Take a day trip from San Francisco to Yosemite National Park, described as the crown jewel of the country's many splendid national parks. You will be guided on a coach tour to highlights such as Bridalveil Falls, Tunnel View, El Capitan, and Yosemite Falls, with a stop for a 1-mile (1.6-km) walk into a grove of giant sequoias*.

Our vans only take 15 passengers, so we are able to stop at more places with less time for loading and unloading of passengers.

*weather permitting, and the hike is not recommended for people with health issues

Brian was a terrific guide. We weren’t able to see the sequoias, but he was thoughtful about stopping for food, bathrooms, and the best photo stops. The day is long, but well worth the views. The waterfalls were particularly spectacular!
Great Experience! Yosemite is absolutely beautiful

Viktor was a great guide. The weather was pretty much rainy all day and snow in the higher elevations so be prepared for anything. Viktor made us laugh and was very informative of the history of Yosemite. That makes such a difference when you have an awesome guide who knows all about where you are touring. Be prepared it is a very very long day but worth it. Thanks Viktor you were the best. We will always remember you. Thanks Lori, Mark and Brody (Michiganders)

The schedule for the day was incredibly thoughtful. Trevor couldn’t have been more professional and friendly. The documentary’s screened while driving, Trevor’s tremendous knowledge on all things Yosemite, the never failing courteous attitude all added up to a great day. Yosemite itself lived up to expectations. The photo stops were great, we captured some awesome pics. Can’t recommend Trevor enough. Thanks for a wonderful experience
Best Tour Ever!

Amazing tour. Our guide Trevor was great, full of facts, very friendly and accommodating to the group. It is a long day but getting to see the sights is a must and the free at lunch to wonder was also a nice touch! Highly recommend.
