1.Small Group Yosemite and Giant Sequoias Day Trip from San Francisco

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3,671 reviews · 14 hours (approx.) · from $239Our pick

Small-group Yosemite day trip from San Francisco featuring giant sequoias, Tunnel View, El Capitan, Half Dome, and Yosemite Falls.

“A long day but a very rich and enjoyable tour, with lots of interesting local history and stories shared along the drive. It’s a convenient way to see the main highlights of the park without the stress of driving or planning. I’m giving 4 stars because there was subtle 20% tipping pressure through jokes and hints — a clearer expectation upfront in the tour description would feel more transparent and comfortable. Ultimately, the pay arrangement is between the company and the employee. It's optional to show gratitude and empathy, but the pressure should not be transferred to guests. The ticket price for each person is already higher than other tours,…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,445 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $129

One day in San Francisco with Alcatraz ferry, Muir Woods redwoods, Sausalito views, and a guided city loop with photo stops.

“We enjoyed the tour but we were not informed of Muir Woods being closed until we boarded for the tour. Instead, our driver, who was great, drove us around to ransom spots (one of which we visited on our own the previous day) and a creepy alley was part of the tour (graffiti). He did his best but too bad they didn’t just take us all to Alcatraz or a place more interesting than all of the little odd places.”

“If you're wondering whether to book or not, just do it! You won't regret it. There is so much to see and so many places to go so this eliminates the headache and allows you to sit back and enjoy your trip. The only thing to look for when booking is what hotel you will be staying at for the overnight stay. The Yosemite Valley Hotel has more options and even a Starbucks! The actual tour is like what is listed in the details when you book. Our tour guide was Jayms and he was phenomenal. He explained things thoroughly and we had plenty of time to do the trails,…”
