It was a fantastic experience with a great guide, Pablo. We managed to squeeze in all the main attractions in Yosemite in one day, including the sequoias walk (Toulomne Grove of walks), the Bridal veil falls, El Cspitan, Half dome (from multiple viewing points), the Tunnel view. Stunning place, worth the long drive from San Francisco. Thank you for a fabulous day!

The perfect option for those looking to experience Yosemite while visiting SF. Our group had a few seniors with less mobility, so accessibility and convenience were a priority for us, and Pablo’s tour was perfect for our needs. We even unexpectedly had a medical emergency that required us to cancel our scheduled date last minute, but luckily I reached out to reschedule for the following day, and he had availability! Pablo was extremely accommodating and flexible - he picked us up from our requested location right on time. He had a mini van stocked with plenty of waters for us. The entire tour was efficient but didn’t feel rushed, and we hit all the key stops. We even had time for a sit down lunch at The Ahwahnee hotel, which was beautiful! We left SF at 6am and got back at 9pm. We felt so lucky that the timing worked out, the weather was perfect, and we had Pablo as our guide.

Wonderful day trip from San Francisco to Yosemite with Pablo of Cali Tours. Outstanding tour guide/private driver and very know about key sites at Yosemite. Pablo is delightful and very professional and concerned about his guests’ comfort throughout. Yosemite is extraordinary and we saw so much in one day thanks to Pablo.
