Top Activities on the Ground in Big Sky

Go beyond the crowds and follow a wildlife biologist/ecologist into the true wilds of Yellowstone. Visiting the Lamar Valley—the “Serengeti of Yellowstone”—and beyond, you’ll spy on bison, wolves, bears, coyotes, and more, all between witnessing geysers erupt and waterfalls cascade. Stop for a picnic lunch and take an easy hike or two for a bit more scenic exploration before ending your private, documentary-worthy adventure.

Avoid crowds and maximize your wildlife-viewing experience on this private Yellowstone tour led by a naturalist guide. Journey through Yellowstone National Park with hotel pickup while making frequent stops for wildlife encounters as well as scenic and secluded hikes to some of Yellowstone's best destinations and lesser-known geysers and hot springs off the beaten path.

Ideal for travelers with limited time in the region, this private, full-day excursion lets you skip the time-consuming group tours and see more of Yellowstone than you could alone—and not have to worry about traffic and parking. Choose between areas of the park, visiting geysers, canyons, and taking short hikes at your own pace (all with your own guide). Explore the famous landmarks or skip them entirely, as the day is up to you.

Direct from Bozeman — Save nearly 10 hours of driving vs. Salt Lake City. Explore Yellowstone and Teton National Parks on a 2-day adventure. Immerse yourself in the landscape and wildlife at iconic stops. Abundant historical and cultural heritage sites await your discovery. ********************************************************************** Seasonal Notice: Yellowstone is best visited June–September. In May and after October, some areas may close due to snow, weather, wildlife activity, or park regulations (including but not limited to Yellowstone Lake, Artist Point, Midway Geyser Basin, Lamar Valley, Mammoth Hot Springs, Jackson Lake, and Oxbow Bend). Closures, park capacity limits, or road restrictions beyond our control may require itinerary adjustments. Alternative stops will be arranged when possible; however, seasonal or regulatory changes do not qualify for refunds.
