Mark was very good . Knew the park and saved us a lot of time aggravation with the traffic in the park. I would use him again for sure.

I am a Los Angeles native. I have a zest for life and knack for adventure! I love to experience all of the gems that this beautiful city has to offer. Whether it is a day at the beach, local treks, the city attractions, Hollywood glamour, or taking in the splendor of Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, or the thrill of Las Vegas -- I will help you to experience the "wow" factor! After twenty years of the corporate grind, now that my youngest daughter is off to college, it is my time to pursue a career that I love! My passion for traveling has lead me to this new career as a professional tour guide. I have long been the go-to source for friends and family who want to have the adventure of a lifetime experiencing the wonders of California and beyond. Now, I will treat you just like my closest friends and customize an amazing tour experience that you will never forget! As a photographer, I also have a passion for finding the exceptional beauty in the ordinary. I will take you to the perfect spot to experience an amazing sunset, a semi-private bluff and cove at the beach, or an incredible view of the city skyline, Yosemite, and the Grand Canyon. As a professional driver, I also know how best to navigate the city traffic to best maximize your precious tour time! You will find that my tours are like snowflakes -- no two are exactly alike because I will always customize something special to make your experience unique to your desires, interests and activity level! All ages are welcome - I am great with everyone from 9 months to 99 years young! Let's go! There are no restrictions with this tour.

Yosemite is a magical place shared with us by a great guide and lovely person. Mark is a terrific guide. He is very professional, he adapted the tour as we went to suit our interests and used his knowledge to have us in the best places at the right times. We have taken with us the passion that he has for Yosemite and will always have the memories of this beautiful place. We also toured LA with Mark. Again, Mark was knowledgeable and passionate with the capacity to share that personally and professionally

Mark brought Yosemite Valley to life, sharing the history, culture, and future with us. He allowed us to explore those things we most wanted to see while revealing many hidden gems and new experiences. From rock climbing, hiking, scrambling or just chilling in a hammock by a river Mark helped used his innate knowledge of the weather and sunrises/sets to make sure we saw everything at its most beautiful.
