Embrace Nature on Our Yosemite and Giant Sequoias Tour from San Francisco

Do you want to hike to towering Sequoias and feel small in the face of Yosemite National Park’s dynamic, awe-inspiring wilderness? We think you’ll love this journey into the heart of one of the crown jewels of our country’s national park system.
Just a few hours’ drive from San Francisco, Yosemite National Park is the ideal break from the distractions of the city. Since John Muir’s first glimpse of Tuolumne Meadows, it has captivated and inspired people from all over the world. Today, more than five million people visit this extraordinary place every year. And on this day-long Yosemite and Giant Sequoias Tour from San Francisco, you can immerse yourself in this truly extraordinary place.
One of our professional guides will lead your group through Yosemite Valley before taking in the unforgettable sight of the ancient Giant Sequoias of Tuolumne Grove. You’ll see endless skylines, rock formations, and cascading waterfalls as you enjoy an overview of how this unique landscape was formed, who came before, and how Yosemite became the first ever protected national park in the United States.
Next, strap up your hiking boots and embark on the 2.5-mile (4 km) round-trip hike down to Sequoia Grove, which most day tour visitors do not get the chance to see. With 1.5 hours of free time in Yosemite Valley, you’ll also have the opportunity to wander through the picturesque meadows, check out the Visitor’s Center, or just find a serene overlook to sit and reflect. Discover the resilience and beauty of a place that has captured the hearts of visitors throughout the ages.

Yosemite and Giant Sequoias Tour — Exploring Tuolumne Grove
Located on Tioga Road just east of Crane Flat, the Tuolumne Grove has about two dozen mature Giant Sequoias. They are only visible after a one-mile hike with 500 feet of elevation loss. It’s important to note that the one-mile hike back to the parking lot gains 500 feet and is strenuous. Water is not available; bring drinking water for everyone in your group who will be hiking this trail.
Due to the time constraints of this Yosemite guided tour from San Francisco, you must be able to complete the full hike within 1.5 hours. For most active travelers, this is not a problem. If you feel like this hike may be too much for you, you can join our standard Yosemite Day Tour for an equally enjoyable and memorable experience!
