Awesome Guide and Tour - The tour was very well planned. There were restroom stops after every hour and a half. The guide Glenda was very good. She was very very friendly. She had cold water, soft drinks, snacks and took care of all the people. Definitely ask for her if you plan to take this tour.

Good day in Yosemite - It was a long day, but a great day. Our tour guide was David and he was wonderful. Great stories, knowledgeable about the park and was kind enough to slow walk with me on the return hike from the sequoias.

Great overview of Yosemite National Park. - This was a great overview of Yosemite National Park. Our guide, Randall, gave great information about the Central Valley, small towns along the way, and then made sure we knew where to take the best pictures at every location in the park. His directions were clear and he problem-solved well. It was a long day, but a well-executed trip. The only change I would make is finding a better location to stop for dinner on the way home.

Excellent trip - Our guide David was excellent. Everything was on time and perfect. Would love to do with other family members. We booked from SJ, CA. Taken to Livermore on time. Bus from SF arrived on time and we met David. Breakfast, lunch and dinner stops places were not crowded. David was excellent, explained all very clearly. Took us near all important places in Yosemite.

Fun experience at Yosemite - Yosemete was very beautiful. The tour gives you some time to experience as much as possible but there’s so much to see here. It’s not enough to see it all in a day. I was also hoping to see more sequoias. The only thing I would improve is the transportation. For long distances, a coach bus with a bathroom would’ve been far more comfortable than the bus they provided. The ride was terribly bumpy in the back half of the bus. We could’ve also saved time by not having to stop as frequently for restroom breaks.

Don’t recommend - The sequoia hike was my favorite part of the trip,and the bus driver Gino was great, he was an excellent driver, However, this company desperately needs to update their buses! Our bus reminded me of a school bus, very bumpy ride! . I was at the last pick up, so had no choice but to sit in the very back on the bench seat. My seat had no air vent. (other seats had air). And I had severe motion sickness due to the winedy roads. If I were to do another bus tour in the future, I will make sure it is a newer coach bus. Overall would recommend you research other options.
