Beary Terrific Tour - With Brian as our guide we had an amazing and delightful day touring Yellowstone. His knowledge, personality, patience and perseverance made for a memorable experience. The sights are breathtaking, the waterfalls magical and the animals wildly entertaining. We were 6 seniors, ages 67 - 80 sharing a "bucket list" trip to Yellowstone, Mt Rushmore, Custer State Park and The Badlands. Hands down, the best tour of our 3 week trip Out West! Perfect ending...as we were leaving the park we saw a bear. No need for binoculars, just that close. Ambling along, minding his business and scouting the tree line on the other side of the field.

Go to Yellowstone!....and make sure you have a great guide like ours - Scott was amazing - This was a fantastic tour and a large part of the awesomeness was our guide Scott. Yellowstone is a must do but you need to do it with a guide like Scott. We learned so much more because we didn't know all the questions we should ask but he filled in facts along the way that allowed us to ask and learn so much more than we ever imagined. We saw so many unbelievable views and we walked away with such a bigger appreciation for this park with Scott's help. Can't say enough nice things about this park and our guide.

Five Star Review! - This was our first time visiting Yellowstone. Searching online, we decided to book a private tour with “Tied to Nature” on Thursday. Brian picked us up early in the morning at our hotel for the southern loop tour. On our drive up from Jackson Hole to our hotel in Island Park on Wednesday, we had already stopped at “Old Faithful”. Upon hearing this and knowing we would also be spending Friday in the park, Brian asked if we would like to pivot our tour from the full southern loop tour. It was so cool how flexible Brian was with our tour and how enthusiastic he was in helping us see everything we wanted to see! Brian had professional binoculars available and a scope with the iPhone attachment which allowed the wildlife video he had taken on our tour to be easily airdropped to our phone. We were able to see a great grey owl perched in a tree, bison meandering across the road, young swans gliding across the water, to name a few. Brian was very knowledgeable and hospitable, providing snacks and a delicious bag lunch from a local restaurant with selections made prior to the tour. Brian was helpful in planning the stops we would make on our own on Friday. Brian gave us very specific directions on where and when to go for the best opportunity to see some wolves! We followed his advice and were able to see the wolves in the Lamar Valley! Amazing! Brian was the perfect guide! We give this tour our highest recommendation!

First timers on Southern Loop - We are two retired couples on our first trip to Yellowstone and chose Tied To Nature to show us the southern loop. Our guide, Steve, was on time to pick us up and shared tons of sights and information throughout the day. We saw numerous geo-thermals, male bison, several female herds, elk, and other wildlife. Of course, Steve guided us to best viewing of Old faithful and Grand Prismatic. The day was smooth, worry-free, filled with insightful information and of course sights like nowhere else. We are pleased with every aspect of the tour and will choose Tied to Nature again.

Best Tour and Guide - Our guide was Levi. We visited Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. Grand Prismatic and Old Faithful just to name a few spots. Levi was outstanding! He knew all the best places to stop and timed our stops perfectly. He stayed with us and shared stories about the area we were visiting. His knowledge of the park was outstanding. He was also our photographer at times. Best decision we made on this trip was to book this tour.

Gorgeous August day out in Yellowstone - Having never been to Yellowstone we wanted a private tour that we could customize to see what we wished and neither one of us had to drive. We lucked out as our guide, John, was so knowledgeable about the park and he was happy to show us all the gorgeous scenery. John was determined to find us loads of wildlife. We saw Bison, Elk and even a Mama Grizzly with three cubs! We won't forget waiting in what John called the Bear Jam for the Grizzly to move so we could get a good picture of her. So happy that we chose Tied to Nature for our tour, it surpassed all our expectations.

Fantastic private tour - Our guide was Brian and he was excellent. It's a PRIVATE tour so YOU get to decide where you'd like to go and see. Brian was very accommodating and shared a lot of great information about the sites we visited. We highly recommend this tour early in your Yellowstone trip so you know the best sights to visit!
