Excellent - Trip was excellent and everything was on time. Our travel guide Laura was awesome! She gave us enough breaks, explaining about the valley as we were traveling. They provided us indian vegetarian meal which was excellent. We were honestly not expecting indian meal so it was good surprise for us.

A wonderful way to spend the day at Yosemite! - We had a wonderful experience with our tour guide, Daniel! He was very knowledgeable, very professional and a lot of fun! and gave is a great history of the park. He went out of his way to make sure we had a great time and get to see all the wonderful places that are included on the tour - and provided more details along the way! Thank you Daniel, for being very accommodating and for making this a memorable trip for us! We enjoyed the lunch at Ahwahnee hotel, the staff ans the food was excellent as well - To the tour operator and Viator, thank you for resolving the confusion about the lunch credit - your quick reply and resolution was incredible! We’ve used Viator on both international and local trips, and had always a great experience with them!

Great exploration of Yosemite National Park - It was my first visit to Yosemite Park with my husband. Lucky enough we had Daniel Gonzales as our tour guide. He said “You are safe with Daniel” while driving the narrow , zigzagging road towards Yosemite. Daniel is a very considerate, protective and very knowledgeable guy for the trip. He shared with us all the hidden secrets and stories of this park, introduced us to all trees and plants around us. He made sure that we captured the best views of the park. He is best with photography. May God bless you Daniel and Thank you very much for the remarkable and wonderful time you shared with us.

Great Semi Private Tour of Yosemite! - Mike was knowledgeable about the park. He took us to the valley in the morning since it was cool. He was very low key and wanted us to do what we wanted. Stopped at Ahwanee hotel and had coffee and a pastry. Then he picked a good spot for the picnic lunch that was pretty near a river. We saw ALL the major sites at Yosemite. The day went fast and the vehicle was super comfortable. It was nice being semi private! Not too many people in the vehicle. I highly recommend this company!

Disappointed - Tour started almost 1 hr. after scheduled time. Van broke down, had to get jump start from another park visitor in the park. Tour operator did not make reservations for lunch and the Awahnee was busy, so lunch took up 2 1/2 hrs while we waited for everyone to finish. The tour operator did not cover lunch, but gave a $30 pp credit, which doesn’t go far at the Awahnee, so it should not be advertised including lunch. We did not see everything promised. Driver was very nice and seemed knowledgeable about the sights we did see.

Would NOT recommend--choose another company - I chose this even though it was more expensive than other options due to the good reviews. I would not recommend using this company. It is not worth the additional cost. The communication ahead of time was confusing and unclear. More importantly, the tour guide was unprepared and should not be providing tours.
