After arriving at the airport in Fresno, Sacramento, Oakland or San Francisco, secure your rental car and drive to your accommodations near Yosemite National Park. Check into the lodge and settle in for the night.

Meet your guide this morning for a full day of exploring Yosemite Valley. Explore the valley's highlights- deep valleys, beautiful meadows, towering giant sequoias, and vast wilderness. Based upon current conditions and your desired activity level, your guide will select a series of short walks or hikes, allowing you to truly immerse in Yosemite's spectacular beauty. It's a truly spectacular day of awe-inspiring sights. Return to the hotel in the late afternoon.

Meet your private guide this morning for another full day of hiking and sightseeing in Yosemite National Park. Visit the famous lookout Glacier Point, looming high above Yosemite Valley and directly across from iconic Half Dome. Set out on a short hike to the top of Sentinel Dome, offering 360 degree views of the High Sierras and Yosemite Falls, perhaps choosing to continue on an optional hike to Taft Point for views of Yosemite Falls and El Capitan.

This afternoon, visit the impressive grove of giant sequoias, some of the largest living things on Earth. Plan on seeing the 1800-year old Grizzly Giant, one of the largest trees in the park. Return to the hotel in the late afternoon.
