Total Yosemite Experience & Giant Sequoias Description

Tour group in magnificent Yosemite valley, Yosemite Tour

Yosemite and Giant Sequoias One-Day Tour. Our one-day combination of Yosemite National Park & the Giant Sequoias tour from Yosemite Falls is a great way to get the most out of your Yosemite Tour. Our Yosemite One-Day Tour maximizes the time you spend in Yosemite National Park by starting early and traveling efficiently in a 15 Passenger Van or mini-bus. This allows us to cover both Yosemite Valley & the Giant Sequoias in one day and spend 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), and Yosemite Village. Unlike most tours, we also drive to a higher altitude, and a lesser traveled part of Yosemite National Park, for a chance to hike (two miles round trip) in the evergreen forest to see a Tuolumne Grove of Giant Sequoias, the world's largest living things.

* DURING WINTER MONTHS *
Winter clothes, especially shoes or boots with rubber soles and treads, are recommended.
We will always do what we can to make your trip enjoyable, but safety is “Job 1”, so the route and itinerary may be changed due to snow depth, road conditions, construction projects and detours.
Note: The Giant Sequoias hike on the Yosemite Tour is dependent on snow levels and trail conditions from October to April.
