The tour was the highlight of our trip to SF! Calder from Best Bay was an excellent guide who ensured that we were prepared for the day and kept us engaged with facts and trivia throughout the ride. The Yosemite park is a visit that cannot be expressed in words - the expanse and magnanimity of the rocky cliffs that engulf the valley make you experience the history of the glacial movements and transport you to a world away from your regular life. There was a lot of walking and a decent hike to see the sequoia trees, so we recommend good walking shoes, a refillable water bottle and a sun hat with sunscreen for people with skin prone to sunburn. The time spent in the Yosemite Valley towards the end of the tour was magical - exploring the trails and the Merced River beaches was so relaxing. We also spotted some climbers in action on El Capitan, which led to an incredible documentary we watched on our drive back to the city. The size of the van was also ideal, allowing for a more personalized trip experience and helping us make new friends as we clicked each other's pictures in front of the iconic views.
The driver was very fast. Food stops were disappointing. Lastly, we were not informed that the hike was going to be strenuous.
Very well organised tour. Good communication, knowledgeable driver guide and comfortable transport all enhanced the experience. We had perfect weather- 25C and sunny - no queues to enter the park and minimal traffic in the park. Although it is a long day, it didn’t feel it. Thoroughly recommend to anyone with a single day to spare in SF.
If you are thinking about booking a small group tour to Yosemite, do it—and make sure you get Sharon as your guide! The small group dynamic was perfect because it allowed us to move efficiently, get off the beaten path. Sharon was fantastic. Her passion for Yosemite’s history, geology, and wildlife was contagious, and she knew exactly how to pace the day so we saw the iconic sights without feeling rushed. She went above and beyond to make sure we all had an amazing time. 10/10 experience!
Great tour. It didn’t feel like it was too long to get there from SF. Sharon was a good guide
Bonus: great information about climbing. Very motivating trip, wonderful places, the weather was on our side. The organization was done right to the second, I felt like the guide and the team took care of us. The whole trip was very interesting and well organized.
If you're on the fence you should definitely book this tour! It is a long day but well worth it. The views at Yosemite are breathtaking. Victor was so funny and made the trip go by quickly. He even played a movie for us to help pass the time
We’re from Scotland so appreciate breathtaking views of the countryside, but Yosemite blew our minds. We’re on a US multi-city break and this is our best day so far, just amazing. We travelled as a family, with a 14 year old in company and there wasn’t a moment during this day trip we didn’t enjoy. Our guide, Kurt, was the most knowledgeable kind hearted soul, unbelievably attentive and really made our day quite something. We were lucky enough to see climbers on El Capitan AND a wild bear. The sequoia trees and forest hike was something else. 100% recommend this trip, the group was small and guide just magic.
The sites were beautiful and the guide was great. However, I think it should be noted that the only way to see the giant sequoias is to walk a mile down a fairly steep trail and then to turn around and hike back up it. You only have a short amount of time to do this and it is definitely physically challenging. This was the first sightseeing stop on the tour and wiped my family out for pretty much the rest of the tour. I don’t think the tour should be billed as a giant sequoias tour being a feature as it might not be feasible for many people to do this trek. Perhaps if this portion was allotted more time, it might not be as stressful, but we only had a few minutes to see, basically, two sequoias before heading back up the incline. Not worth it IMO. The rest of the sightseeing and picture stops were well planned and great. Just be aware about the sequoias portion. It was tough and rushed even for my teens.
We had a wonderful experience on this Yosemite and Giant Sequoias tour. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and it was a great way to visit Yosemite in one day from San Francisco. The giant sequoias were unforgettable, and we had enough time to enjoy the beautiful viewpoints and take photos. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and kept the trip well organized. The transportation was comfortable, and the entire day was smooth and enjoyable. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting San Francisco who wants to experience the beauty of Yosemite without the stress of driving.
