- Grand Prismatic Spring - The Grand Prismatic is a must-see for any Yellowstone visitor. This is Mother Nature at her finest. The Grand Prismatic has captivated millions of visitors from around the globe. Not only is it one of the most breathtaking sites on Earth, but it also plays a role in significant scientific discoveries. The thermophiles of the Grand Prismatic are not only stunning and colorful but are also used in medical resources worldwide. The beautiful “bacteria” is a must-see on your Yellowstone vacation!
- Firehole Canyon Drive - Explore this picturesque area of Yellowstone, home to the beautiful Firehole Falls. Dip your feet into the Firehole River in this stunning locale while anglers fish for native Cutthroat trout.
- Fountain Paint Pot - The Fountain Paint Pots is definitely one of my personal favorites. This incredible geyser basin features many types of geothermal attractions all in one place.

Old Faithful has inspired visitors to Yellowstone for hundreds of years.

Wonderful day in Yellowstone - Sherri was an amazing tour guide! She was very knowledgeable and shared so much information throughout the tour. We saw so many beautiful spots throughout Yellowstone as well as some wildlife.
The only part of the trip that was not perfect, was that there was some confusion for several groups on our tour with the pick up times listed online and the actual pick up times.

Worth Every Penny!!! - What a great way to see Yellowstone! We didn't have to worry about driving or parking! Sandy always got us in to see the sights, whether a bear along the road, or a beautiful scenic feature. We kept a good pace, but never felt rushed. She was very knowledgeable about park history, the various landmarks, and the wildlife. (Including where they are most likely to be found, and why. She was very considerate of guests who had minor physical limitations.
She was fun, an excellent driver, and good at enforcing park rules and helping others to do so, and telling them why. (We were amazed at how many people got way too close to the wild animals, even families with children!)
Also, when I contacted the office, they were always, courteous and extra helpful! Great customer service all the way around!

Book this tour for an outstanding experience! - This trip was the BEST way to see Yellowstone. We avoided the traffic and enjoyed the park so much more with Sandra’s detailed explanations about the sites. Also, Sandra was an excellent driver and guide. The tour size was perfect. My only improvement would be to add “USB ports” and “snacks” instead to the list of amenities. And change “lunch” to “lunch stops” in the amenities list. We were all so very glad we went.

This tour was amazing and... - This tour was amazing and Shari was THE best guide. We chose this tour as an intro day to the park and it did not disappoint. Shari showed us the big hotspots but was so knowledgeable and told us about the rest of the park and gave great suggestions for the rest of our vacation. We saw amazing wildlife and my kids are still repeating the facts and stories Shari shared with us. Excellent memories, highly recommend.

Great Tour of an Amazing Park - The tour was great and focused on the key spots to visit along the lower loop of the park. Our guide, Phoebe, was extremely familiar with the park and made adjustments to get to the most popular spots before the crowds. Yellowstone is an amazing place.
