I went for the day, from San Francisco - a long day, but SO worth it - if there was one thing I would recommend people do if they are in SF on vacation, it is to go to Yosemite. Whilst I was only there for the day, it was just breath taking! All the sights were as you imagine,... more

Whilst visiting San Francisco, we decided to get out and see some of the Californian countryside and so decided on a 1 day trip to Yosemite National Park and Yosemite Valley. Although all the tours are operated and booked with Greyline, we got a better price by looking through the various brochures on offer and selecting a different agent. The... more

Yosemite Valley was the most incredible place I have ever visited in my Lifetime. Despite The Fire That was burning nearby and was causing haze in the park, I LOVED IT. Let me tell you about the attractions nearby: First, there's Yosemite Falls. There is an Upper Yosemite Falls And A Lower Yosemite Falls. If you don't have kids, you... more

Yosemite is amazing it is beautiful and it seems untouched by modern day. more

We visited Yosemite in June 2008 and were speechless when we saw the valley for the first time. It is an area of outstanding natural beauty and I would recommend a visit to anybody. It is awe inspiring. I would go back tomorrow if I could. more

If you are looking for a long weekend trip from the San Francisco area (or are lucky enough to have more time), this is the place to go. We drove through Sacramento to hit Hwy 49 and took a detour to Sutter's Mill to see where gold was discovered. That's a different review - but a worthwhile stop. We entered... more

I went camping for one week in the park in May 2008. Even though it rained for the first two days, and the weather was not so ideal, I still found it stunningly beautiful! This is the most beautiful place I have ever been to and I have been to many places. Yosemite National Park is definitely the number one... more

How can I not give Yosemite a 5-star experience? The natural wonders in this park are endless, and breathtaking. As far as the valley "experience", overall it's less than 5-star. If you come in summer, you will be shoulder to shoulder with people. There will be lines everywhere, for everything, including the restrooms. The dining areas are packed, the buses... more

If you only do one national park - this is the one. If you can travel in from the South, although it's a longer route you will travel round a bend and all of a sudden be greeted with an awesome view that will force you to concentrate on your driving!! round the next bend through the tunnel and you... more
