What our customers say
This is the gold standard of tours. [Our guide knew] the ins and outs of the park and all of the history. While on the trip we were able to identify the alpha female wolf of a specific pack in the park. There’s so much more… and lunch was amazing too. Great customer service, great guide.
This was the best tour of my life. Packed full of adventure with wolf packs, bison herds, grizzlies, pronghorn, and many more sightings. Our guide, Elijah, kept us comfortable and provided tons of information about the wildlife and geological features while showing us insider parts of the park that visitors are generally unaware of.
Frank was our guide for our wildlife tour, and he is amazing! We learned so much from him and saw so many different animals, including a pack of wolves, a golden eagle, mountain goats, antelope, and both grizzly and black bears.
