    20 minutes

  • Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

    At a depth of more than 1000ft (305m), the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River is an impressive sight.

    45 minutes

Your guide will educate you on the historical or geological significance of your stop.

    45 minutes

    The first photographic depictions of the Lower Falls were made in 1871 during the Hayden Expedition, although Native American tribes have known about the falls for centuries.

Breathe taking.

Published on Oct, 2024

Gary was our tour guide. Very knowledge and easy to be around. The spots we went to was visually stunning. Old faithful, the hot spots and the best for me was the yellow stone canyon. The whole experience was awesome no complaints

The ONLY way to see Yellowstone!

Published on Oct, 2024

We had the best day with Elena in Yellowstone. She was so incredibly knowledgeable about the park on everything from the history to the animals that are local to the park. We drank coffee from our heated seats, saw bear, coyote, bison, elk, AND bald eagles, and got out to adventure around several thermal features - everything was so seamlessly done. If you are thinking about driving through Yellowstone yourself - think again!

Amazing experience!

Published on Oct, 2024

Our full day best of Yellowstone tour was amazing. We met our wonderful tour guide Rae in Big Sky at 6:45am and drove to Yellowstone. Rae is extremely knowledgeable and charismatic. You can tell she enjoys what she does and loves the area. We saw so many beautiful sites, a lot of the Yellowstone “highlights” and wildlife. I feel like a don’t had adequate words! Rae had plenty of snacks and beverages and had packed yummy box lunches. We had limited time in Montana and this excursion fit into our itinerary perfectly. I would definitely recommend!

Our Guide was AWESOME

Published on Sep, 2024

The trip was awesome! The knowledge of our guide I loved cause we love history. She delivered on everything the van wished for on the trip. Her attention to detail to make sure we got to see everything with the best light even with the heavy fog. I would highly recommend her, and we will be back for sure.

Great experience.

Elena was very knowledgeable of the area which made the day special. Knowing how much time it takes to get through everything made it possible to see what we wanted to see within the time allotted. We also got to see a family of otters which was a plus.
