Our half day trip was amazing. Jo, our guide was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about Tetons and its ecosystem. The trip was well balanced: we were able to enjoy magnificent views of mountains and lakes and even see bizons. Many thanks Irina and Vlad

The half day Grand Teton tour was spectacular! David our tour guide was so knowledgeable about the history of the area and science behind the ecosystem. The binoculars and scope provided allowed us to see wild bison, beautiful birds, and stunning features of the mountains. If you’re coming to Jackson Hole I highly recommend this tour. My husband and I truly loved this experience.

Shane did a great job showing us around. We happened to see several moose right up close which was the highlight of the day.

JOHN_C, Jul 2026
Sites were awesome but guide was a little monotone. Also was asked what we wanted to see?? I replied, “I’m here for a tour. Show me it all.” How can you ask someone who’s visiting a place they’ve never seen as to what they would like to see? Too much monologue on his personal life and not enough on Teton.

This was an awesome tour....

Great Grand Teton experience

Rebecca_C, Jul 2026
The tour was wonderful. Dan picked us up from our hotel and along with three other guests we toured the Grand Tetons. Dan was knowledgeable about locations in the park, geological aspects of the mountains and of the wildlife and their habits and locations. It was a great opportunity to have someone to drive us so we didn’t have to worry about parking and where to stop. It was thoroughly enjoyable.

Perfect half day Teton tour

Ashley_R, Jul 2026
Our tour was phenomenal. Dan was an incredible guide, and we learned so much of the history and geography of the area. I wish we’d taken it on our first full day so we had a better understanding of the Tetons. The van was comfortable. We made just the right amount of stops, and we were fortunate enough to see elk, bison, and a moose on our trip. The detail we could see through the scope was an awesome extra touch too. I will absolutely book with this company again!

Tetons with David

Harriet_T, Jul 2026
David was a wonderful tour guide, not only were were you able to see tons of annual life? He was very knowledgeable about the history of the park and about the geology of how the mountains and land was formed.

Felt like I was in a National Geographic!

Crystal_K, Jul 2026
This was amazing!!! Saw pronghorns and a coyote run right up to them, saw Bison fighting and all the scenic spots. Well worth it the money. The Guide was so informative and even took pics since I was traveling alone. Awesome!!

Our Grand Teton tour with...

Diane_C, Jul 2026
Our Grand Teton tour with Shane was the highlight of our trip! He is incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the park. He took us to breathtaking locations while skillfully avoiding the crowds, making the experience feel personal and relaxed. Shane’s stories and local insights were both entertaining and informative, and he truly went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a memorable day. The door-to-door service was an added convenience, and to top it all off, we even saw a moose! If you’re looking for an exceptional Grand Teton tour, I highly recommend booking with Shane. It was an unforgettable experience!

Best day ever

Jessica_S, Jul 2026
Andy, our tour guide, was so knowledgeable and congenial! We learned so much, he could answer any question, stayed perfectly on schedule even though we were running behind. Perfectly on time to pick us up! You get to stop about half way through to a flush bathroom at Jackson lake marina lodge. Great excursion for older people or those with movement restrictions. He was able to record videos and take pictures through his sight seeing scope and made sure they were sent to our phones at the end. Couldn’t have made it any easier! The company is perfect at communicating before hand about pickup and confirming.

Highly recommended

Alejandro_G, Jul 2026
Highly recommended, you visit the park's most important locations in one day and get to see quite a variety of animals. Also, our guide Luke did a great job of providing information and entertainment during the trip.

A comprehensive tour for first time visitors. Thank you, DAN!

Loretta_W, Jun 2026
Guide DAN had a passion for Jackson that was contagious. He shared his extensive knowledge in an interesting and entertaining manner. DAN provided history, facts, humor, and personal stories that contributed to a fun excursion. We did a 2.5 hour circle loop in a comfortable van, stopped at main sites and spotted various wildlife. DAN patiently answered all questions. It was a fun and educational experience. Book this tour! Thank you, DAN!

Great tour with tour guide Shane!

Danielle_W, Jun 2026
We had the best time on our tour today. Our guide was Shane and he was fantastic. He was authentic, knowledgeable and entertaining. Our family and the other 2 families on the tour with us all had the best time. Shane was so funny and had the best stories. We saw some deer, elk, a moose, and some pronghorn. We learned a lot about the local area, the mountains, all of the wildlife, the rivers, he was knowledgeable about different hikes and trails, and he gave us historical facts about the Tetons. Shane was great at finding wildlife, patient, kind, very entertaining, and very knowledgeable. We could not have had a better guide. He was hands down the best guide we could have had. We are so glad we were in his group. This family from TN had a blast and will be talking about this trip for a long time. Shane thanks for a great trip and being so passionate about what tou do. You're amazing!

We did a 4 hr. Grand Teton Tour with John P as our guide and it was excellent. John was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic throughout the tour. He went above and beyond at every stop. We took several tours on this vacation and John was by far the best tour guide we had hands-down.

A Day in Teton

Luke Boyette Is one of the most experienced and knowledgeable person I have ever met. He took us to places and showed us wildlife that were on my bucket list. At the beginning of our excursion he asked us what we would like to see and delivered. I hope to hook up with him in Yellowstone for another excursion. A#1 in my book.

Great day in the Tetons!

Kari_N, Jun 2026
We had a great 1/2 day tour of the Tetons with Shane! He was personable, informative & had a great sense of humor!
