★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 180 reviews · 3 days · from $795

Review of a 3-day Yosemite camping tour from San Francisco, with sequoias, High Sierra hikes, guided sightseeing, campfire meals, and free time.

“Our great guide Ollie wowed us with Yosemite's gigantic granite walls, forest hikes, camping cooking, and a great music mix for the road trip. Definitely worth the money to spend the time experiencing the valley and plateau fully. If I'd change anything, I'd trade the commercial valley restaurant on the second day for another camping dinner :)”

See Santa Barbara, Carmel, San Francisco, Yosemite, and the California coast on a fast-paced 3-day tour from Los Angeles.

I think the three day tour is the perfect length of time because of how jam-packed the itinerary is, and how much time you spend on the bus.”

Spend three days exploring Yosemite from San Francisco, with giant sequoias, Tunnel View, free time, transport, and lodging booked separately.

“Yosemite is awesome, a must-see if you are in the area. However, if you can afford it, I would always take the 3-day tour so you have at least one full day to discover the park, since the drive is quite long from SF with 6 hours. The bus drivers, who are the main tour guides since you are on your own in the park, were amazing. They delivered great insights along the way, and the few stops before Yosemite Valley were great choices. What withholds a 5-star rating for me is that the buses were quite old compared to what I’m used to in Europe, and there was no…”
