The whole nine yarts?…read more I connect to here using Amtrak or Greyhound (usually the latter) at "The Bus", and these local buses will take you to the park or anywhere in the greater Merced area, so it's a great service for those that come to Yosemite without cars, which is a bad idea if you ask me, but this eases the annoyance for sure. You can catch these all over town (like colds, or corona), and you can get into town initially using trains or dog buses. Merced Transportation Center is where you'll catch the Greyhound buses in Merced. It's known as "The Bus", not really sure why. It used to be a Southern Pacific Railway Station for Greyhound getting to Sacramento, to the Bay Area and Los Angeles. And also you can get to Yosemite from here. It's in the heart of Merced and is small and does a good service for the buses and the trains. Right by the little old Spanish looking house, which is very Cali, so it works perfectly.

Amtrak Trains: 2025 Jul 7 (4 of 5)…read more I love train rides! Somehow, trains feel comforting to me. Train rides are usually smooth, with variations of vibrations and some swaying. Train-rides offer the ability to stretch my legs. A ride on Amtrak can be an adventure because you don't know whether they will arrive on time. Because of that, strangers become friends or in the least new acquaintances. You sigh - and chat - and wonder when the train will arrive. Yes! Amtrak is usually late, but once inside, you'll appreciate why you decide to take the train. The seats are comfortable and clean. There is a lounge but sometimes they offer complimentary snacks and water. These trains also have a toilet for your convenience. Other than Amtrak being usually late, the cleanliness and smooth ride makes this a high 4.

First off, love its acronym lol (YARTS)…read more Pretty nifty service if you don't want to drive all the way to Yosemite National Park; there's a bit of winding-road areas against mountain edges when heading to the park. Bus fare includes park admission. There are multiple bus routes but some are seasonal. What I did is dropped my car at the Mariposa Park & Ride lot, which is a 45 min easy highway drive from Merced, then hopped on the bus and about 2 hours later reached Yosemite. Yes, taking the bus is slower than taking your own car (surprise surprise lol) so I advise to take the bus sometime in the morning (I took the first bus heading to Yosemite and that bus left the park & ride lot at around 6 am). Smooth bus ride (I easily fell asleep on the bus, to and from, lol). Bus is clean and has large windows so you can easily take photos on the way to the park. Bus drivers, to and from, were both very friendly. Besides the relatively long transportation time, the other downside I can think of when using YARTS is that you won't be able to access certain landmarks in Yosemite Valley (Bridalveil Fall, Tunnel View, etc.) that you would otherwise be able to if you brought your car with you. If those places aren't on your itinerary, I definitely recommend taking YARTS!
