Muir woods is the best part of the tour
We were picked up outside of our hotel, got to get a free tour of some city sites while on our drive over to Muir. The woods were beautiful, it was raining out but still breath taking and amazing to see. The roads to the woods are really winding- so take note if you get car sick easily. Learned a lot, saw a lot, had a great time

Yosemite National Park 2-Day Tour from San Francisco with Lodging

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.

Must see and do
This is a must do if one is visiting SF for the first time. Cool San Francisco has offered us the opportunity to experience it without the hassle of having to worry about driving there yourself. The drive is beautiful with ample time for a pit stop and shop for food. Our driver Aidan was very nice, professional, and knowledgeable.

Yosemite Valley Tour Review - Incredible Adventures
I had a great experience on the Yosemite trip with Incredible Adventures. The tour was very well organized, and everything went according to plan. Our tour guide was exceptional. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and explained everything in great detail. I decided to take the Mist Trail, and her guidance made the hike much easier to navigate. She showed me where to board the shuttle, explained where to go to get the best views of Vernal Falls, and made sure I understood how to get back to the van. Thanks to her clear instructions, I was able to complete the hike within the allotted time and return to the van comfortably.We left early at around 6:20 AM and got back quite late, around 10 PM, but it was absolutely worth it. Yosemite was beautiful, and the entire day was a memorable experience.The only downside was that the coach’s AC was not kept on after the initial part of the journey. We were asked to open the windows instead. Given the long travel time, I would have preferred the coach to be fully air-conditioned throughout the trip.Other than that, everything worked as planned. Overall, I would definitely recommend Incredible Adventures for a Yosemite trip, especially because of the excellent
