Total Yosemite Experience & Giant Sequoias

Highlights / General details

Our one-day combination of Yosemite National Park & the Giant Sequoias tour from San Francisco is a great way to get the most out of your Yosemite Tour. Our Yosemite One-Day Tour maximizes the time in Yosemite National Park by starting early and traveling efficiently in a smaller group. The tour spends more time in the park (at least five hours) than any other one day Yosemite tour available. In the Yosemite Valley leg, we generally stop to see El Capitan, Half Dome, Yosemite Falls, Bridalveil Falls, Inspiration Point (aka Tunnel View). Unlike most tours, we will also drive to a higher altitude and a lesser traveled part of Yosemite National Park, for a chance to hike in the evergreen forest to see a grove of Giant Sequoia trees, the world's largest living things.
