Fantastic tour of the area with conversations I will never forget. - Our time with Gabe in Yosemite was more than a tour—it was an adventure shared with a friend who knows every nook and cranny of this remarkable park and El Capitan. If you’re looking for an authentic, personalized experience that is light hearted and at times comical, I wholeheartedly recommend Gabe and his budding tour company. Thank you, Gabe, for creating memories that will last a lifetime!
