About this activity

This is the ultimate Yosemite sightseeing experience and the best way to see Yosemite in just one day. We'll start off exploring a grove of Giant Sequoias, the largest living tree species on earth, on a 2 mile round trip hike, before heading out to Glacier Point. Once at Glacier Point we'll enjoy birds-eye views of Yosemite's most iconic landmarks like Yosemite Falls, Half Dome and El Capitan as well as Vernal and Nevada Falls! We'll end the day with even more hiking, sightseeing and maybe even a little swimming in the famed Yosemite Valley where we'll see the iconic views from Tunnel View and Bridalveil Falls!
