Full description

Experience both the Yosemite Valley and the Giant Sequoia Walk on this day tour. See why artists and poets have been inspired for generations by the breathtaking sceneries at the national park. Since 1890, the beautiful Yosemite National Park has been the jewel of America's National Parks, possessing some of the best-known landmarks in the world, such as the tallest waterfall in North America, Yosemite Falls. Have 5 hours to explore the stunning national park, and take in the majestic natural wonders, accompanied by a complimentary audio-guided tour. See the spectacular Half Dome and El Capitan, two of the most frequently climbed cliffs in the world. It is also home to several groves of stunning Giant Sequoia trees, the largest trees on earth. The Giant Sequoia Walk is along 1 mile (1.5 km) of paved trail with a 400 ft (120 m) incline, snow depth permitting. Marvel at these giant trees — the largest in the world. In winter, when conditions on the Tuolumne Sequoias Grove trail are snow-covered or unsafe, we substitute this experience with other attractions.

On a group tour, view stunning panoramas, go on walks, and even hike a little, before returning to San Francisco. Or if you prefer, upgrade to a private tour for your group only.

I’d like to thank and commend our guide and driver to Yosemite, Brad. Not only was he a safe and conscientious driver, but an extraordinary guide to the history and geology of Yosemite! His enthusiasm and vast knowledge of California and its premier national park were captivating! I only wish I had taken notes to recall all the interesting stories and information he so generously shared with us. Brad is of high caliber and I hope to have the luck if being under his guidance on a future tour with your company. Well done! Lillian

Andy was absolutely fantastic.. he is a really smart and a qualified guide.. thoroughly enjoyed his commentary on different things happened throughout the history related to SF and also to Yosemite. A bit hectic schedule but he gives you different options during the trip.. watch out for that! Prob will spend more time in Yosemite next time!

So much fun! I’ve been dying to see Yosemite for years. I am a flight attendant and had a long layover in San Jose. I ubered 30min to the 7-eleven pickup area. The tour was great! Loved my guide. I had 2 hours to explore and hike the lower area of the Yosemite falls. And we had an hour and a half to go look at the giant sequoias. That walk was about 2.5 miles, going uphill back. It was tough but the trees were beautiful! (It’s optional whether you wanna walk the trails or not there).. the stops for food on the way there and back we’re great too!! Highly recommend this tour! :)
