Yosemite and Giant Sequoias guided day tour from San Francisco

Explore glacially formed cliffs, wildflower-speckled meadows, and hike to the towering Sequoias in the heart of Yosemite’s dynamic wilderness on this guided day tour from San Francisco.

Start your tour in San Francisco and drive in an eco-friendly comfortable mini-coach in the direction of Yosemite. Pass by some exceptional San Francisco sights: catch views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, and the incomparable San Francisco Skyline and head east on the Bay Bridge. Continue into the mountains and listen to the rich history of California’s gold country, passing through some of the first settlements built during the Gold Rush.

Arrive in Yosemite Valley and make your way on a self-guided hike to Tuolumne Grove (2.5 miles long / 4km). Head down the scenic paved path to the enchanted Tuolumne Grove and admire dozens of Giant Sequoia trees.

Enjoy 1.5 hours of free time in Yosemite Valley and wander through the picturesque meadows, check out the Visitor’s Center or just find a serene overlook to sit and reflect. Discover the resilience and beauty of a place that has captured the hearts of visitors throughout the ages. Descend into the famous Yosemite Valley to take in views of Bridalveil Falls, El Capitan, Half Dome, and more. Capture the endless skylines, rock formations, and waterfalls as you enjoy an overview of how Yosemite Park’s unique landscape was formed, who came before, and how the park became the nation’s first-ever protected national park.

Finally drive back to San Francisco.
