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 tour of most of the lower loop highlights! Dave was our guide and he was very knowledgeable and made it a fun day.

    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
    Pace yourself! This trip if full of great adventures & information. It definitely is the best way to see everything. Pace yoursrlf & enjoy!

    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!

    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.

    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!

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    Ken is the best. Glad everything went well. Thank you.

    Outstanding

    Lynn_G, Jun 2026

    A Amazing must do Experience

    peggy_s, Jun 2026
    Our day was spent seeing the so many places you'd probably never found on your own, besides all the week know spots. We can say enough good things about Mike! He was Awesome. So engaging and friendly and entertaining, he made the day better! Highly recommend this tour, you won't be disappointed.

    Great Yellowstone Experience!

    James_B, May 2026
    We are spending two weeks at Yellowstone, and this was a great way, at the start of our stay, to get an overview of this massive and beautiful park. I couldn’t believe how much we saw and did in just one day! Our driver, Dave, was great. He was both entertaining and informative, and made the experience even better! I highly recommend this tour for others who are looking for an overview like we were. For those who only have a short time to visit, I would say that it’s almost an essential.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Thank you for writing a nice review. We do our best to make everyone’s tour enjoyable and memorable. Safe travels.

    John and Rose Roth's review of our 55 and older tour with Phoebe

    John_R, May 2026
    We had Phoebe as our tour guide. She made sure everyone could hear her well and that the van was comfortable. She had good snacks and plenty of water and knew where important stops like flushing toilets were. She has a good knowledge of Yellowstone National Park, clearly loves it and was enthusiast to share her knowledge about some of the historical information as well as the wonderment of the park itself. At one point in the tour she asked if we wanted to continue seeing geysers or look at wildlife. We all wanted to see wildlife, especially a grizzly and she did not disappoint us in finding a grizzly in one of the prime bear locations! The grand finale of the tour was the waterfall called the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. We actually went back a few days later and saw it again. It's a really nice to take a tour and leave the driving to someone else.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    TravisK_R, May 2026
    In Yellowstone for our first time so we decided to book through this company to make sure we got to see all the places we wanted to visit. Our guide was the Best, not sure we could have had anyone that would have made the trip more enjoyable. Very knowledgeable and kept us in stitches the whole day. He kept it real and made it fun. He was very attentive and gave us plenty of time to enjoy every stop. There was No Rush or hurry. Great choice and I would recommend this to any first timers in the Park. Thanks Turbo Mike for an Excellent Day!

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Thank you for the nice reply. Yes Mike is a character with lots of knowledge. Safe travels.
