Just lovely - We had the pleasure of hanging out with Zeke on our first day in Yosemite. We couldn't have picked a better plan. We hiked up the Mist Trail. Zeke was wonderfully flexible to with times (our teenagers weren't up for any 8am type tour). He made the hike relaxing and do-able. I honestly don't know if I would have pushed myself the the last 10% of the trek to the top of the falls without him. He brought the park to life and provided us with tidbits that helped us enjoy the awesome nature of the park. Well worth every penny (and then some).

Not just a tour, an engaging story - Zeke did an amazing job and turned an already great trip to Yosemite even better! Not only is he charismatic and funny, he is also a great storyteller and helped me see nature in a new light. He discussed everything from the plants, animals, geology, and history, and he helped show how everything is connected and how nothing in nature was designed by accident. He took great care to come up with creative methods for visitor engagement, such as guessing games, animations, hand-held samples, and character role-playing. It was so much more than simple fact-spewing I feel like most tours might do. This was a living, breathing story. This tour really helped me appreciate nature and the journey it took to make yosemite a national park amidst the dangers of human greed. Big shout out to Zeke who was super kind, knowledgeable, and just a genuine human being

We loved this family hike - I was debating taking my family on a guided hike and I’m so glad I did. Our guide had so many interesting facts and stories to share that we never would have heard otherwise. He had fun activities for the kids which I was very grateful for. We hiked to some incredible views of the park and it made our experience so much better than if we had done it alone.

Zeke was a very enjoyable tour guide. - This was my first time to Yosemite, so selecting to join a tour with other family members, was the most logical way to go. Our guide, Zeke, was very entertaining with a quick wit and great sense of humor. He is very knowledgeable and we enjoyed learning new things and interacting with him. He also enjoyed it when we shared an additional tip. We're very interested in going back in the spring. We will definitely request Zeke as our guide. I highly recommend you spend some time with him.
