At Austin-Lehman Adventures, our guests are our best ambassadors. Here's an excerpt from one traveler's journal about his Yosemite family vacation:"This was our first father/daughter vacation and it was perfect. Erin truly was sad on the last day to have it end."

California: Yosemite Family - Domes, Rivers & Waterfalls
With 1,600 miles of streams, countless lakes and over 800 miles of hiking trails, Yosemite is the ultimate family escape
Your daughter gazes skyward in amazement at the "Grizzly Giant," Yosemite National Park's ~2,000-year-old Sequoia tree. It's not until you've been in her shoes, standing at the foot of a colossal 90-foot wide and 200-foot tall trunk, that you've truly experienced the enormity of Yosemite's Giant Sequoias.
Welcome to your Yosemite National Park Family Adventure. Hike forest trails, climb granite domes and feel the mist of thundering waterfalls against your cheeks. Learn the basics of rock climbing with the help of our professional instructors. Discover how Yosemite Valley was formed and how many kids it takes, hand in hand, to circle the Telescope Tree. Top off your day in the tranquility of the Mariposa Sequoia Groves on Mawona Point with a slice homemade chocolate cake and a dollop of sugary-sweet whipped cream before returning to the comforts of the Tenaya Lodge, your 4-Diamond resort and spa.

A few more reasons why you've gotta go...
- The Yosemite Firefall: learn the history of an 88-year-old tradition deemed so dangerous that it was discontinued in 1968.
- Taft Point: jutting 1,500 feet over the valley, you can't beat the view from the Point.
- The trees! It took 15 Austin-Lehman guests, hand in hand, to barely encircle one Giant Sequoia.
- The rock climbing: after a 60-foot rappel down the base of El Capitan, you and your kids both will have a new perspective on what you can accomplish.
