About Extranomical Tours

Definition: ex·tra·nom·i·cal /ˌikˈstranämikəl-/ adjective extranomical 1. awesome, greater than expected or remarkable value. "the extranomical tour was one of the best days of my life!" Synonyms: extraordinary, astronomical, amazing Extranomical Tours, founded in 2002, is a San Francisco sightseeing tour company that specializes in tours for people who generally do not like to take tours. Our clientele is very independent and likes to venture to places where most tour companies don't go to. Due to the small size of our groups, our guests receive a more personalized and exclusive experience from us. Our tours offer a distinct "traveling with friends" feel, so that most people interact with each other and so we are able to visit locations larger vehicles do not. For example, we have a short hike up to the Giant Sequoia grove on our one day Yosemite tour from San Francisco. On our California wine country tours, we visit small family-owned boutique wineries (too small for large buses) that produce such limited quantities you can only buy their wine at their winery! We are fully insured and licensed by the State of California Public Utilities Commission and are regulated and inspected annually by the California Highway Patrol. We are proud members in good standing at the San Francisco Travel Association. All of our drivers are drug tested at the time of hire as well as at random times throughout the year. We make sure that our vehicles are always in excellent mechanical condition by inspecting daily and keeping a rigid maintenance schedule. We train all of our guides one-on-one to make sure that they are knowledgeable, courteous, and most of all, safe. All of our guides are also friendly, informative, and experienced. We test drivers on a periodical basis on their knowledge of the areas we visit. We also maintain a training program and a resource library for guides to stay current on relevant material. We carefully select the locations we explore on our tours to maximize your time and see the best of the best, while always maintaining an adventurous yet easy-going atmosphere. On our tours we have a comfortable amount of time where you are with the group, but we also give you enough time on your own so you can choose from different activities that interest you such as hiking, shopping, museums, or just taking in the beauty. We know you work hard all year long to take a vacation so we make sure to do everything in our power to make your tour a memory that you'll treasure for a lifetime! Happy travels, Extranomical Tours.

Booked an overnight Yosemite tour Booked an overnight Yosemite tour. We were placed with two different companies for the journey there and back. On the way there we weren't given much info on activities, we missed the sequoia forest though that wasn't clear if it was due to weather or not offered on the other tour. There was miscommunication on the meet up time and place on the way back which was very stressful. Honestly it ruined the day, but we had a lovely time in Yosemite before that.

Gino’s tours are the best! Yosemite was a bucket list adventure of dreams. Not only is the place an absolute work of art but our tour guide Gino gave us nothing but insight and laughter the whole day. Gino was an exceptional tour guide and gave us the very best experience a first time Yosemite visitor could ever ask for! I wish he had a way of taking an electronic tip as he deserved the all the tips and more! Would absolutely recommend to anyone wanting to go and would book again in a heartbeat.

2 tours with Extranominical gone wrong We booked x 2 tours with Extranominical and both we poorly organised. The first was meant to be the small group tour to Napa Valley and we were advised 24hr prior they didnt have enough people so we had to attend a different tour with larger numbers and less reserve wineries.The second tour was too Yosemeti and after being picked up at 5:50am we were delayed by1hr because the bus didnt have enough seats for all attendees and the aircon was leaking meaning someone couldnt sit in the front seat.

Kimmy made our day excursion so… Kimmy made our day excursion so wonderful. We saw the redwoods, enjoyed the vineyards and lunch, along with the Golden Gate Bridge. Would 10/10 recommend both the company and Kimmy.

Good experience Good experience. We were picked up at Hilton Union Square at 6 AM. The trip is ideal for someone who wishes to visit Yosemite but does not have the time to stay over. Through the tour the guide (In our case David) takes you to various photo points/breath taking locations. Post that, one goes on the Giant Sequoia trail (it's a slightly uphill walk back - but should be fine even for those with moderate health) David our guide was wonderful, keeping us all engaged throughout the tour. He makes sure to guide through the tour, accompanying us on the Giant Sequoia walk. He even put on a movie on the way back showcasing a climber on the El Capitan at Yosemite. Truly cares about the customer's experience. Overall, this trip is for you if you are short on time/want a quick visit to Yosemite. However, in case you are looking to explore at a more leisurely pace would suggest you make the journey on your own.
