Itinerary

1

The full-day Grand Teton National Park tour will begin close to sunrise to maximize the hours of the day when wildlife is most active. Your naturalist guide will seek out wildlife hotspots, often off the beaten path on unmarked dirt roads in our comfortable 4wheel drive safari vehicles. Make use of our Swarovski spotting scopes and binoculars to view the daily habits of local fauna, including moose, elk, bison, pronghorn antelope, mule deer, wolves, black bears, grizzly bears, bald eagles, and trumpeter swans. After a morning session of uninterrupted wildlife observation, we’ll enjoy a picnic lunch, then we’ll continue to explore the natural landscape of the park and if desired by the group, we’ll embark on a short walk, along easy terrain, to observe the smaller wonders of this park. Make sure to pick your expert guide’s brain on topics like animal behavior, animal adaptations, the geology of the area, local botany, and the cultural history of this special place.

It’ll be worth it. Book it.

This was an absolutely great experience. Sarah E. was our guide and she gets a 10/10 for what she brought to the experience. The tour vehicle (Ford Expedition w/ 2 roof hatches) was a great ride and well maintained. The snacks, coffee, lunch and drinks were great. We were able to see bison, elk, pronghorn, moose, and a coyote. It was such a great time and I highly recommend this tour. It’s pricy but it’s still a blast. If you can, request Sarah, she was truly awesome.

Wonders unveiled

Holy cow what an amazing day! Lucas was my guide and was absolutely spectacular. Tailored the trip to exactly what I wanted. Went on a hike, learned about the history of Jackson, did some burning, saw moose & elk buck super close... amazing, unforgettable day. Couldn't have been happier with the tour.

8-hour private photography tour

We had a great time on a private, 8-hour private photo tour with Nick. I'm an experienced photographer, but there's nothing like having local expertise to help with finding wildlife and great landscape compositions. Nick was continuously linked with other guides in the region, so he had always had the latest of what animals were being seen in what locations. The highlight was seeing plenty of grizzlies, many times in places with very few other people. We never would have found them on our own. He had great expertise, really customized the tour for what we wanted, and was overall just a great guy to spend the day with. A private tour isn't cheap, but it's a great experience. Highly recommended.

Best First Yellowstone Experience

We spent the day on a private tour with Sage in Yellowstone. 10/10 would recommend a trip with Sage, he was knowledgeable, funny and patient with our group. We saw a bear, moose, elk and bison. Best experience I could have asked for as a first trip.
