Dan was our tour guide. He has a wealth of knowledge and clearly loves his job. He took us to all of the major spots. Dan timed our arrival to see Old Faithful erupt. This tour included lunch and they had binoculars and umbrellas for us to use. We were able to see bison and a gray wolf. Highly recommend this tour.

We had an amazing adventure and saw the best sights. Dan Wilson was the best tour person, his love of nature, we left with a whole new outlook on our beautiful land. We had several laughs and memories we will never forget. We will be talking about our adventure with Dan the man for many years to come! Can't thank him enough!

I can’t say enough good things about Joe and the amazing Yellowstone tour he gave us. From the moment we started, Joe’s energy and passion for the park were contagious. He wasn’t just knowledgeable about the history, geology, and wildlife, he made the experience fun and engaging, weaving in stories and little details that you’d never get from just reading a guidebook. What stood out the most was how attentive and thoughtful Joe was throughout the trip. He made sure everyone was comfortable, answered every question with patience, and even tailored the stops to what our group was most interested in seeing. Whether it was pointing out a hidden spot for the best view, spotting wildlife before anyone else noticed, or giving us fun facts that brought the park’s history to life, Joe went above and beyond to make sure we had a memorable experience. Yellowstone is breathtaking on its own, but Joe truly made the tour unforgettable. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, friendly, and genuinely loves what they do, I highly recommend Joe. He turned a beautiful trip into an extraordinary adventure.

Our guide Eddie takes good care of us and very knowledgeable to the Grant Teton and Yellowstone park. We saw everything of the lower loop and it was just breath-taking. It was a long day but definitely worth it.

Yellowstone South tour.

Lonita_F, Sept 2026
A tour no matter what the description, depends on the guide. Shane is probably the best we have encountered. He was knowledgeable, entertaining, and extremely attentive to the entire group's needs. Shane was open to suggested stops and many viewing opportunities. He shared fun stories and encouraged the group to do so. It was a great tour and a glorious day!

Deborah_M, Sept 2026
If your time at Yellowstone is limited, this tour gives a great overview and it's so convenient not to look for parking!! Our guide, Eddie, was fantastic. He was so knowledgeable and friendly that it enhanced the whole experience.

Best tour!

Karen_D, Sept 2026
That it was fascinating Tripp. Our trip leader was so knowledgeable and explained everything to us. From the animals that we would see or maybe not see. Lol To the trees. The chemistry of the land. We had a delicious lunch on a picnic table. We just had so much fun. Nice small group. It was great. We were very comfortable in the van. We had appropriate bathroom stops. Yellowstone is such a beautiful area and they did a good job of showing us all the different places. Old Faithful was really fun to watch. Yellowstone is a fascinating place!

10/10 would recommend booking this tour! Our tour guide, Shane, was awesome! He was very knowledgeable about the park, shared so many interesting facts and stories throughout the tour.

Be prepared it’s a long day but worth the experience. The sites we stopped at were great and our guide new his stuff.

Excellent tour and tour company!

Gwendolyn_B, Sept 2026
Excellent tour and tour company! This was my 2nd tour with them. For this tour we had Daniel as our guide and he was super! I highly recommend this company and this specific tour. The communication with the company was well done; they confirmed my pick-up time and everything was timely, simple, and very well enjoyed. We had ample time to see everything and Daniel kept an eagle eye out for wildlife so we got to see everything that was out and about too.

Great American scenery

Ed_G, Sept 2026
Went to spectacular areas not previously seen. The Yellowstone park is a wonderful place to visit. It's a great place to visit. Highly underrated.

What a day!!! Shane’s the best!

Highly recommended

Raymond_G, Sept 2026
Our guide Andy was friendly and very knowledgeable. We got to see all the high points of the lower loop in Yellowstone. The lunch was extremely good.

Yellowstone lower loop

TODD_B, Sept 2026
This was a 12 hour + day. Well worth the time and it checks all the boxes of “must see and must do” on the lower loop. Our guide, Andy, from Teton Floats was a wealth of information and the tour very enjoyable for everyone. Would highly recommend.

