What You Will Do

Explore glacially-formed cliffs, wildflower-speckled meadows, and hike to the towering Sequoias in the heart of Yosemite’s dynamic wilderness. Immerse yourself in our day-long tour with our professional guides as they lead you through not only Yosemite Valley but also to see the ancient Giant Sequoias of Tuolumne Grove. You’ll capture the endless skylines, rock formations, and waterfalls as you enjoy an overview of how Yosemite Park’s unique landscape was formed, who came before, and how the park became the nation’s first ever protected national park. Next, strap up your hiking boots and embark on the 2.5 mile (4 km) round trip hike down to the Sequoia Grove which most day tour visitors do not get the chance to see. With 1.5 hours of free time in Yosemite Valley you’ll also get the chance to wander through the picturesque meadows, check out the Visitor’s Center or just find a serene overlook to sit and reflect.

Whirlwind Adventure with Room for More

Our tour guide was exceptionally nice, making the journey even more enjoyable. Pickup was a breeze at Union Square, with the car arriving promptly at 6:20, and we were on our way by 6:40.

The visit to the Giant Sequoias was well-timed, providing 1.5 hours to explore, which felt just right. However, upon reaching Yosemite Valley at 2 pm, the crowds were overwhelming, leaving us with a brief 1.5-hour window. It allowed a glimpse of the majestic waterfall, but more time would have been ideal.

A quick stop around El Capitan added a nice touch to the tour. While the day trip covers the essentials, a suggestion for future travelers would be to consider a 2-day trip for a more immersive Yosemite experience. Overall, a great way to capture the highlights in a day, but the beauty of Yosemite deserves a bit more time.

I had a wonderful time on this trip. The pickup from the Hilton Hotel was easy. The bus was very comfortable. The driver was fantastic because throughout the drive he provided historical information about various landmarks. The driver also did a great job on the tour of Yosemite. We pretty much saw 80% of the park in 1 day. Overall, it was a memorable trip.

Originally booked Yosemite and Giant Seq day trip. Unfortunately, it was cancelled a week before due to not enough bookings. We were switched to just the Yosemite tour. Honestly, it worked out because if not we wouldn’t have enjoyed Yosemite as much as we did. It gave us more time in the parks. The views at Yosemite made up for our bumpy hot ride to the park. I read reviews before booking so I knew there might be a chance the a/c, ride, might be a concern. The a/c kept being turned off. The weather was nice out but the inside of the bus especially the back gets HOT regardless. Someone forgot to put on deodorant that day and intoxicated the whole bus. Not a good mix when the a/c is off. Overall we got there and returned safely. I would’ve been a bit extra for a smooth ride.
