Q&A

Q: What’s the age limit for kids on this tour? My son is 10 and loves hiking!

A: There’s no strict age limit, but it’s recommended for kids ages 10 and up, especially for the hiking parts. The 4-Mile Hike can be strenuous, so just make sure your son is up for it. The tour is pretty family-friendly overall, and a lot of kids his age have gone and loved it!

Q: Is it easy to reschedule if something comes up? I want to gift it but can't find the right date yet.

A: Yes, they’re pretty flexible about rescheduling. Just give them a call a few days ahead of your booked date, and they can help you find a new date that works. Just be aware that if you wait until the last minute, options might be limited!

Q: What should we wear for the hike? Is it super cold or hot in Yosemite in spring?

A: In spring, it can really vary. Layers are best! Mornings can be chilly and by afternoon it warms up. I recommend wearing moisture-wicking fabric and a light jacket. And definitely sturdy hiking shoes! You’ll love the views at Glacier Point!

I’m looking into this 2-day trip from San Francisco for my partner’s birthday! The whole Amtrak part sounds awesome, plus the hike in Yosemite is a huge bonus. Has anyone done the 4-Mile Hike? How hard is it? I want to make sure they're prepared.

Anyone got tips for the Yosemite and Glacier Point tour?
