Private Yosemite Tour from SF

Can you put your phone down for a few days of email-free Yosemite hiking?

If you can afford it, a private, luxury tour of Yosemite is the best way to get the most out of your visit to the famous national park. The beloved wilderness area is so popular, in fact, that in 2019, before Covid-19 hit, more than 4.5 million people visited Yosemite. That figure dipped to 2.3 million in 2020 and went back up to over 3.3 million in 2021. Particularly in the summer, more than half a million people walk the trails of Yosemite each month.


You’ll be competing with the hordes for the scenic views and best trails if left to your own devices or if you’re on a budget tour. Do you want to mingle with the crowds or experience the natural wonder that is Yosemite National Park with an expert guide who knows where to go and when for the best, less crowded views?

Yes, you might be among the throngs if you don’t want to miss a particular sight, but even then, our experienced and knowledgeable guides know the best times to visit the valleys, the ancient giant sequoias, the picturesque meadows and expansive wilderness areas so that you can see what visitors to the park witnessed in past centuries.
