5.00Booking and instructions were very easy and we did not require any pre tour communication. The guide was at the meeting place on-time. Our guide (Kara) was very friendly, informative and flexible on the liking and tour to suit our groups ability and requests. I feel we got the most out of a 1 day tour of Yosemite. The hike up to and above the falls from Curry village was well worth the climb. The whole day was amazing and they certainly live up to their name of Lasting Adventures 👍 Highly recommended. We would certainly use Lasting Adventures again 👍
