Our tour guide Joseph was excellent, giving us information on the places we drove through as well as Yosemite. Mai our driver was also good, stopping at several view points. The views were amazing and it was well worth the time spent travelling. We were picked up and dropped off at our expected times. Only disappointment was the limited amount of water flowing over the waterfalls due to visiting in October, I would recommend travelling in Spring. Didn't see any bears although they are in the area we visited. Wear walking shoes to take full advantage of the time there. The restaurant at Yosemite was cash less so make sure you take a credit card.

Yosemite was beautiful! Unbelievable beauty! The tour guide Alex was a good guide, was fun and informative. He took us to 2 different locations for photos, absolutely breathtaking. The only downside for this tour is that you only get 3 hours of exploration time for yourself, which may seem a lot but in reality is no where near enough given the size of the park. That’s not to say it’s the tour guides fault, the journey is roughly 4 hours. Overall a brilliant experience and would highly recommend

After we found out that you now need a permit to visit Yosemite Park with your own car, which is not that easy to get, we decided to do this guided tour from SF and have not regretted the decision. Even though the 8-hour round trip (each with a small break of 20-30 minutes) is exhausting, the journey is worth it. The park is stunning! There are several photo stops and you finally have between 3 and 4 hours to walk through the valley on your own, enough time for a lasting impression. Our guide Joseph entertained us very well on the trip with lots of information and anecdotes, while the driver Jack steered the large coach with toilet (!) briskly but very safely along the sometimes extremely curvy route. It was only annoying at the end of the tour that a small number of the guests were dropped off first across the city.
