About this activity

The Yosemite Valley Hiking Tour is a tour of Yosemite Valley, highlighting major points of interest and visiting popular locations you might see in social media. In addition to providing you with natural and geological history, this tour can point out some of the lesser known ‘gems’ around Yosemite Valley. This is a tour by foot; hiking and walking among the iconic and popular features within the valley. We will use the free valley shuttle as required but plan to hike/walk with your guide while avoiding the valley vehicular traffic.
