What people love about touring Yellowstone National Park solo
- 5 Days Yellowstone and Grand Tetons National Park Adventure
We experienced more of Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons with this tour, than we would have on our own. We enjoyed meeting new people, seeing all the sights, and not having to worry about driving and directions. Be prepared to do a lot of walking/hiking - but it is worth it!
- Yellowstone / Grand Teton 4 Day / 3 Night Wildlife Adventure
This trip was fantastic! The group totaled 4 plus the guide Cade. We were not disappointed in wildlife viewing. We saw Black wolves, elk, big horn sheep and bison were up close and personal. Cade is an excellent guide and the trip would not have been the same without him. Cade knows both Teton and Yellowstone National parks like the back of his hand. He answers all questions and is an easy person to be around. Did I mention black bears, moose, Old Faithful and more. Fantastic trip! For birders, the bald eagle feasting on carcass and several other raptors. But, communication from Brushbuck is only when necessary for them. Don't let it stop you though. Hotels were luxe and transportation too. Loved it!
- 8 Day Grand Teton & Yellowstone Explorer
Phil and Traci were more than helpful, understanding of my needs. Phil is well versed in knowledge and history of the area. He made the moments of the trip interesting.
