Fantastic, amazing and spectacular! An absolutely great trip though one of the most beautiful places on earth with a very knowledgeable guide. Daniel was fabulous. He knew the park inside and out and we feel like we got a true education, not just information, from him.
An unforgettable Yosemite adventure with Daniel If you’re visiting Yosemite, book a 4x4 jeep tour with Daniel. It was an absolute privilege to spend the day with him and simply put, it was the best money we spent on our whole trip. Booking and communication were easy from start to finish, which set the tone for the whole day. Daniel has lived in the park his entire life and it shows. His knowledge isn’t just tour guide facts, it’s a lifetime of real history and stories you won’t find in any guidebook. He took us to spots we’d never have found on our own, with photo opportunities at every turn, and pointed out details we’d have driven straight past. We even saw a bear and her cub and a couple of coyotes and learned about traditional uses of the flora and forna used by the indigenous people of Yosemite. He could answer any question we had. Lunch was a real highlight too: a wonderful picnic by a stream in the woods, somewhere we’d never have discovered ourselves. We felt genuinely privileged to see Yosemite this way. We didn’t have to think about planning a route or worrying about missing the highlights. Daniel just knows exactly what to show you and when. We came away feeling like we’d got Yosemite’s full story, not just the postcard views. Can’t recommend this experience highly enough. If Daniel is your guide, you’re in for a treat.
If you’re thinking about booking the private Jeep tour, just do it—you won’t regret it! It is worth every penny and truly the best tour you can book. You’ll experience Yosemite like never before and see places you likely wouldn’t be able to discover on your own. My husband and I took the tour in June, and our guide, Daniel, was absolutely amazing. He knows the park like the back of his hand, showed us the most beautiful spots, and shared the most interesting stories and insights. He is truly a gem and made our experience unforgettable!
Laura was the BEST! She was so knowledgeable, personable, funny, and generous with her time! It was a FULL day and we left exhausted in the best way. The jeep made manuvering easy the open top was adventurous .If you are even considering this as an option, DO IT!!!
Dave, our Keep tour guide was fantastic. He was friendly, supper flexible and went above and beyond to ensure that our tour and time on Yosemite was memorable
Cynthia picked us up right on time (she was early). She was pleasant and informative. We enjoyed our trip and saw Washburn Point, Glacier Point, Bridalveil Fall, Curry Village, Yosemite Meadow, Yosemite Falls, and more. :) She was patient with my wish to capture every wildflower. :) We also had a lovely picnic in a quiet spot (Cynthia knows all the spots!) this was our second full day in Yosemite and informed us on what we wanted to spend more time on.
We had an amazing tour to Yosemite with our tour guide Daniel from Crossroad Tours. Daniel is very knowledgeable about the park and had many great history stories that even my children were entertained. Yosemite was beautiful with some many photo opportunities and a very memorable experience. We would love to come back and take another tour, it was the best part of our trip.
The jeep was great. Laura did an excellent job getting us thru and around the park We were able to see the whole southern Park in one day avoiding all the traffic. She also new of a private picnic table along a small creek with nobody around, secluded and quiet. Trip was 9 hours long. Well worth the time spent. Also I did not have to drive😃
Our jeep tour of Yosemite was money well spent. Our guide John was incredible. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the park and knew how to access all the main sights with ease. Having John as our guide alleviated all of our stress and answered many of our questions so that we could truly relax and enjoy the views. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you only have one day in the park, but also if you have multiple days. The tour was so thorough that we had more time to explore other sights and experiences during our visit.
Our guide, Daniel, was outstanding and extremely knowledgeable. He was very courteous and answered all of our questions with even more additional information. We learned so much!!
