Yosemite and Giant Sequoias Day Tour

Overview

Explore glacially-formed cliffs, wildflower-speckled meadows, and hike to the towering Sequoias in the heart of Yosemite’s dynamic wilderness.

Immerse yourself in our day-long tour with our professional guides as they lead you through not only Yosemite Valley but also to see the ancient Giant Sequoias of Tuolumne Grove. You’ll capture the endless skylines, rock formations, and waterfalls as you enjoy an overview of how Yosemite Park’s unique landscape was formed, who came before, and how the park became the nation’s first ever protected national park. Next, strap up your hiking boots and embark on the 2.5 mile (4 km) round trip hike down to the Sequoia Grove which most day tour visitors do not get the chance to see.

With 1.5 hours of free time in Yosemite Valley you’ll also get the chance to wander through the picturesque meadows, check out the Visitor’s Center or just find a serene overlook to sit and reflect.

The opportunity to see so many of the attractions in Yosemite. All of the people in the tour group were very nice and our guide, Jeremy, was great. He was very knowledgeable and fun.

Yosemite was one such place I always wanted to go and I am glad I had booked Incredible Adventures for it. I had booked it last minute, probably just 6 hours before the trip starts. The customer care team was prompt enough to schedule my pick up point accordingly and answer questions. I was greeted by Lisa on my pickup point on the scheduled time. She had so much energy and created a positive vibe all around. This was a small group which was even better to get to know other tourists. Although Lisa was driving she made sure to update us every time we came across something great and made sure the trip was so much fun, she was even kind enough to take pictures of all us too. The guide had also gave us perfect instructions on what to see in Yosemite and made sure to stop every time someone needed food or had an emergency. With prompt service at an affordable price along with an amazing guide makes Incredible Adventures the best tour guides.

In winter, the redwoods are not approached (after booking and payment, the info comes). Valley erinnert etwas an CenterParcs. Can be seen, but it is not a must.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We try to make it clear before booking that the Sequoia trees are sometimes in accessible during the winter months due to varying driving conditions. We apologize for any confusion this caused and will try to make this more obvious in the future. We would love to welcome you back in the future in warmer months to experience the beauty of the Sequoia trees.
