  Just amazing! If like me you don’t have a lot of days, this one day trip is perfect to get an overview of the park and to fall in love with it!

• Overall a great trip

  Overall this was an excellent trip and our guide Debi was fantastic. Love visiting Yosemite, it is very much worth the trip. Reason for 4 stars was when we arrived at post street to meet the tour operator, the office was closed, as in the address has been vacated. This caused panic, upset and arguments within our group as we'd arrived at the requested time at one of the two pick up locations listed on the booking. We didnt know whether to get a taxi to the other location, if we did would the coach still be there?! Not a great start. A company rep showed up at 6.45am (we were told to arrive at 6.20am) much to our relief. I would suggest making it clear on booking that post street is still a pick up location even though the office is closed.

• Consider another tour or staying overnight.

  Park 5 out of 5 Tour 2.5 out of 5 Our tour driver did not greet us or let us know his name upon arrival. The 'luxury' bus was actually a converted 4WD, with no windows for fresh air, & a broken AC that just made noise & did not move any around air. Many of us complained about the heat as a 90F/27 degree day. In which the driver let us know at the end of the day they were waiting for a part for 'weeks'. When I re-read the reviews many had complained about this previously. Tour started 6.40am, first stop at a grocery store 2 hours later for a 20 min toilet break & to grab enough food for break fast & lunch for the day & same again at 5.30pm for dinner to eat on the bus. The driver wanted us to be punctual (fair as a long day) although at every stop made us feel like children if we were 1 minute late (checking watch, making rude comments, calling us to the bus before the time given. Enjoyed the park, although unaware of the being 15 hours instead of 12 hours. For how long the journey is & and price, a working A/C should be the bare minimum. Driver asked for $20 gratuity 2.5 hours before the trip had ended, I tipped not because of a good service, but because of the long tour that was provided.

  

• Great tour guide/driver but shame on Gray line for running buses with no aircon in California!

  Booked for the Tuesday but got cancelled so had to choose Monday instead. The tour was operated by GrayLine who also cancelled and rescheduled our other trip this week. The tour guide Jerry was great & Yosemite was AMAZING but there was no aircon on the bus. California is really hot!! It was upper 90’s today and we were packed on a sweat box for 5 hours straight driving back from Yosemite. It was hellish and everyone onboard was miserable and complaining. Poor Jerry got hardly any tips because he bore the brunt of everyone’s frustrations but the fault lies with Gray Line cutting corners and packing us on to a bus too small to be comfortable for that long a trip with no air con. That bus shouldn’t have gone out. Absolutely ruined the experience for everyone on the tour.

• A decent way to see Yosemite if you have no transportation while in San Francisco .

  Was told we would have 3 hours in Yosemite Valley and only had 2 1/2 hours , also said we would have a 10 minute stop at the Ansel Adams gallery when leaving the park . Driver said he had no idea where it was . A bit disappointed.

  Andy was very very nicee!!! The best tour guid I have ever had. He was very attentive and made sure we were doing well. He told us a lot and explained everything. He even always took photos of us, which was great. Unfortunately, it was very hot on the bus because the air conditioning didn’t work, but that wasn’t his fault. Andy was simply the best! He even bought us ice cream because it was so hot.

• Great time at Yosemite National Park

  Wonderful place! Waterfalls!! Huge! And you can walk up pretty close to it There are caves! And did you know if your there you can use their swimming pool. Bus picks you up and takes you to other stops in the park. Be sure to get there schedule

  The bus drive is a longer duration than actual time spent in the park. Itinerary scheduled “stops” were basically a drive by. Our bus had multiple issues; first a “mechanical issue” when entering the park causing a delay. The second was a flat tire which the driver was ill prepared for; it took over two hours to obtain a “rescue bus”. We didn't arrive back to start area until of 4 hours late! Be prepared for bus driver that talks non stop, some information regarding the National Park and other just babbling on. I would recommend an alternative tour for the Sequoias and Nation Park

• Great 1-day tour Yosemite

  Our tour guide Don was very knowledgeable and gave lots of information. He gave us time to stretch out. The only thing i can complain was on our way back the door of the bus was acting up not latching fully so it was kinda loud and was worried that the door fly away.
