  • 5A Day at Sequioa National Park

    Hunter was a very knowledgeable guide who made our day adventure into Sequoia National Park enjoyable, thought provoking and fun. He led us to various areas navagating the crowds and switchback roads with ease. He allowed ample time to enjoy each stop. The lunch provided was amazing, but the quiet, peaceful area was simply breathtaking. It truly was an amazing day hanging out with Hunter, family, new friends and the giant Sequoia's!!

    The tour was amazing. Scott was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the environment, giving us a wealth of information about all aspects of the park. He was also thoughtful and considerate of us, tailoring to our abilities. He exceeded our expectations in every way! Wish I could give him more stars!!

  • 5Best way to see Sequoia

    We can't recommend this tour enough. Paul was a perfect guide from start to finish. He is very knowledgable and cares about what he shows you. We were able to see everything we hoped to see, as well as special treats we would never have known to look for. It was so nice to let him take care of everything and not having the stress of getting lost or missing anything. We were in excellent hands and this added to us being able to appreciate and enjoy the beauty of the area. We were extremely happy with our tour!

  • 4Sequoia National Park Tour

    Picked up on time by our guide. Hunter Is a nice person and did a good job talking about quite a few details surrounding the Seqoia rational Park. We stopped at several points in the park and had a good amount of time to see the trees. The lunch that was included was really good. Ours was a small group of 6 people. It was a very nice experience.

About Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park

Sequoia and Kings Canyon are two adjoining national parks in California's southern Sierra Nevada, home to giant sequoia groves and deep granite canyons.

The two parks are managed together on the western slope of the southern Sierra Nevada, rising from foothills of oak and chaparral to granite peaks of more than 4,000 metres. In the Giant Forest, the General Sherman Tree, the largest tree on earth by volume, stands among many other giant sequoias, which grow only on the western slopes of the Sierra and can live for more than two thousand years. Moro Rock, a granite dome climbed by a stairway cut into its side, gives views across the Great Western Divide.
