This tour begins at your Jackson hotel when you meet your professional guide, before boarding a comfortable, air-conditioned coach for the drive to Grand Teton National Park. After just a 30-minute drive north, through the valley of Jackson Hole, you’ll arrive at this world-renowned national park just 10 miles (16km) south of Yellowstone.
As you approach Grand Teton National Park, the first thing you’ll notice are the jagged peaks of Wyoming’s Teton Range as they cut across the sky. Upon entering Grand Teton National Park (entrance fee not included), your first stop will be at the historic Chapel of the Transfiguration — a cabin built in 1925 that originally accommodated guests and staff from the handful of nearby dude ranches.
From here you’ll continue to Menor’s Ferry, an historic ferry service across the Snake River that’s run since the late 1800s. It’s here where you’ll also see Maud Noble’s Cabin, a homestead where your guide will explain the lives of Wyoming’s early settlers.
With a healthy dose of Wyoming history now under your belt, you can really start to experience the legendary beauty that makes the national park famous. Stroll down the shores of Jenny Lake with its crystal-clear, alpine waters, and hear the stories of pioneering mountain men who crossed and conquered the Tetons.
You’ll stop to eat at a comfortable lodge where you can choose from various lunch options (own expense), before venturing out to Jackson Lake to absorb the alpine scenery. While here, listen as your guide explains how the park has dozens of species of mammals, as well as 300 bird species, and 1,000 species of plants.
Before you return to your Jackson Hotel, you’ll stop at the Colter Bay Visitor Center, where you can casually peruse a vast array of American Indian artifacts. On the drive back through Jackson Hole, keep your eyes peeled around the Oxbow Bend where it’s common to spot moose or deer.

Our tour guide Mike was awesome. Knowledgeable, friendly and went out of his way to make our trip unforgettable. Saw tons of bison and an up close viewing of a huge mule dear. Lunch on Jackson lake was great!

The beauty of the Grand Tetons is magnificent, especially with a knowledgeable guide who knows where to take you for the best views. We had lunch looking out on Jackson Lake with the Tetons in the background.

When I booked tour; it said we would eat lunch at a restaurant in the tetons. We didn't. Since we were back at our hotel by 3:00 seems like there was plenty of time to do that.

This tour was incredible. The Grand Tetons are a special mountain range and to be able to see so many different aspects of them throughout this tour is special. Honestly, seeing the wildlife and the dramatic mountain range is incredible. The Tetons truly fire out of the ground, making for wonderful photos and memories.
The tour guide (I'm sorry I forgot your name) always went the extra mile, and his enthusiasm and charisma was appreciated. I believe his son is a photographer in the region.

Jesse O’Connor was an awesome guide (30 years of experience)! He made it fun and we covered a lot of sites.

Great extensive tour in a very nice vehicle. Driver was extremely knowledgeable and personable. The tour lasted the entire day and saw a Moose family, bear and Multiple eagles.

We enjoyed the views of the Grand Tetons. Our tour guide, Mike took us the road to the Mormon Row, Signal Mountain, Jenny Lake and Jackson Lake. We really enjoyed seeing the wildlife, bison, pronghorn along the Scharkabar (sp) road. He was very informative and personable guide. We were able to look through the scope that he had along to see some of the animals and landscape up close. He was patient as my sister and I couldn't walk too far without taking a break. It was a very enjoyable day.
