It was a combination of wildlife spottings, amazing views, area history, and many photo ops. All of us ( adults and children) enjoyed the experience tremendously. Our tour guide Jesse was the BEST!

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you very much for sharing your tour experience with Mike, it means alot to know that our guests have the best possible experience, we hope next time you are in the area you think of National Park Tours by The Driver Provider for another Tour.

Mike was the best tour...

Peter_T, Dec 2025
Mike was the best tour guide we could have asked for. We saw every wildlife we wanted to, including hundreds of bison (not buffalo- Mike taught us the correct terminology). Most importantly, he was an amazing driver. We did our tour on a day with a blizzard and he was able to navigate the icy roads very safe safely.

He also taught me the correct name of those amazing animals.

Tetons Tour

Great experience! The day really depends on the weather and which animals are out, but Jesse made sure we saw all the key sights and spotted the wildlife that was active.

The Jackson Hole experience

Best guide ever

Justin_B, Nov 2025
Jesse was an absolutely incredible guide. He was prompt and tailored our experience perfectly to our expectations. Very friendly guy who is super knowledgeable and we left feeling like we connected to the area while learning so much. Highly highly recommend!

Best Half Day

John_C, Sep 2025
Our guide and driver, Jesse O’Connor, could not have been better. He was professional, friendly, flexible and, most importantly, a wealth of knowledge about where we went and what we saw. He gave us the perfect highlights tour, taking us places where the tour buses miss to see spectacular scenery as well as historical places. He even came equipped with binoculars and a spotter scope, which turned out to be quite useful when spotting wild animals, which we did. If you are looking for a tour to see and get acquainted with the special and spectacular sights in and around the Tetons as well as having a guide who tailors both the tour and information to his guests, this tour and Jesse are the best. Our only regret is that we did not spend the entire day with him. He is that good.

Jessie is an awesome tour guide!

Maureen_F, Sep 2025
Jessie is an enthusiastic, knowledgeable guide! We recommend him highly!!! The entire tour was amazing!

Jessy is a great guide, knowledgeable, accommodating and entertaining. The whole family (ages 4 to 78) enjoyed the tour and appreaciated the amount of detail Jessy provided. Highly recommended!

Viator needs better communication with Guides

Jane_S, Aug 2025
The guide, Benji, was very pleasant and knowledgeable. However, Viator gave him an incorrect cell number for me, the person who booked the trip, and our family of 10 did not know where or when he arrived in the parking lot to pick us up for a private 1/2 day tour of Grand Teton. Secondly, the itinerary Viator publishes on the website was not given to him. When I showed Benji the list of places we were supposed to see, one was a 10 mile drive out on a dirt road and not a special site. I give it 4 stars because of our guide, but I would give Viator 2 stars!

A Perfect Day in every way

John_s, Aug 2025
Our guide, Mike Spotts was outstanding, second only to the scenery. his knowledge of the park and the wildlife made the tour unforgettable. he knew hidden roads to find the wildlife. his book is a must buy.

Amazing guide and scenery

STEVE_R, Jan 2025
Mike was an excellent guide. We had an amazing experience with the sheep up close and personal. He took us to walk out on a frozen lake. We seen a bald eagle seating on a phone pole. He was very knowledgable about the area and animals. His son is a excellent photographer and we went down to the camera store in town and met him after the tour.

Wonderful experience

Amazing private tour

Anonymous, Dec 2024
This was absolutely the most amazing experience that I have ever done. It is well worth the money! Truly appreciate Michael and his private tour which took me and my daughter to beautiful areas where we were up and close with the wildlife. No other tour will give you this experience. Very blessed and grateful for this experience!

The Perfect Day

Denise_B, Jun 2024
Our tour guides went above and beyond! They scouted the area earlier that morning to see where the wildlife was hanging out. We even did a little off-roading and located the Teton NP heard of Bison. There were at least 10 babies, affectionally called "red dogs". The stops at Mouton Barn and Jenny Lake were spectacular. Our tour guides were extremely knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Highly recommend!!
