I just had the best Yosemite tour with Andy Howes from Extranomical Tours and I have to say, Andy is hands down the best guide I’ve ever had! He’s super knowledgeable about the history of the park, the trees, fire management, and just about everything else, but what really made the experience special was his energy and personality. From the moment he welcomed us, I knew we were in good hands. He was fun, friendly, has been sharing all the interesting stories about Yosemite with us throughout our tour and I’ve to say his enthusiasm and energy is very contagious!! He also gave us great recommendations for places to eat and always kept us in the loop about where to find clean restrooms. I would definitely book him again and highly recommend him to anyone visiting Yosemite!

Overall, an excellent tour—I highly recommend Extranomical Tours to anyone visiting San Francisco!
