Top Jackson Attractions & Museums

Maximize your wildlife-spotting opportunities by getting off the road and onto the water on this 13-mile float trip down Jackson’s serene Snake River. Glide through the Snake River Range and Gros Ventre Range with views of the snow-capped Tetons. Look out for bald eagles, beavers, river otters, and maybe even moose and elk, while your guide introduces the area’s ecology and geology. Blankets are provided for cooler days and times.

The Snake River is an ideal location to see some of Wyoming’s beautiful flora and fauna—especially bald eagles, ospreys, and pelicans—near Grand Teton National Park. Rather than rush down the river on a whitewater or kayaking trip, float down a scenic 13-mile (21 kilometers) stretch of the river on an easygoing raft. Plus, get round-trip transportation from the outfitter's office in Jackson.

Hop on the Jackson Hole Aerial Tram and head up 4,139 vertical feet ( 1,261.5 meters) to the summit of Rendezvous Mountain for scenic views of the Tetons, hiking trails, and Corbet's Cabin—well-known for their delicious waffles. Make the most of access to the Bridger Gondola and the Sweetwater Gondola (included in your ticket during peak season), and don't forget to take a photo or two.

Head to Yellowstone National Park on a day trip from Jackson Hole for the chance to see the highlights of one of the most popular parks in the United States. With a guide, you'll explore the lower loop of the park to see attractions such as Yellowstone Lake, Old Faithful, Fountain Paint Pots, and the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, plus check out a few off-the-beaten-path locations. Lunch is included. This tour operator is an authorized permittee of the National Park Service.
