What To Expect

Start the day with an early morning pickup from your Jackson Hole hotel. You’ll drive for two hours in an air conditioned coach as you travel from Jackson to Yellowstone, admiring the sweeping, mountainous views of Grand Teton National Park. Upon entering Yellowstone National Park, you’ll visit the Lower Loop’s main attractions — including Old Faithful geyser. Gaze in wonder at Lewis Canyon as well as Lewis Lake.

You’ll next be transported towards Firehole River, which is home to the multi-hued, endlessly fascinating, colorful Fountain Paint Pot. Comprised of yellows, browns, and reds that are caused by iron in the mud, the Fountain Paint Pot, as your guide will explain, is one of Yellowstone’s naturally occurring geologic wonders. 

Next, drive through the steam filled Geyser Basin towards the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone — a 20-mile (32-km) cleft in the earth that’s home to Yellowstone Falls. Watch as the water flows peacefully through the canyon before plunging over the falls, which is not only one of America’s tallest, but also one of its most famous. 

Continue the drive through the rolling grasslands of bison filled Hayden Valley, where in addition to herds of powerful bison exploring the open terrain, there’s even the chance you could spot a wolf as it prowls the windswept grass. 

Finally, your Yellowstone tour from Jackson Hole concludes at the Lake Hotel — a historic spot with a view gazing out over massive Yellowstone Lake. On the comfortable drive back to Jackson Hole, you can scroll through your camera and relive the beauty of America’s first national park, or stare out the window as the sun sinks low over Grand Teton National Park.

Breathtaking views with a terrific guide all highlighted in one day. It was a day to appreciate nature's beauty firsthand and learn the history and geology of Yellowstone. Definitely recommend to all who have limited time to see these wonders of nature. Jesse was extremely knowledgeable of the history and geology of the park and added his own personal experiences which was invaluable.

Amazing experience! A true wildlife and nature wonderland. Everyone should make this trip at least once in their life.
Incompetent and flirtatious driver Bob at Yellowstone : a total disgrace
rajivmal57, Oct 2021
We booked the Yellowstone Park tour with pick up from our downtown Jackson Hole hotel. We were the first to be picked up by the driver/guide Bob and we then proceeded to other hotels to pick up remaining guests fir this small group tour. Normally once all guests have been picked up the formal part of the tour begins with the guide introducing himself, asking all others where they are from and providing a preview of the day. But with Bob we had total silence - I mean not a single word for about half an hour. Then when the wife of a couple behind us complained that she could not see much from the back, he proceeded to invite her to sit with him in the front. Still nothing about the tour. It seemed we had booked a chauffeur not a tour guide. But actually not only was he incompetent but apparently also more interested in flirting with the wife to the helpless chagrin of her elderly husband. When I specifically asked him if we were gong to get some kind of narration he stated bluntly that if we wanted a narrated tour we had picked the wrong driver. Clearly this guy just did not get care. Throughout the tour we literally had to beg him to stop at key overlooks for example along the Snake River. He did of course make the mandatory stops at Old Faithful and Grand Prismatic, where walking back to the bus he was so animated flirting with the wife of the octogenarian customer that he actually tripped on a stone and slipped and fell!! But of course it did not change his attitude - only the conversation with the object of his vacuous desire turned to health issues, Covid, vaccinations, his own pregnant daughter coming to visit with the wife chipping in with her own stories about her truck driver son and his adventure tires. At one stop Bob flirted with a young single girl while taking her picture asking if she was single. This guy is disgusting and a shame to the community of tour guides in the country. Ultimately Yellowstone prevailed in that even this useless driver could not ruin the natural splendor of the park and it’s gorgeous and breathtaking beauty.
A great experience

Yellowstone is beautiful and Bob was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable and was very nice. It was a great experience. Thanks Bob!! Great time!!
Good but not great
Brenda_L, Aug 2021
The tour guide was very pleasant but I feel we did not get all that we could and should have out of our tour. He would tell us an attraction was coming up in 5 miles but as soon as we got there he forget to point it out, We made only five stops. And the last couple hours of the tour he sat up front and talked with the driver.
Breathtaking
maureen_s, Aug 2021
My twin sister and I booked this tour not knowing what to expect. We were BLOWN AWAY with our experience. Our guide, Mr. Jesse, went above and beyond assuring us we would have a breathtaking adventure - and he was spot on. He was full of the most amazing information and history of the park. Would MOST DEFINITELY RECOMMEND.

The most memorable part of the trip was my guide Vicky and driver James. So much knowledge and passion for these Natural forests. Vicky was also flexible with changing up some of the stops based on the needs of the group. This tour was well worth the money.
Informative and fun!
Erin_K, Jul 2021
What a wonderful day! We had Vicky and Steven as our guides and they had this down to a science! So much information that was engaging and helpful in understanding life at Grand Teton and Yellowstone. It is a long tour but well worth it. And we got to meet some really cool people along the ride.
Must see trip

It was all gorgeous. However, as we headed back to Jackson, we were fortunate and got to see #399 and her Cubs.

Tour was fantastic. We had a great group to travel with. The scenic views were wonderful and the wildlife amazing!!! Vikki and LeAnn were awesome as guides. They made us feel welcome and strived to make our experience memorable. I truly believe God brings people across our paths for a reason. I feel blessed that they crossed ours. I highly recommend this tour!!!

Absolutely loved our tour of Yellowstone! Amazing guide and driver, saw so many beautiful sites and learned a lot! Perfect way to experience the park if time is limited. Thank you for a fabulous day in Yellowstone!
fantastic tour and director
Fran_I, Jul 2021
Very Very knowledgeable and spoke so. all could understand. I had no idea of the geological origin of the area and learned a LOT. He was very willing to answer questions and I had lots: ie. Is the coal of Wyo high or low sulfur, what percentage of energy does Wyo use from the state's wind turbines? The Pick up from the hotel was a definite plus. This employee is a valuable keeper
