We really enjoyed our Yosemite Winter Tour on December 26, 2017. We saw all the main sites, especially Half Dome! Our only concern was that when we departed the park, our driver (Constantine) was perhaps "chasing the daylight" and drove fa..r too fast and also passed other drivers on that very steep, windy road. We were terrified. We have been on many tours all over the world and this was our 1st tour where the guide was BOTH guide and driver.... might you consider having the tour with 2 employees? As well, we were ready at 5:50am for a 6:10am pick-up - we were waiting in the lobby. Constantine did not come in to get us, instead he was waiting on the street across from our hotel... finally at 6:20am we went looking for him and then saw him across the street. When we tried to explain that we were actually early and waiting for him in the lobby, he snapped back at us that he doesn't chase down guests in their hotels. Having 2 employees would alleviate this problem. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our tour - many thanks!!! Chris Castellarin Elissa KinarRead full review
I had a wonderful and positive experience at Yosemite with Denise as our tour guide. She did a great job explaining the history of not only Yosemite itself but San Fran and the Bay Area. I was very appreciative of the fact that she wanted u..s to get the most out of this experience even though the weather did not permit us to see the magnificent sequoias. You could also tell how much she enjoys and loves what she does and she wants everyone to feel right at home just as she does. So thank you Denise!Read full review
Very service minded and knowlegeble guide! Increadably professional. The office personel were also just great and responsible! So satisfied with the service!!
It was an excellent tour. Only unfortunate that we were unable to get onto the other route or see the Sequoia Trees. Denise was phenomenal. Knew her stuff and made a long day very enjoyable.
We really enjoyed the tour thanks to our guide Jake on 28 of January. He maintained energy level through the tour and also have been great in time management to ensure everyone is on time and rest of the people do not have to wait for just.. one person who is late. He shared number of stories about the park and the city in an interactive and engaging manner. However it would be great if seats on the bus were more comfortable considering that journey is so longRead full review
Thoroughly professional, fun and spectacular! Yosemite was stunning and well worth the trip, even if you only get just enough time to look around. Our guide was Denise, you are so lucky if you get her. She is so good at her job- passionate,.. knowledgable, caring and safety conscious. I learned SO much and had the best time. She really brought the whole group together, and made sure we all had a good time. She also took the best photos of us. Thanks so much!Read full review
Denise was a great tour guide - very knowledable and pleasant. Only suggestions would be to include more native Indian history and cultural stories and to find a better place to stop for return meal.
