Planning a trip to Yosemite National Park that is a success and builds great memories is not as easy as you might believe. After all, not everyone gets the best prices, packages, and destinations, right? It pays to know how to wade through the glut of guidebooks and to put together the best vacation--for you.
Choose a guidebook or Web site that shares your travel philosophy, style and budget to help you plan your getaway. Start by looking up activities and sights that you want to see and do while at Yosemite. Next, check out lodging near the places of interest to you. Making lodging and activity plans near each other will save you time and gas.
Think outside of the box--and into the car, the train, even the bus. If you want to see the countryside, a train can get you there at a leisurely pace in a seat with a view. Trains do not only get you where you want to go but trains are also romantic.
Look up area events, celebrations and holidays that occur at Yosemite Park during your stay. The advantage to knowing what is going on is that if you want to go you will know when to be there, and if you do not want to go you will also be able to plan your vacation when there might be less congestion after or before the event.
Book your lodging at the park ranging from historic hotels and lodges to rustic cabins. Stay in the heart of all the beauty at one of these Premier Lodges and Hotels: Tenaya Lodge & Cottages, The Ahwahnee and the Wawona Hotel.
