Yosemite National Park private tours

Located in California's Sierra Nevada mountains, Yosemite National Park is one of America's great treasures. Whether you want to hike Half Dome, watch climbers ascend El Capitan, stroll among Sequoias or just stand and stare from the breathtaking viewpoints, taking a Yosemite private tour with a local guide will ensure you experience the park in safety and comfort.Painters first captured Yosemite's beauty in the 1850s, resulting in increased visitors which thrilled entrepreneurs but worried conservationists. Public pressure led to the Yosemite Grant of 1864, preserving the valley for recreational purposes in perpetuity. Thank goodness, because this place is gorgeous.The deep U-shaped valley attracts climbers, hikers and skiers, depending on the season, so ask your guide to craft a custom tour. But you don't need to be a rugged mountaineer to enjoy Yosemite's delights. Shutterbugs can snap away on a guided photography tour, while tree huggers can snuggle up under towering Redwoods.
