This tour was a great bargain! What a good price for everything we saw and did, and I even splurged on some of the extra activities that you can partake in. Our guide told us that Solvang means "sunny field" in Danish, and this small villag..e was very fascinating. I enjoyed being in a town, which reminded me of Europe. Hearst Castle was a fantastic palace, we were able to take pictures but without the flash and they came out nicely. I simply loved the castle and its antique architecture; it reminded me of the many castles found in my home country, Scotland. I had always wanted to see the Golden Gate Bridge in person, and it is really an impressive feat. I went on the San Francisco Bay Cruise in order to get up close and personal with the bridge. It was spectacular! My wife wishes we had opted for the Fisherman's Wharf though because she really wanted to walk along the pier and try the delicious seafood- but she was glad she came on the cruise with me. We both thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Yosemite National Park and wished we could have stayed more time there- but alas, our trip was over. I will be back though and when I do I would like to do another tour with tours4fun.Read full review
This was our 1st bus-tour ever, and with our 4 year old daughter (first time travelling). We worried about many issues, including being with so many Asian (mainly Chinese) tourists and bilingual explanations, especially as we are typical Am..ericans and picky about many things. Turns out we'd much rather go on an Asian tour in the future than with a majority of Americans - no complaints from the Chinese tourists who were very quiet and respectful and don't bother anyone in any way - ideal travel companions. Much better than picky and whiny typical Americans like us hehe. ;) Charles (our tour guide) hosted us solo for his first time on a tour and he was just SOO nice, gave great explanations of what we were seeing in good English (then Mandarin Chinese translation for the rest of the tourists after English). He was so polite, respectful, efficient, caring & ultra patient - a dream guide and along with the skilled bus driver, doing a thankless job, so our THANKS to Charles (and the bus driver whose name I don't recall) for making the experience so memorable! One caveat we didn't read well about - there is additional cost in the form of a service fee which is used to pay your tour guide and bus driver separately (this info is in the details & terms but we had missed it). Basically bring LOTS of cash (say $400-$500 to be safe) as you'll pre-pay for the optional extras in cash on the bus like the SF City Tour and Hearst Castle for example. Your tour guide nicely gets all the tickets for you for your group. Great tour but also understand you're limited to 45 mins to 1 hour on average for site seeing and picture taking and eating, so you must be efficient and fast. Also note that the bus bathroom is difficult to use when moving and hopefully you can hold your need for the restroom and wait for stop/eat/bathroom breaks every 2 to 2-1/2 hours on the trip (well spaced & planned).

Gozan de la gira asiática con los clientes y guÃa profesional. Los únicos puntos negativos: tuvimos que madrugar 4 de la mañana para conseguir el segundo dÃa a Yosemite, es viajar mucho y hay que ser conscientes de que es pro..bable que tenga que pagar dinero adicional .. (he pagado adicionalmente 90 $ de propina, Hurst-entrada, la ciudad y paseo en barco, sin incluir los alimentos). Los asientos son cómodos, hay una emergencia-cuarto de baño, pero esta vez tuve un autobús (n º 238, creo) que era al parecer un poco más viejo y no tenÃa salida de emergencia (por ejemplo, ninguna posibilidad de salir por las ventanas).Read full review
Mi familia y yo disfrutamos mucho esta visita. El turismo era grande. Solvang era agradable. La empresa hizo un trabajo maravilloso que muestra muchos lugares de San Francisco y los aspectos más destacados de la ciudad. Yosemite es un lu..gar bonito y tranquilo para visitar. Hearst Castle fue muy interesante e informativa.Read full review
Creo que no viaje a San Francisco está completo sin una visita a este gran icono americano: Golden Gate Bridge! Lo hice para visitar tres veces y las tres veces que fue consumido por la niebla! Estoy muy contento de ver el puente en un d..Ãa soleado! Los puntos de vista en todo el puente son hermosas, la estructura se puede ver desde mitad de camino y es realmente increÃble! Es un puente con una visita gratis, sin obligación con unas vistas impresionantes de la bahÃa, la ciudad y sus alrededores!!Read full review
Durante el Tour, nosotros visitamos Yosemite y sus famosas caÃdas y formaciones de piedra. Fue un viaje tan maravilloso. Aproveche su tiempo en Yosemite y vea el valle de Yosemite y los grandes árboles sequiaos mientras tiene tiempo p..ara disfrutarlo por sà mismo. Puede visitar el valle de Yosemite, El Capitán, Bridal Veil Falls, Las CaÃdas de Yosemite y los grandes árboles sequiaos. ¡Es Maravilloso!Read full review

Never took a tour before, after my experience, I must say that the tour made a very good impression for tours4fun for the 3 days until it was time to go home. It started out where Mark ( tour guide ) Great Guy very informative and very know..ledgeable of every point and site that we visited including San Francisco , Hearst Castle, and Yosemite Park. The Bus is surely clean, spacious, rules were applied on the bus, however in my condition i was motion sickness so i stood most of the time going to Yosemite Park ( Laughing ). Mark made me sit in front when it was our turn to sit towards the back. Mark is very understanding and he actually sat in the back in my chair. Funny ! But cool because he cares for the people/tourists. I give Mark A@@plush; for that. You have a great tour guide. I hope you keep him for a long time! Alot of internationals touring and made a few friends although my family was with me. I felt i was the Photographer Consultant in the bus teaching the people how to take great shots :). Anyways, the tour is something i can't really put on words because you have to experience it and don't expect anything. Just go with it and enjoy yourself. I wouldn't mind repeating that tour again. I have alot of smiles when i came home. I actually made a few friends and i miss them already. If anything I wish the tour lasted more than 3 days. Good to meet good people, eat good food, and most off JESUS our bus driver. Great Driver !!! A@@plush; for JESUS i also miss that guy! The Hotels clean, spacious, quiet, and free wifi so bring your laptop. :) for those that use Skype to talk to your love ones far away. Now going home we had to swtich buses, to accommodate the ones going back to O.C and the airport. I guess there was another Tour Guide named MiMi why he told me his name was MiMi Funny. But his real name is Paul. I guess he's either one in a bad mood or just totally angry. D@@plush; for him. Sorry he wasn't friendly. Plus he sat next to me. Other than that, I had a great and wonderful time. Thank You Mark & JESUS for a great 3 day tour! If anyone decides to take this tour, make sure you ask for Mark !!Read full review
We recently did the 2-day tour with an overnight stay in Yosemite View Lodge and loved it. Such a great way to see many of the highlights in the park without worrying about driving yourself or finding out where to go, what roads are closed/..open etc (especially during the winter season).
Our tour guide/driver the first day (we believe his name was Rob) was extremely knowledgable and helpful, and even offered to drop us off at the hotel outside the park so we didn’t need to take public transport and were able to enjoy a few more stops! He definitely made our first day of the tour great.
We highly recommend doing this tour, especially if you don’t have access to a car or aren’t comfortable driving yourself in winter conditions.Read full review
We were with tour guide Ben to Yosemite winter one day tour from SanFrancisco. On time pickup and departing. Useful tips throughout the trip and also self walking tour around the park valley. Ben has sharp eyes spotting rock climbers who we..re climbing on ElCapitan. We could hardly see them with our eyes. Highly recommended on this.Read full review
An incredible day with a very knowledgeable and caring tourguide Roman who knows the park inside out.
I thoroughly recommend whether you can or can’t visit sequoias (we could not) Yosemite has to be one of the most incredible places on th..e planet.Read full review
