using Best Bay Tours for it (booked through Viator). We are not hikers so the one day trip was more than enough for us.

This has to be the best way to see Yosemite while on holiday in San Francisco! Steven, our guide, was wonderful, and informative. The grandeur of the park can NOT be overstated! Can’t wait to come back and spend more time exploring the Park as a whole. 10/10!
