It started on a low note when we were told to be ready @ 5:45 am and didn’t show until 6:10 am. Careless driver, passed car on curvy road out of Yosemite with approaching car, everyone in bus traumatized. He seemed to be in hurry everywhere we went. General driving was erratic, life of passengers threatened. Refund requested. Chauffeurs license should be reevaluated. Instead of being enjoyable this was a traumatic experience for all.

We expect this kind of review from one of the most unpleasant passengers we’ve had on our bus in a very long time. We will not respond to an exaggerated work of fiction.

What an amazing day. Our guide, Brian, is an expert in the park, it’s history and geology. Not only did we see some incredible views but learnt so much about Yosemite. The trek to see the giant sequoias was fun. Brian took us to several view points we wouldn’t have otherwise known to see dancing waterfalls and cooling streams. In addition we had 1hr 40mins free to explore and, at Brian’s suggestion, trekked to a nearby waterfall which you could go under. A big hit with the kids. Thank you Brian

We had a great day on our trip to Yosemite. We would highly recommend this trip. It’s a long day from San Fran but worth it. Our guide, Brian, was knowledgeable, nice & fun! He made sure that we saw all the sights & stayed on schedule. We would use them again.
