Teton Park Must Do - This was a fantastic experience! My wife's number 1 goal for our trip was to see wildlife up close and personal. I chose the Jackson Hole Wildlife Safari Company, and booked a private tour, boy did they come through for me!! We were scheduled for a 630am pickup at our lodging, and our guide, Lee, was there waiting for us at 625am. We hadn't gotten 200 yards into the Grand Teton National Park when Lee said, "We've got a Moose and her calf", I thought he was joking, because I didn't see anything in the field. That's because the Moose and her calf were standing next to our vehicle, just out of arms reach. Neither animal acknowledged our existence. It was perfect. On our safari we saw Moose, a Bison herd, a Pronghorn herd, a Bull Elk, Mule Deer, Great Blue Heron, Pelican, Osprey, Hawks, and a Falcon. All up close and personal just as my wife requested! Our guide, Lee, asked us a few questions before we started and then began telling us the story of the Teton's. His story was so enthralling, halfway through we didn't realize we had driven through many stretches of the park that had no wildlife. Instead of being the boring part, we started looking forward to them so we could find out how the story ended. And you will be pleasantly surprised how the story ends. The private tour is more expensive, but in my opinion it's worth every dime and more. If you book a private tour, and I suggest you do, ask for Lee from Teton Village, you won't want the story to end.

Go on safari - Great introduction to the park with expert guidance by Barry W. Would recommend highly for any age group. You will not regret this trip. Go early in your stay to get the lay of the land.
