We enjoyed 3 days of semi-private tours with Authentic Adventures in April. Alexis is a terrific guide - knows the area, points out interesting sights, shares facts and fun stories. She makes the effort for her individual guests and is a really enjoyable person to be around. Of course, you go to the national parks to see the parks! And they did not disappoint! We had a good itinerary, adapted to the weather conditions to make sure we got the most of our time in the parks. I would definitely tour with Authentic Adventures again.

Highly recommended to spend a day in any of the Central California National Parks. She is knowledgeable and caring while ensuring your safety at all times. Provided the best recommendations in terms of food, drinks and things to do in the Fresno Area. Offered to take pictures as I was traveling solo during the excursion. You can tell she is an extremely professional yet passionate of what she does. Truly enjoyed my experience!

The private tour that Alexis gave of Yosemite National Park with a group of coworkers and I was the highlight of my trip! She took us to all of the popular and most stunning places. During the van ride and on the trails, she was providing history, fun facts and had extensive knowledge of the park. We enjoyed lunch together and felt like she was part of the group and a friend. I was sad when the journey was over! She was extremely friendly and I would recommend her to anybody.
