  • Best trip ever in US

    John who was our hiking guide was friendly and was really good with 6 yr old kid as well too. He explained very detailed on what things are and also where the beautiful shots can be taken from. He also knew when and where to take a bit of rest at each point since hiking with a little one can be quite difficult. But he understood exactly where and when. Only thing I was disappointed was that after so many shots with cameras, I realized that no Camera could take it as we saw the surroundings no matter how good it was. I would say this was one of the best trip ever. Thanks again John!

  • Great for the whole family

    Our tour guide Emily was prompt and easy to find at the agreed upon meeting place. She was extremely accommodating to all of our needs and was able to customize the hike for each of us. My father is elderly and she was kind enough to bring walking sticks, which were a great help to him. And while we took a rest after the first portion of the hike, she continued on with my teenage nephew. He got to see a bear! It was the absolute highlight of his trip! Great views with a short hike. Terrific.

  • Truly a hike to remember

    John was a great guide and great company. He pointed out all the landmarks to us as well as the local fauna and wildlife. We were in awe of the view and landscape. John was also a fantastic photographer, got us some superb family shots. He made it a really special and memorable experience for us. Thank you John we had a very special day.

    David‘s knowledge of the topography, trees, birds, animals and local history and climbing, was just what we hoped to learn about on our visit to Yosemite. His enthusiasm and care for the wilderness was evident. He accommodated two adolescents well. All round just great.
