Excellent trip! Very easy to get around from hotel to yosemite and back. Extranomical bus was easy to identify. Both drivers were extremely informative. They deserve bonuses, making multiple stops for us to get food and see additional sights. Special mention to Rob on the way back, very informative, down to earth, personal. Would gladly have him as a tour guide any day. He knows all the good food places and recommended them to us for the rest of our trip.

terriblest company!!! ruined my trip i booked 2 days trip yosemite park and sequoia, so this sucks company did only one day and back in San francisco when i texted company about that i want 2 days trip and it’s complicated serpentine road. I booked the tour solely for the sequoia but they just ruined the tour with their disorganization the road is hard to go only one day on which they offered to return half of the tour I understand they are scammers you pay and expect a full tour and they did one day and return 50% with a favor but I don't need a refund, I need a sequoia tour

We, of course, are sorry to know that you were disappointed with our service. I'll explain what you already know from our conversation: you booked and paid for a one day tour on Viator but believed you had booked a 2-day tour. When we spoke you refused to pay the difference to our agent. As an act of good faith we refunded 50% of your cost for the 1-day tour. We thought that to be a generous solution, but apparently you do not agree. We also direct you to our tour description which clearly states that we do not do the Sequoia hike in icy, unsafe conditions which was the case on your tour day. We are still open to hearing from you; please call our guest services team at (415) 357-0700 and ask for a manager.
