Small Group Yosemite and Giant Sequoias Day Trip from San Francisco

Denise_B, May 2026

Communication was great. ...

Communication was great. Kurt, our driver, contacted us the day before our trip was scheduled. He arrived exactly at the agreed upon time. He shared his information with us and knowledge of our designated tour area and entertained us with information videos on the ride. He was a very safe driver in very challenging driving conditions. We will definitely use this company again.

A pleasant experience

Haven’t travelled to Napa or Sonoma, this tour was a great experience. The bus ride was pleasant and the driver was very knowledgeable. Each one of the wineries had something unique and special about them. The sommeliers were very knowledgeable and pleasant as well.

San Francisco Love Tour

Cyrus, our new San Fran cousin and tour guide extraordinaire

Cyrus was a great. We loved all the knowledge about San Francisco that our new “cousin” shared with us. You just can’t see a city and all its hidden gems without an excursion like this one. Actual tour ran closer to 2 and a half hours but we didn’t mind.

Andreea_D, May 2026

Great tour

We came on a cruise and before the tour that was great communication related to meeting point. We were picked up from the cruise terminal instead of the regular meeting point. The tour guide, Jake, also texted us in the morning the meeting point details. Jake had a great attitude, he was fun and friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. Good music also in the van. Muir woods is a beautiful place for a stroll and there was enough time to explore it. Overall great tour.

Fun and easy to navigate tour

Our driver was fun and knowledgeable in sharing information pertinent to the tour. We especially appreciated his genuine interest in, and enthusiasm for preserving both the history of the area and in the fate of the trees. He was very clear on when things needed to happen.

San Francisco Bay Sunset & City Lights Cruise

Jonathan_S, Apr 2026

Dazzling

Great cruise, with great interesting narration of highlights around the bay area. Including the Golden Gate (you travel under the bridge and back) and cruise close to Sausalito and Alcatraz, and under the Bay Bridge and back past the City now lit up at night toward the second half of the cruise (we went at end of April). Quite dazzling! Can take in sites from inside (warm) or out (cool & windy). More breathtaking and best photo ops at times from outside, so pack layers, sweatshirt and windbreaker. We moved from in to out and back again a few times. And the (mostly old 40's era, but with some more modern) music accompanied was enjoyable. Snacks, beverages, beer, wine, liquor available for purchase.

Napa and Sonoma Premium Small Group Wine Tour from San Francisco

Raul_J, Apr 2026

Lovely day in the Sonoma wine valley 🍷

Very nice tour from San Francisco. Make sure to call the tour operators at least three days in advance to confirm hotel pick otherwise you will be contacted the night before to go to the central stop location. Very nice tour bus, we were a group of 10 and another similar bus of 10 joined us at the wineries. Plenty of time at the several stops to take pics and to have lunch on your own. Sonoma is a pricey town but less so than Napa.

Best of Yosemite & Giant Sequoias Day Trip from San Francisco

For a good Yosemite Time, just let Glenda lead the way

When choosing which tour to book, convenience can be a big factor. You look for a way to get to the location while sometimes being entertained by the tour guide. Glenda at Viator was vastly different than other tours I’ve experienced. I felt truly cared by her during the day. She was attentive to everyone’s needs while keeping a considerate schedule of activities. Glenda’s years of experience also showed when considering recent environmental changes. Case of point, we visited the park a day after a surprising April snow covered some spots of the park. She was very wise about her approach and provided everyone in the group with valuable advise, keeping our safety in mind above everything else. Adding to all this, her storytelling skills were remarkable as well. Glenda made it seem effortless navigating the roads on our way to the park, while peppering the twists and turns with stories that gave dimension and pathos to our visit. I gained new insights and appreciation about the Yosemite park while also marveling and the natural beauty that surrounded us. I could keep writing about this excellent experience, but in case you need it summed it up, the title says it all: For a good Yosemite Time, just let Glenda lead the way
