Pablo was our tour guide and did an excellent job. He picked us up from where we were staying and arrived on time. We visited Tuolumne Grove of Sequoias, Tunnel View, Bridaveil Falls, Swinging Bridge, Half Dome, Lower Yosemite Fall Trail, El Capitan, and Valley View. We had an excellent meal at the Ahwahnee Historic hotel and visited the Yosemite Village store for souvenirs. Pablo did a great job of explaining everything that we visited and details of what we were looking at. We would definitely recommend Pablo if you are looking for a comprehensive tour of Yosemite National Park.

Ask for Pablo
We booked this as the reviews for Pablo were very good. We got a different driver who didn’t seem very knowledgeable about Yosemite. Also the car for a party of 4 people was far too small for an 8 hour round trip drive to Yosemite from SF making the whole day rather unpleasant.

Exploring Yosemite peacefully
We did the day-trip to Yosemite, the guide Pablo made our trip even better, explaining curiosities and showing us magical spots, which we wouldn’t have seen if we had gone by ourselves. The trails are easy and wonderful surrounded with nature!

Breathtaking views without the stress!
Touring Yosemite National Park with Forest was an incredible experience! He was extremely knowledgeable and knew all the best spots to stop and avoid the crowds. Having a private tour allowed us to simply enjoy the ride and take in all the spectacular views! I cannot recommend this enough.

Yosemite with family
We had the best experience in Yosemite. It is a full-day tour but it is worth it 100%. Our guide Pablo was super attentive, took spectacular photos, and took us to the most beautiful places to see in this large park, super attentive with my whole family. He was definitely a great guide. Completely recommended.

Such an amazing, valuable experience!
We can't praise our guide Pablo enough. The private tour was SO worth it. First, we were picked up & dropped off at our hotel. Once there, we had no worries about parking as we were picked up & dropped off at each site. Pablo knew all the best vista spots and took amazing group photos to capture the incredible scenery and our wonderful day together. We were a family of 6 adults and we all agreed that the trip was so valuable--an experience of a lifetime. Pablo also arranged stops on the way there and back so we had plenty of food & drinks for the trip and gave us time for shopping at the visitor center. He had the logistics down and knew the most efficient routes to get everywhere, which gave us more time at the sites. If you are trying to work Yosemite into your trip, DO this tour!
