Here's a browser for the actual tree: https://tree.opentreeoflife.org https://tree.opentreeoflife.org. It is a little slow to load right now, as this has been posted to Reddit recently.
For those of you, like me, who may not be very familiar with modern phylogeny and taxonomy, here's the path I charted down to "Homo Sapiens".
Check out under Eukaryota (which includes plants, animals, fungi, and a bunch of single celled organisms), then Opisthokonta. Under that you'll find Nucletmycea, which contains Fungi, finally getting down to a more familiar classification. Another branch under Opisthokonta is Holozoa, which you can then trace down to "Choanomonada + Metazoa", down to "Metazoa", which Wikipedia tells me is another name for "Animalia" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metazoa https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metazoa). You can trace down under there to Bilateria (via a few nodes with multiple groups, I've elided those nodes from now on), to Deuterostomia, to Chordata, Craniata, Verbrata, Gnathostomata, Teleostomi, Euteleostomi, Sarcopterygii, Dipnotetrapodomorpha, Tetrapoda, Amniota, Mammalia, Theria, Eutheria, Euarchontoglires, Primates, Haplorrhini, Simiiformes, Catarrhini, Hominoidea, Hominidae, Homininae, Homo, and finally Homo Sapiens.
