Overview

This small-group tour is a fantastic way to observe wildlife as well as take in Grand Teton's beauty and Yellowstone’s geyser basins.

We will be making stops at Old Faithful Geyser and Basin, Yellowstone Lake, Hayden Valley, Fountain Paint Pots or Black Sands (decision based on guide discretion), the Lower Falls of the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. The park’s rich history, geology, wildfires and wildlife will be discussed in detail throughout the tour.

Wildlife that is often observed on tour are bison, grizzly bears, black bears, wolves, moose, elk, eagles, mule deer, pronghorn, and coyotes.

We will offer many stops throughout the tour for guests to get out of the vehicle and observe wildlife with the binoculars and scope that we provide, and to walk the various boardwalks we stop at.

This tour will include a picnic style lunch that will be served by your guide.

Lower Yellowstone River Falls

Lower Falls, the biggest waterfall in Yellowstone at 308-feet tall, is the most famous waterfall in the park. The canyon’s colors were created by hot water acting on volcanic rock. It was not these colors, but the river’s yellow banks at its distant confluence with the Missouri River, that occasioned the Minnetaree Indian name which French trappers translated as roche jaune, yellow stone. The canyon has been rapidly downcut more than once, perhaps by great glacial outburst floods.