Best experience ever with...

gayathri_V, Sept 2026
Best experience ever with Dan. He is simply awesome in all ways: extremely knowledgeable, personable, professional, caring and has excellent communication skills with clarity and depth. Will take another tour with him or recommend him in a heartbeat.

A Must Do For Yellowstone Newbies

Ashley_G, Sept 2026
Our guide, Shane, was excellent. He had a great personality and was knowledgeable about Yellowstone, animals, and geology. We saw plenty of bison. The lunch was also good portion.

You will love it!

Susan_K, Sept 2026
Don't hesitate or overthink, this is the trip to take. Yes it's a long day but, you see all the highlights and Andy knows how to time it so your day is action packed and right on time for Old Faithful! Andy was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. He spotted wildlife so quickly and had the most amazing telescope hooked up to his phone, he could even share these pics with you. Fantastic job!! We had a small group and everyone really enjoyed each other. Thanks for taking our pictures Andy!

Yellowstone is wonderful even on a rainy day!

Best way to see Yellowstone

RaymondM_M, Sept 2026
It was a great tour. Much more relaxing than trying to see Yellowstone on our own. Joe was a great tour guide.

Yellowstone: make it happen!

Robert_B, Aug 2026
I am one that almost always will save the money and go it alone- - - old school. We decided to bite the bullet and sign up: My wife and I absolutely agree the money spent was a great investment. Our guide, Joe Byrnes was very knowledgeable as far as the history, geology, animals and the area. Very personable, considerate and aware of what was needed. Great guy and provided us all with a day to remember!

Shane was the best! Book this tour, absolutely gorgeous.

Madison_O, Aug 2026
Shane was an absolutely amazing guide. He was so friendly, gave many educational talks, made sure we were all well accommodated and comfortable, and stopped for us to have rest stops, and souvenir shop. Couldn’t recommend him more. Thank you Shane!

A must do tour!

Debbie_N, Aug 2026
We had a great time on this tour! Our guide, David, was excellent! He was very knowledgeable about everything Teton and Yellowstone. We made stops at all of the prime spots in Yellowstone including Old Faithful, Grand Prismatic, other hot springs some waterfalls, Lake Yellowstone, and the famous Yellowstone sign. We had bison crossing the road on our drive back and even saw a bear crossing the road. I highly recommend this trip and I highly recommend David!

Fantastic

Roxann_L, Aug 2026
We had a fantastic guide, David. He was very knowledgeable about everything! He picked us up at our lodge and returned us back there- making it easy for travelers. We had spectacular views of the hot springs, canyons, water falls and old faithful. We were in and out of a van at each stop. There was walking up inclines, but not too bad. It was a long day , about 11 hours total- from pick up to drop off, but well worth it! By far the best part of our trip. I would highly recommend this trip!!!

Great Full Day of Yellowstone

James_I, Aug 2026
Great tour of the South loop of Yellowstone with Daniel. He kept the trip fun and has a deep knowledge of the park

Great trip.

Michelle_Z, Aug 2026
The tour is as promised. Very reliable. Very thorough. Great guide. Picked up at hotel. Highly recommend. We were a family of 4 with 2 kids, ages 8 and 10. I would not suggest any ages younger than that just because it is a long day and attention spans are naturally somewhat limited at that age range. But the tour and the trip was excellent. We saw many sights in the most efficient way possible.

A full, productive day

Mike_T, Aug 2026
We took the Yellowstone Lower Loop Full day tour this week. Joe was a hard working guide - the tour lasted 12 hours - so you definitely felt like you got your money’s worth! The geothermal sites (Old Faithful and Grand Prismatic) were nice, we loved the waterfalls at the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, and saw a large herd of Bison. A few photos included. We would recommend this company to future guests.

Amazing tour w/ amazing tour guide!!

Karl_S, Aug 2026
Shane was awesome!! He was a great travel Guide, made the trip so much fun and was very knowledgeable. Highly recommend him!!
