Take a day trip from San Francisco to Yosemite National Park, described as the crown jewel of the country's many splendid national parks. You will be guided on a coach tour to highlights such as Bridalveil Falls, Tunnel View, El Capitan, and Yosemite Falls, with a stop for a 1-mile (1.6-km) walk into a grove of giant sequoias*.

Our vans only take 15 passengers, so we are able to stop at more places with less time for loading and unloading of passengers.

Absolutely brilliant day excursion- it’s a long day but totally worth it. The views on the drive are part of the experience. Kurt was a fantastic guide - funny, knowledgeable and thoughtful. Highly recommend it!

Steven was a great guide with good knowledge and humour, and great at checking in. We got taken to all the best spots with plenty of time to explore. Would highly recommend this tour and guide. There is a screen with some documentaries between stops so the front seats weren't the best for viewing.
