Description:

Home to hundreds of wildlife species, thousands of plant species, countless waterfalls, and more than 1,000 square miles of wild terrain – Yosemite is one of the most magnificent national parks in the nation. Naturalist and conservationist John Muir, who advocated for the creation of the park, called it “by far the grandest of all the special temples of nature (he) was ever permitted to enter.”

On this full-day tour, we’ll travel by luxury transport to the Yosemite Valley, stopping during the summer time at Glacier Point, an overlook with unparalleled views of park icons, Half Dome and Yosemite Falls. Once we arrive we’ll ditch the van and meander through valley meadows, gaze at granite peaks, and revel at towering waterfalls on short nature hikes around the park.

Yosemite MoonYour naturalist Escape Artist guide will give you a sense of how this land was formed and how the ecosystem operates today – touching on topics such as geology, geography, glaciology, wildlife, conservation, and the history of the Native Americans who lived in park lands for generations. We’ll also be on the lookout for birds and animals such as mule deer, black bears, foxes, spotted owls, white-headed woodpeckers, and bobcats.

The tour includes a Cascadian Safari Lunch paired with one of our favorite local wines.
