• 4Grand Teton

  The weather was not on our side so seeing the Tetons was not happening but our guide Shane did his best to give us a quality experience we did see several Moose which was a super cool experience.

• 5BEST Way to Experience Yellowstone if short on time

  5/5 Stars — An unforgettable day in Yellowstone! We recently took a guided tour of the lower loop with TIM, he completely made our trip. From the moment he picked us up, his energy, deep knowledge, and passion for the ecosystem were obvious. Instead of stressing over park traffic and finding parking, we got to sit back and take in the views. Tim knew all the best stops, timed our light hikes/walks to miss the worst of the crowds, and had binoculars for each of us to actually see bison groups up close. We also stopped to see bison, elk, and swans up close. He tailored the day to what our group wanted to see, shared great stories and history, and kept everyone comfortable and well-fed with a great lunch. If you are visiting Yellowstone, skip the headache of driving yourself and book a tour with Yellowstone Hiking Tours —it was worth every penny!

• 5Highlight of our time in Yellowstone

  Amazing tour of Yellowstone. The van is very comfortable with large viewing windows. Our guide, Conor, was very personable and informative. This tour was the highlight of our time in Yellowstone. I highly recommend leaving the driving to a professional.

About West Yellowstone

West Yellowstone is a small Montana town at the west entrance to Yellowstone National Park, ringed by forested mountain country and rivers.

West Yellowstone sits at about 2,000 metres on the Montana side of the Idaho border, right at the west entrance to Yellowstone National Park. Its streets of log-fronted shops, motels and restaurants serve the park, and a museum in the old railway depot tells how early visitors arrived by train. A wildlife centre cares for grizzly bears and wolves that cannot be returned to the wild.
