Sherry was terrific! A walking encyclopedia of facts. We saw lots of different animals, she gave us a great hint on where to sit to watch Old Faithful, we had snacks and water on the bus and she even had some rain ponchos!

Fantastic experience. Tour guide Phoebe was knowledgeable and led us to all of the highlights of the park. Was very accommodating to all. The open air bus was a nice touch but when its cold its better for the top to stay on. Tour lasted 9 hours but the last hour is just driving back to the origin point.

Great way to see the park for a first time visitor.

Barbara_B, Jul 2026
Bus was comfortable and easy to get off and on. The driver took good care of us and gave very interesting information as we went through the park. Some of the guests were rude and did not seem to have come to see the park but sat on the bus and complained that it was hot and they were ready to go. I guess it is the world we live in.

The only way to do Yellowstone

Paula_B, Jul 2026
From the meeting spot to begin the trip to the drop off this was a five star tour. No worries about driving through the busy park, no worries about parking and our driver and guide was delightful. Dave was witty, knowledgeable knew all of the gems of Yellowstone to take us too. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Perfect Day in Yellowstone

ljpfl, Jul 2026
Traveling through the park with an experienced guide takes the guesswork out of what to see, gets you there quickly and, best of all, someone else does all the driving!

A day driving through Yellowstone

Rafael_M, Jul 2026
Ken, was the solo driver and tour guide. He told great historical stories as we as current events. He was also a safe driver with snacks for all.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Glad to hear you enjoyed your tour with us. Ken is great.

Yay for Yellowstone!

maureen_c, Jul 2026
Very well organized. Our tour guide, Mike, was great. Very knowledgeable, friendly & considerate. Took care of all our needs & made sure we were always informed, comfortable & safe. The other people on this tour were very friendly, too, which made the trip even better. Weather was perfect & we all got to see so much. All in all, an excellent trip & one of the best tours I've ever been on. Thanks, Mike!

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you glad everything went well.

A superb tour of Yellowstone National Park!

Inger_H, Jul 2026
My family and I toured the lower loop of Yellowstone National Park with Cody Wyoming adventures, and I happily give them five stars out of five for their superior knowledge of the park and very warm and welcoming accommodations for tourists. First of all, SUNNY, the owner of Cody, Wyoming adventures, called us the night before to make sure that she prepared us for the day before and welcomed us. She also made sure that she knew where we wanted to be picked up from, which we chose the Historic Madison hotel. I thought it was very kind of her to introduce herself and chat with me for a bit the night before the tour. Shari was our tour guide, and she was superb! She was very welcoming, enthusiastic, and energetic. She knew a lot of the small details and history about the park, and she was very happy to accommodate for us. She knew how to get us to the most places at the right time to see spectacular views such as Old Faithful. We were able to have lunch as we were waiting to see Old Faithful spring up. Shari helped us to see the most sights and sounds as possible and that would fit our 8 hour tour duration. My very favorite was the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone National Park. All of the views of the park were spectacular, but the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone with its stunning waterfall was my very favorite! 😍 Additionally, this tour provided all of the snacks and water we could ask for and provided a very nice lunch! We have an adult child who was with us and she appreciated the snacks very much, so for those who have young children who get the munchies during tours, that will help you so much if you just happen to not have brought your own. If you are planning to see Yellowstone National Park, and you want to get the best experience, try Cody Wyoming Adventures. You will not be disappointed! 😄❤️

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Appreciate the nice reply. Glad everything went well.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you, glad you had a great time in Yellowstone with Dave.

Making a perfect tour!

Mariliz_O, Jun 2026
This should be done on the first day of your trip. It is comprehensive almost. Covered 75% of Yellowstone Park for a day! Our tour guide driver, Dave was the best, being a native of Yellowstone it seems. Great animal spotter. Great lunch, drinks & snacks galore. Even have binoculars and rain gear just in case. Adjusted our tour with expertise as issues came up (weather, loss of power at the hotel, late tourists, traffic). Became a perfect tour. Thank you, Dave.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you. It takes a lot to run a tour company. Having a guide that can handle issues involved is golden. Dave definitely steps up to the plate. Glad you enjoyed the tour.

Fun tour!

All the Yellowstone Highlights

Emily_I, Jun 2026
This tour hit all the highlights of Yellowstone and we had a great day! Our driver and guide kept things interesting with stories and facts. As a 55+ tour, he was considerate when he dropped us off and picked us up at attractions, avoiding long walks through parking lots. We were happy we chose Cody Tours 55+ and recommend it.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you, glad everything went well on your tour of Yellowstone with us. Safe travels.

Best way to see the park!

Karen_F, Jun 2026
That the tour was worth every penny. We saw a lot of the park while learning about the history of the park! Our tour guy was very friendly and made the tour fun.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you. That’s what is nice about taking a tour. You get the history and get to enjoy the sights without having to drive.

A Majestic Day!!

Lynn_W, Jun 2026
The over 55 tour was the best because everyone moved at the same pace! We loved the smaller 20 person max tour bus and our tour guide, David, was SO knowledgable and a great guide. The views were stunning - the prismatic pools, thermals, Old Faithful, some falls and more and we got stuck in traffic for a black bear, tons of bison and a few elk! It was a majestic day!

Fantastic

Shelly_N, Jun 2026

It was great, saw a lot….unfortunately it rained, there was a lot of people on the van, the windows fogged up.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Glad you enjoyed the tour. Yes it did rain and hailed a lot. Can’t control the weather. Thank you.

Excellant Tour and Shuttle Bus Experience

Bridget_H, Jun 2026
Our tour guide Ken was fantastic - he was very knowledgeable and knew all the good spots. He heard through others about a grizzly bear sighting that was just a little off of our path - all the travelers wanted to go see it, so he made it happen! The minibus was amazing - it was all windows and we were able to open the top towards the end of our trip. Definitely recommend!

Response from Host, Jun 2026

We love reviews like yours. Hope you got some great memories and photos. Thank you.

Interesting stuff, but...

Bruce_W, Jun 2026
I've done other guided tours and a lot of the experience rests squarely on the driver.. The company called our driver, last minute on his day off, and it felt like it. It felt rushed and not well organized. At one point I tripped and fell right in front of our driver, and he didn't even ask me if I was hurt...

Response from Host, Jun 2026

We went out of our way to put you in a vehicle with only 2 other people to make you more comfortable. Sorry you felt rushed . The other couple had a great time and didn’t feel rushed. Safe travels.

Our guide Ken was very...

The wonder of nature we all share.

Carol_G, Jun 2026
Don’t expect to see all species of wildlife in park but enjoy all other aspects of history and the wonder of nature. The guide, Sherry, was excellent in both knowledge of park and consideration of each traveler.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for the nice reply. Glad everything worked out well for you. Safe travels

Terrific Experience

Paul_B, Jun 2026
Wow! What a great tour. Ken our guide was terrific! He offered a wealth of knowledge on Yellowstone. We saw many terrific spots. Well planned restroom stops made the 8 plus hour tour seem rather short. Highly recommend!
