Top Highlights

  • JacksonNine days through the Tetons and Yellowstone — the first national park anywhere, and the valley where wolves were put back.
  • Jenny LakeThe Tetons rise about two thousand metres straight off the valley floor with no foothills at all — the fault runs along their base.
  • Mormon RowOxbow Bend at dawn is the photograph everyone takes and it is still worth taking.
  • Old FaithfulThe Upper Geyser Basin holds about a quarter of all the geysers on earth in two square kilometres.
  • Grand PrismaticFrom the boardwalk it is steam; from the overlook trail it is the colours.
  • Lamar ValleyLamar is where the wolves are, and where the bison herds are largest.
  • Wolf packsWolves were reintroduced in 1995 after seventy years absent, and watching them is done at distance through a scope.
  • Lower FallsArtist Point over the Lower Falls is the view Thomas Moran painted, and the paintings are part of why Congress created the park in 1872.

Excellent sightings and the guides clearly knew the area. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Crew were professional without being stiff about it. Good value for what's included.

Sightings were thin on our dates, which is luck, but the drives felt rushed.

Excellent sightings and the guides clearly knew the area. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude.
