Yosemite Valley Full Day Small Group Tour

Overview

Take a tour that lets you immerse yourself in the park. Our guides are master naturalists, botanists, geologists, historians, and - most importantly - relentlessly curious! This is not just a sightseeing tour, it's a day all about learning and connection.

Your day will include a drive through the valley, stopping along the way to take in views of the iconic rock formations, hear the calls of the wildlife, and see various points of interest. Over the course of your experience, you’ll spend some time walking in the fresh mountain air. Walks will be tailored to you and may include open views, flowing waterfalls, and walks underneath massive and beautiful trees. As you breathe in the deep air, your private guide will share fascinating information about the park’s flora, fauna, and history.

Groups are capped at 8 hikers. If we don't meet the minimum number of spots booked, registrants will be offered an option to make the tour private for an additional charge or cancel for a full refund.

What To Expect

Wawona

We'll make a stop to see the historic Wawona Hotel and talk about the area's historical and ecological importance.

Bridalveil Fall

Take a short walk to the base of the falls and get splashed by its mist!

Yosemite Valley

We’ll spend the day doing short walks along the valley floor to see the cliffs above. Many walks take us along the shores of the Merced River which goes from a raging flow in the spring to a trickle by late fall.

Mirror Lake/Meadow Trail

We’ll take a hike to the peaceful and serene lake for views of Half Dome and North Dome.

Pohono Trail

Tunnel view is one of the most popular views in the park (and possibly the world). We'll hike up the Pohono trail to escape the crowds and see the breathtaking view from our favorite spot. This part of the day will require some uphill hiking!

El Capitan

We’ll stop to take in views of the massive granite wall. We may spend some time watching climbers make their way up with our binoculars.

Max is an amazing person who brings so much passion to his work. Hiking with him was such a joy. My son and I developed such a respect for our planet by spending the day with Max. The trees, the flowers, the smells, the views, the water, the canyons, the meadows, the rocks …….. an appreciation for all these things and more. What an awesome day. Thank you.

We love Good Trip! They've been so helpful with us setting up our vacation and gave us two amazing days of tours in Yosemite. Our guide was a total pro and was able to answer all of our questions - even the silly ones. We did a day in the valley and then a day on some more "off the beaten path" trails in the high country. Both days were absolute 10/10 adventures. Thank you!
