This tour was a great way to see as much of Yosemite as possible in one day- a stop at the panoramic viewpoint, three full hours in the valley to explore, and even stopping to spot climbers on el capitan on the way out. Robert, our guide, loves what he does and went the extra mile for us- even stopping on our way back to the city for a spectacular view of San Francisco from across the bay. Would definitely recommend going during the week if possible as you can steer clear of the crowds.
It was a great day. Yosemite is beautiful and the weather could not have been better. The day went smoothly enough. I was back to my hotel by 9:05 pm. I would prefer it if the hike had been guided. Our guide, who I don't think ever told me her name, was professional and did everything she was supposed to. I would not say she went above or beyond, but she did what was expected. I would travel with her again.
Great day out. Coach comfortable and driver safe, as quiet a windy and dangerous road. Sam our driver and guide was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. A long day but so worth it. Yosemite was breathtaking. Only one suggestion, maybe shorter stop on way back to pick up drinks etc rather than full meal break.
