✨️YGS reviews speak to just how smart it is to hire a quality guide service with knowledgeable and passionate guides🥰 "Yosemite Valley in Yosemite National Park came to life thanks to our wonderful Tour Guide, Austin. He was very knowledgeable, fun, kind, professional and shared great history points of this majestic place. We had a large group and only one day to visit the park. We appreciated Austin’s vast knowledge of Yosemite’s history and places that are off the beaten path. We will return so we can visit Glacier Point."

Our newly renovated home is located on a quiet forested road, close to town and only 30 minutes to Yosemite. Situated on a quiet lane in the historic town of Groveland, our private aspen themed property is a forest oasis for you to relax and enjoy.

A beautiful view of nature taking care of the meadows in YV. Flooding of the Merced River beyond bank full is a GOOOOOD thing! Do you know the importance of meadows being flooded occasionally? 🌲🌲🌲 It keeps the trees from encroaching and taking over! We need meadows, wildlife needs meadows🦌🦊🐀🐁🐿🐿🐸 #weguideyou #PrivateTours #fivestarguideservice #biology #ecology

#welovestepontours When Yosemite closes because of flooding threats...we take off to find adventures elsewhere!🚌🌲🌲 MURPHY'S🍷wine/history tour and CALAVERAS BIG TREES STATE PARK! YAY! What an adventure! (we still talk about YNP anywhere we go though!)😃 #ilovemyjob #fivestarguideservice
