Beat the crowds with early park entry and experience more of Yosemite in less time. This year-round tour from San Francisco covers the park’s top highlights—from towering granite cliffs to roaring waterfalls and peaceful sequoia groves.

This tour includes free offline audio guides in multiple languages so you can explore with context — even without cell service.

Wear rubber sole shoes with traction, to be safe walking on trails. Warm comfortable socks. Layers of clothes because weather and bus air conditioner can be cold in front of bus.

We were staying at fisherman’s wharf so the journey to Yosemite was a long way. We got the coach at 05:20 and didn’t get back until 21:30. However all that time travelling, we only spent 3 hours in total in Yosemite. The driver, rob, was really good though Only scored 3 stars as it was too much time on the coach

Glenda, our tour guide, was a good driver, a great guide with a lot of information and stories. She was also very attune with passenger needs. We appreciated that in the back of the bus! Bus was full but comfortable. The park was just fabulous. Very crowded on a Saturday, still wonderful. Our meal stops were very suitable and close by. All in all: A+. We would never have gotten to do all this on our own with renting car, driving, organizing, etc. The tour was just right for us. Thank you.
