Fantastic comprehensive overview of Yosemite. - This tour is a perfect way to get a comprehensive overview of Yosemite if you're staying at South Lake Tahoe. Our guide John was so informative, personable, engaging and focused on making sure everyone had a great time. It's a long day for sure but we had over 8 hours in the park, even getting in some bonus stops since traffic was lighter. John really knows the park and it's so obvious he has a passion to show the beauty of Yosemite to his guests! He even supplied breakfast and lunch for our tour, both were delicious! My only suggestion would be to have a bit more time at the store in Crane Flats to shop for souvenirs as the store we stopped at didn't have a great selection. Other than that, the day was perfect in every way.

Once-in-a-lifetime experience! - This tour was amazing! I saw and experienced so much more with the group than I ever could have done on my own in the same amount of time. Snowshoe John was friendly and SO knowledgeable about Yosemite and the surrounding area, about everything from geography to history to the plants and animals around. He also happens to be a good cook! The picnic lunch was great. Definitely recommend this trip. It's more than worth the price!

Fun and informative tour! - John is one of the best excursion guide we have ever had. He is so knowledgeable about the area and was considerate of the need to stop for a restroom and snacks. The breakfast and lunch were fun picnics. It was obvious that he prepared the meals with alot of consideration! We definitely would recommend this tour with John.

Yosemite experience - Snowshoe John was a great guide and a good driver! We encountered icy roads and blowing wind but he handled everything very well. He gave us ALOT of information about the park based on his own experiences in the park. The snack and lunch offerings were excellent choices with plenty to go around. The stops were well timed and the photo ops were incredible! All around a great experience and well worth the cost. Thank you, Snowshoe John!

AMAZING Day!!!!!!!! - What a fabulous day trip...filled with beautiful sights and much-learned information from Snowshoe John!!!!!!!!!!! Words cannot describe the beautiful mountains, waterfalls, lakes, etc. that we were able to see during our time in this wonderful national park. Snowshoe John is filled with knowledge of this area and he was so eager to share it with us. He had everything so well-organized throughout our day.....from the breakfast/dinner stops to the picnic lunch in the park to the hike later in the day. So well-planned and, thanks to our courteous fellow passengers, everything went smoothly and on time. We highly recommend taking this tour if you're visiting Lake Tahoe, but reserve as early as you can as this tour is offered only once a week........on a Thursday....and it is not available throughout the entire year.
