Top 3 Yosemite Winter Tours

1. Private Tours

If your family has never gone hiking together, we recommend signing up for a private Yosemite winter tour. It's the perfect way to get in some much-needed bonding time! When you customize a private Yosemite winter tour, you can do just that. A local guide will pick you up directly from our hotel and take you on a personalized tour of your choice. You can explore Yosemite Valley, snowshoe along the Merced River, or hike through a grove of giant Sequoias and see some of the largest trees on the planet. No matter which direction you wander, there’s no shortage of beautiful views.

2. Two-Day Yosemite Winter Tours

Put on your hiking boots and don’t forget to bring a camera when you take a Yosemite two-day winter tour. This scenic tour is perfect for guests who want a quick weekend getaway from San Francisco. It includes stops at key points of interest like El Capitan, Half Dome, Yosemite Falls, and Inspiration Point. There’s even an opportunity to go off the beaten path and do a little bit of exploring of your own!

3. Bus Tours

If hiking is not your thing, don’t fret! A bus tour of Yosemite is a fantastic way to enjoy panoramic views of the park from the comfort of a heated motor coach. One of our favorites is the Valley Floor Tour, a two-hour adventure that gives guests an opportunity to see wildlife, flora, and fauna throughout the park. You’ll stop by all the main highlights and learn about the indigenous people and original settlers who occupied the land centuries ago.
