San Francisco to Yosemite

Yosemite National Park - Embark on a journey with breathtaking views of San Francisco’s iconic landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman’s Wharf, Alcatraz, and the city skyline as you cross the Bay Bridge.

At Yosemite, enjoy a meal among ancient Giant Sequoias, which can reach heights of 300 feet and are over a thousand years old. Then, ascend to Tunnel View for awe-inspiring vistas of Yosemite Valley, featuring El Capitan, Half Dome, and Bridalveil Falls.
