    We enjoyed all the parks, my favorite part was the scenic route down the snake River on the raft. Our little guard was very informative and a delight as he gave us the details. It was a great disappointment that we did not get to go to Yellowstone park, but we know that could not be helped. We do appreciate the fact that Ann our guide was able to find us alternative parts to go to.

      Flights are not included, but we can help you with flights. For the standard tour you fly into PHX Phoenix and out of RAP Rapid City, on some dates an extension to DEN Denver is available.
