Amazing experience
Eventhough we didn't get to see any bears or coyotes, this was still a trip of a lifetime. Phil our guide was excellent, very knowledgable and very helpful. The stops and look out points were great and we didn't feel rushed. The scenery was awe inspiring and the itinery was great. My husband has limited mobility and we adapted to his needs without compromising the experience. We opted to stay overnight at yosemite valley lodge and were glad it was just one night, as although the surfaces were clean the floor was dirty and covered in chocolate wrappers from a ptevious occupant. The location was worth it and we got to see the deer and stella jays, plus the walk to cooks meadow and lower yosemite falls was close by. We used the free park shuttle which was helpful and easy to navigate. We wished we had more time and money to stay longer and see more but it was an amazing experience.

1000/10!! Too good, honestly one of the best trips I’ve done
I joined the three day camping trip from SFO and have absolutely loved it. Blessed with the weather, a small hut super friendly female only group (agin hit the jackpot on this), and FABULOUS route. Loved every single minute of it. The trip was planned to cover the best spots in the valley and around, and our guide Josh was funny and pretty knowledgeable with everything that’s going on. 1000/10! Have recommended to my family to do the trip also.

Awesome trip to Muir and beyond

Awesome trip to Muir and beyond
I hired Nik to show me and five friends the highlights on the other side of the Golden Gate Bridge - Muir Woods, Sausalito, the bunkers, and so on. It was fantastic for multiple reasons. First, the itinerary was a true collaboration between us - I had a ton of ideas and Nik figured out how to translate that into a coherent itinerary that made logical sense taking into account distances, times of day, and the weather. Second, because he grew up in the area, his commentary was personal anecdotes that put what we were seeing in greater sociological context. Third, whenever the weather turned crappy, which happened a lot, he could instantly pivot to a perfect Plan B. Fourth, he went above and beyond to arrange things we needed that I could not have done myself because I was coming from out of town, including a birthday cake (!) for someone in the group, which was served in the perfect scenic spot. Fifth, his recommendation lunch place was awesome and I never would have known about it. Sixth, it was just a good vibe overall with someone who was on our wavelength and not just a robotic and overly formal guide. Anyway, I could go on and on. Suffice it to say, highly recommend.

What a Wonderful 2 Day Adventure

Yosemite National Park 2-Day Winter Tour from San Francisco

What a Wonderful 2 Day Adventure
We had the most wonderful time on our Incredible Adventures trip to Yosemite. Unfortunately our original trip was changed but Beth, at Incredible Adventures, did everything she could to manage and accommodate our expectations, she went above and beyond. Our guide on the first day, Phil Novak, also went above and beyond. He was so thorough with his narrative and pointed everything out on our journey to the park and also whilst we were in the national park. We felt sad when he left at the end of our first day. However, his instructions and guidance on how to spend our 2nd day made sure we got the best out of it. Sadly the guide who collected us and took us back to San Francisco fell quite short. No narrative at all, no interesting facts - nothing. He was a disappointment - the people on his day trip said he was completely uninformative for their whole day. THANK GOODNESS WE HAD PHIL NOVAK AND BETH ON OUR TEAM.

Fantastic and very comprehensive
Amazing day trip. Our guide fulfilled all our additional wishes. We had a great. City tour with all the highlights and a very comprehensive tour through Silicon Valley including Stanford University. We visited Meta, NVIDIA, Google, Apple, and Steve Jobs' house, Microsoft Corp, etc. The service was truly excellent; we arrived in the morning from the ship, and she picked us up at the port with our luggage and dropped us off at the airport in the afternoon. If you want to experience a nice day and are flying in the late afternoon, this is a brilliant private tour and worth every dollar. Thank you for the wonderful time.

Best SFO Tour you can book!
I always book locals for private tours - because my time on spot is super limited - Nick is maybe one of the best guides you can have. Just tell him what you want to know or see or whats your interesst and he will make something just for you. He knows exactly where to go to, what angle or spot to use for your mobile phone and the results are incredible. Thanks alot for your time and talks out there - and greets to your nephew and the Burrito shop!HR

San Francisco to Las Vegas Grand Canyon 4 Day Tour

Didn't get Vegas night tour but days 2 and 3 were amazing Thanks Simon
We booked this tour which said it was in english last minute due to being let down by another operator. We had problems with comunications because uk phones wouldn't provide phone or momile data cover. However the organisers persisted and we got ourselves to the pick up early but never received the full itinerary. we were taken to another pick up in Oakland but had to wait over an hour before a minibus picked us up. Everyone else was chinese and spoke very little English. The driver Ron could speak fair english and was friendly. Because of the delay we got to Vegas late and missed the complementary night tour. but were offered a night tour for 50dollars each. We were dropped off at the Strat which was excellent and a Cinese couple Mr and Mrs Lam helped us out with confirming arrangements for day 2. Days 2 and 3 were great we changed to a 50 seater bus and a new Guide Simon Dong. We were still the only 2 non Chinese on the bus but Simon was fluent chinese and spoke very good English did a live comentary in both languages. We visited the Grand Canyon Imax and had lunch then went into the Canyon for the afternoon then ended up at Page Days in, Day 3 we left page at Days Inn at Dawn and were at Horseshoe bend for sunrise which was amazing. From there we visited Antelope Canyon, Lake Powell and Glenn Canyon Dam then had a scenic drive from North Arizona back to the Strat via south Utah and Nevada. We left the trip in Vegas as we were flying on to Miami. Thanks Simon great job.

Amazing Tour with Kind People and Great Memories
I truly enjoyed the 2-day Yosemite tour. Our guide MITCH was very kind and thoughtful — he spoke slowly and used simple English so that even I, as a non-native speaker, could easily understand. He also took us to many great photo spots and helped us take wonderful pictures. Everything was well organized and the hotel was in a great location — very convenient and comfortable after a long day of exploring. I also made new friends with other participants, and we had such a fun time together. I really appreciate the guide’s kindness and highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Yosemite.

Pat was our tour guide and driver for our impromptu winery trip to Sonoma. She was very knowledgeable, helped us with recommendations, lunch reservations and overall information about the area. We've been to Sonoma before, but learned new things and had new places to discover. She's great and would recommend her highly!!!

An exciting day in Silicon Valley
I don't usually write reviews. Today I make an exception because: Everything was super organized. Peb our female guide had a lot of knowledge about the companies and the vibe in Silicon Valley and imparted it to us in an interesting way. That's exactly what we had in mind. She was even able to give us a short ride in a driverless car, which is not currently unlocked as an app for non-US citizens. Thanks again for the great day.
