This was an excellent way to get a taste of Yosemite Park. The bus was comfortable and the stops adequate.

If you must visit a National Park, see Yosemite! Breath taking views, fresh air and fantastic hike to Giant Sequoia Trees. Loved every minute of the tour.
Andy the Tour Guide was brilliant! Excellent driver, and gives great commentary of the areas of interest. I would take the your again!

Amazing place... wear hiking shoes and take proper clothing to really enjoy what this park has to offer. The scenery is breathtaking... you won't be disappointed! Would recommend you stay at least one night as it takes about 3 hours from San Fran to Yosemite. When I go back will stay for a week and go out overnight on some of the hikes.. a truly spectacular place to spend time.....

This was my favourite trip of the holiday. I was a little disappointed witht he giant sequoias, i was expecting them to be a lot bigger than they were (or maybe it was just the ones in the grove we stopped at). I did see wild deer in the woods though. Once we got to yosemite the views were all i had seen and imagined. It was absolutley breathtaking. I would definately reccomend this trip and visit again.Our weather had been perfect, hot but not stifling. Some on our tour saw a bobcat (though i personally missed this as i was in the shop). The guide was fun and informative.

Was great 2 go with "Incredible adventurs", and the guide Thom 2 a 2 day in Yosemite through Viator. Van with 13 pasangers, more personal then Grey line buses i went as well (3 tours: Carmel/Monterey, Muir wood/Soselito and The Sonoma/Napa valies). Also the guide is better. If i knew before i would all the tours with Incredible Adventures. Thom enabeled each of the traveler 2 do activity suited his/hers capabilities.

We went on the Yosemite trip with Andy as our tour guide. The trip was excellent and well worth the money. The scenery for the whole day was spectacular.
Andy was a brilliant guide - really knowledgeable and friendly. I would definately recommend this trip to anyone I know going out to San Francisco, and would do it again if we are ever out this way.

Fantastic trip to Yosemite! Ontime pickup at our hotel, excellent guide (Tom) who explained the itinerary and told great stories, stopped for fresh fruits and goodies, made plenty of potty stops, bought breakfast one day and lunch(!) the second, and drove well and safely on some very scary hairpin roads. Great high country tour, Tom knew where and when to avoid crowds, great photo-ops and very accomodating to the the "senior" passengers (us) who could not tackle the rock climbing. Cedar Lodge was just fine, large clean rooms, great bar and grill. My only negative comment concerns the springs (or lack thereof) on the van - we sat right over the wheels (someone had to) and felt every bump. But all in all it was a wonderful trip that we would not have missed. I definitely will book with Viator again - it was worth every cent. Also met a wonderful group of bus-buddies from all over the world. Thank you, Viator!

AWESOME! Long day but with door to door service and Chris as a guide, it was well worth it. Yosemite is a wonder to behold and this guide truly loves his job and narrates beautifully along the way. The Lodge in Yosemite had lots of picnic tables and cafe for a relaxing lunch.

As a result of my tour trip to Yosemite National Park, I am now a 'tour junkie!' I absolutely loved it! Yosemite National Park was the highight of my trip to the amazing San Francisco- simply breathtaking! Plus, our tour guide was great; very knowledgeable and accommodating! I thoroughly recommend the tour!

I am convinced that the spring is the best time to visit Yosemite. I have been there three times in the summer but it was never like this. The waterfalls were spectacular! You acturally got a bath while viewing them.
I saw waterfalls that I had never seen before because of the snow melt. Speaking of snow, there was still snow on the ground in certain areas, even though the temperature was in the 70s and it was a beatiful spring day. It was kind of surreal.
The driver was great! He shared his love for Yosemite with us on the drive up and his enthusiasm made me more excited. I also liked going when it was cooler and the areas were greener and lusher, as far as growth. It is different in the summertime.
I highly recommend this trip and encourage people to wear comfortable shoes, a hat, sunscreen, and layers of clothing if you go in the spring. Layers will not be necessary in the summer. Pack a picnic lunch, as there are many areas to enjoy the outdoors.
I am hoping to make this trip a regularly scheduled part of my traveling agenda. Breataking vistas so close, relatively speaking. It is well worth it and the scenic beauty is a gem not to be missed.

Our guide Andrew was the best of many we had on our round the world trip. Yosemite day trip was long but well worth the effort. The park was beautiful and the guides comentrary to and from San Fransico was most informative. A must do if going to San Francisco.

A long day just under 15 hours, but well worth it. Obviously in the time available this is an introductory tour to the area and cannot do the National Park justice. However this is an area of stunning beauty which we will definitely return to.
The coach driver/ tour guide was both informative and entertaining. Impressed by his insistence that we drank water regularly and ate at specific times to ensure we were hydrated and sugar levels were high prior to the 1 hour walk to the Giant Sequoias and the self guided tour around Yosemite Falls. Plenty of photo stops along the way and an additional stop on Treasure Island to view San Francisco and the Bay Area at dusk. Thoroughly enjoyable experience
