My husband had a great time and caught a ton of fish with Luke. Unfortunately my son and I were left behind for long periods of time. Luke brought one pole though we all though we would be able to fish. I never got a chance to be taught or fish; I just had to try and keep up in the slippery river. Luke instructed us to not bring any personal items to the river as we would be back to the car shortly. We left behind food, water, phones and emergency/first aid gear. We never returned to the car during our 4 hour trip but Luke forgot to tell us that. At one point my son and I were left behind since he was feeling dizzy and lightheaded due to the altitude. They continued on without us and we sat alone in the river for about an hour having no idea where they were or where we were. I am sure this is a great experience for solo adults but I would not recommend for a safe and enjoyable family outing. Luke mentioned he was a realtor for his primary employment and was just doing this on the side; I was not surprised to hear this at the end of our trip. I also reached out to Jimmy about the safety concerns and was sent a video to "prove me wrong". They then asked to speak with my husband instead of me. I would recommend finding a different company for your family's once in a life time outing.

Literally went from the valley floor to the peak of sentinel dome. His knowledge of the park is outstanding.

He even apologized for the clouds! An all day adventure; we were happily exhausted when we got back to Evergreen Lodge. Highly recommend.

My family was in the middle of a five-day stay in Yosemite, and we desperately needed a break from…read morethe over-chlorinated hotel pool, the stuffy room, and the miles and miles and miles of hiking--which, with a five-, six-, and 11-year-old, doesn't exactly scream "happy family vacation." So we rented a boat on Bass Lake, and man, it was awesome. The crew was extremely friendly and accommodating, and the boat itself--a medium pontoon with an inner tube--was great. The shop didn't offer much in the way of actual provisions for the boat ride, unless your idea of lunch is chips, Doritos, donuts, and 75 varieties of soda. Basically, everything you need to give three children a four-hour sugar high in the middle of a lake. I would have loved some sandwiches, fruit, or anything that didn't have a cartoon mascot on the package. The price is where the missing star went. You're looking at around $500 for the boat and inner tube for four hours, and then you have to pay for the gas on top of that. Maybe that's standard practice, but it felt like a lot for four hours. For the whole day? Sure. But four hours? My bank account is still kicking me in the balls. That said, Bass Lake was unbelievably nice to swim in, and diving off the boat in the middle of that gorgeous lake was incredible for the kids. The inner tube was the undisputed highlight. We went zipping around the lake like a bunch of deranged dragonflies, and the kids absolutely crushed it. They never wanted to get off. The smiles on their faces ultimately made the price worth it, and we all wished we could have stayed out there the entire day. Four stars and highly recommended--especially if budget isn't a concern.

We were told they were not renting jet skis that day. That immediately didn't make sense. Before arriving, I had checked the website, which showed availability. We didn't argue or make a scene we simply accepted what we were told and booked for the following day. The interaction continued to bother me, so later that evening I called anonymously and asked whether they were renting jet skis that day. This time, I was told yes. So why were we told, face-to-face, that they weren't renting jet skis that day? As a Black customer, it's difficult not to question whether race played a role. I can't know what motivated the employee, but being told "no" in person, then receiving the opposite answer over the phone later that same day, while also seeing non-Black customers renting jet skis, left me feeling singled out. Whether this was poor customer service, dishonesty, or something more, it left a lasting impression. I hope no one else has the same experience.

Padded, forward facing seating and a private guide make it worth it. The price point is worth it when you consider dinner & dessert , beverages (including beer/wine), plus the train experience and campfire singers at the stop. We had an amazing 4 hours (5:30-9:30pm). Pre-dinner we strolled the grounds, gift shops & museums and watched some folks pan for gold. Dinner at 6:30 and then you're off by 7:15pm. The train ride and history lesson aboard the train plus a lively sing along at the campfire stop take you through to 9:30 return to the depot. Highly recommend!

Overall, it was a cool experience, but in my opinion, it was a bit overpriced. I'm glad we tried it, but I honestly feel like I could have passed. Definitely a one time and done experience for me.

We had our annual camping trip at one of the local campsites near Miller's Landing resort. One of our days we decided to use our 15% off coupon from our campsite to Rent a 9 persons pontoon boat. The folks working at the counter for the boat rental were friendly and helpful. I wish I could say the same thing for the dude's working at the actual boat dock. They gave us weird vibes. Like, have y'all never seen Asians renting a boat? WTF are you guys glaring at? WTF is so funny? It was irritating AF! Thankfully, the time on the water was really fun! The kids had such a good time zipping around on the water and we also rented a tube that we towed off the back of the pontoon boat. Yes, it's not a speed boat, but it was fast enough for the kids to enjoy being towed around. The next day we went back to Miller's Landing to use their public showers. Five dollars for five minutes. Make it quick! The shower's were clean, water was warm, or cold if you prefer, but the line can get long. There is no complimentary shampoo, soap, or conditioner, so be sure to BYO. It was a good option for those of us who were tent camping that NEEDED a shower. Although we didn't dine in the restaurant, we did get drinks, ice cream, and milkshake's from the café, all of which were really tasty. We will definitely plan to incorporate a boat rental, showers, and meals at Miller's Landing when we plan our annual camping trip for next year!
