  • Will my kids (or partner) get restless on this tour?
    No! We have found 3 hours to be the perfect length of time for a tour like this. It will be fun, interactive, and won't drag on and make your children (or partner) grow restless.
  • A lot of Yosemite tours feel crowded - is this any different?
    Yes! Our tours are capped at 8 people, so you can forget about being stuck at the back of a 20 person line, or crowded onto a bus. Our small group sizes means a personal experience for you and your family.
  • I've had bad tour guides before - how can I trust the quality of your team?
    Great care and thought is put into designing this tour, and hiring only the most passionate and engaging guides, but if for any reason you feel like this tour did not live up to your expectations let us know and we will issue a full refund.
  • If the weather is poor will we still be able to see and enjoy everything?
    Yes! Some of the best experiences in Yosemite can be had on dark and rainy days. Throw on a rain jacket and join us for a unique view of the park most will miss out on! The only weather event we cancel for is lightning.
  • Can I book a private tour?
    Yes! Give us a call at (+1) 949-975-9349 to book your private tour.
  • How crowded does it get in Yosemite?
    Yosemite experiences the most visitors during summer, particularly in June, July, and August. To avoid crowds, visit in the shoulder seasons: late spring (April-May) or fall (September-October). Mid-week visits and early mornings are less crowded as well. If you are visiting in summer you might also consider visiting the less crowded areas of the park. You can enjoy the equally stunning views of areas like Tuolumne and Hetch Hetchy while dealing with much less crowding.
  • What should I know about parking in Yosemite?
    Parking in Yosemite Valley fills up early, often by mid-morning, especially at popular trailheads. Arriving before 8 AM or using the shuttle system, when available, can help. It's also a good idea to park once and rely on shuttle services for the day. Parking will be much easier if you are visiting in the late spring or fall.
  • How far in advance should I book accommodation inside Yosemite?
    Lodging and campsites inside Yosemite fill up quickly and are often booked months in advance. It’s recommended to book as soon as possible, especially for peak season. Consider accommodations outside the park if you're unable to secure a spot.
  • How bad is the traffic in Yosemite?
    Traffic can be heavy, especially during peak seasons and holidays. Expect delays on weekends and plan for extra travel time. To minimize this, start your day early and consider staying in or near the park to avoid some of the congestion.
  • Is public transportation available inside Yosemite?
    Yes, Yosemite has a shuttle system, but it doesn't cover all areas and may not run as frequently as needed. During peak seasons, the shuttle is a great way to move around Yosemite Valley. However, if you want to explore other areas, you may need a car.
  • How can I avoid long lines at Yosemite’s main attractions?
    Popular spots like Tunnel View, Yosemite Falls, and Glacier Point can have long lines, especially during peak season. Visiting early in the morning or later in the evening can help avoid the biggest crowds, and visiting in the shoulder season is also recommended. You can also book a tour with an expert guide who will show you the less crowded, but equally stunning areas of the park!
