We had such an amazing time on our tour of Yosemite!! Our guide Alberto was amazing and was so full of great information about the park and the drive through California. The park was beautiful and we had plenty of time to explore and hike to the giant sequoias. This was easily worth the price and something we will not forget for a long time! The drive was long but I am so glad we took a day to do this trip. Beautiful views with an excellent guide! Worth it!

An awesome day trip! Despite the smoke that we could smell coming from the wildfires south of where we were, we were still able to see the mountains especially later in the day. I wished the sky was clearer but no one can control Mother Nature. Alberto was our tour guide and he was excellent. He was very knowledgable, kind, and he kept our small group of 12 entertained in the minibus. Pickup from hotel was prompt 5:45am and the return was exactly when he said 8:30pm. Bottle water was available in the minibus and we had 2 break stops (roundtrip) on the way and back. During the stops we were able to buy food/drinks which we saved for a picnic in the park. Expectations by Alberto was shared in advance and he delivered. The mountains were grand and lovely but the sequoia trees were not as big as I thought they would be and the hike to see them was very strenuous. We definitely had a good work out at the end of the day. All in all, Alberto took good care of us and we enjoyed the day.
