Overview

This full-day bus tour lasts about 14 hours and departs from South Lake Tahoe with a professional guide who provides narration throughout the trip. The journey covers many notable sites in Yosemite National Park, including stops at Bridalveil Fall and El Capitan in the Valley, as well as Tuolumne Meadows and Tioga Pass at the park entry. Visitors have time to explore Yosemite Valley itself for around four hours, and there are several additional scenic stops such as Tunnel View, Lembert Dome, Olmsted Point, Valley View, Tenaya Lake, Mono Lake just outside the park, and a photo stop at Half Dome. The tour includes morning snacks, a picnic lunch, and drinks like beer and wine. National Park entrance fees and fuel surcharges are covered. Depending on the season and weather, the guide may lead an optional nature walk to either Yosemite Falls or Bridalveil Falls. Gratuities are not included in the price. Participants should dress in smart casual clothing appropriate for warmer temperatures in Yosemite Valley. This tour is not recommended for children aged three or younger.
