Kick off your adventure in Salt Lake City and head north toward Wyoming, trading city views for wide-open landscapes, mountain ranges, and classic Western scenery. The road trip vibes start immediately.
Jackson Town Square
Welcome to Jackson, where the Wild West meets mountain chic. Stop at the famous Town Square, home to the iconic elk antler arches—yes, they’re real antlers. Stroll around, snap photos, browse local shops, and soak up the laid-back cowboy-meets-cool-town atmosphere
Grand Teton National Park
Prepare for jaw-dropping views. The Grand Tetons rise sharply from the valley floor, creating one of the most dramatic mountain skylines in the U.S. Enjoy scenic overlooks, crystal-clear lakes, and postcard-worthy photo stops in this stunning national park.

Your first taste of Yellowstone’s geothermal magic. Located along the shores of Yellowstone Lake, West Thumb features bubbling geysers, colorful hot springs, and steaming vents—all with a lakeside backdrop that feels almost unreal.

Enjoyable trip

5.00I would definitely do a trip like this again. It covered 1200 miles and hit all the high spots in the area. Maarten, the guide, kept everything on track and the coach driver was great too. Only two issues, commentary was largely Chinese as that was the majority of people on the tour, as I only speak English I was at a disadvantage. I was looking forward to the Yellostone Bear sanctuary but most of the other attendees were not so it was canceled and I got a refund. Overall my enjoyment of the tour was not greatly affected.

5.00Had a great time and was treated well. Johnny our tour guide was very knowledgeable, good natured and very funny. Johnny made sure that we were able to see all of the “must see” areas of the parks all while navigating the ever changing weather in Yellowstone and Gran Teton. He needs a raise. Herding cats is tough business.
Excellent Job Johnny!!!

5.00Johnny, our tour guide with CTour was lovely. He planned our trip around some difficult weather and was/is kind and considerate to everyone. We thank him for his professionalism.
Good with few caveats

4.00We booked a 3-day Grand Teton & Yellowstone tour, and Maarten was our tour guide. The tour group was quite large (around 55 people), with most guests being Chinese. The itinerary was well planned and covered most of the major attractions in both national parks. The bus was spacious, and there was very little hiking or long walking involved, so my mother (over 60 years old) was able to participate comfortably. However that means you won't be able to visit Jenny Lake (Grand Teton) or view Grand Prismatic / Great Salt Lake from above. The hotel in West Yellowstone was spacious and even provided hot water and coffee in the lounge area. There was also a Chinese restaurant and a convenience store nearby, which was convenient. Our tour guide Mr. Maarten Wu was friendly and always willing to help resolve any requests or concerns during the trip. One thing to keep in mind: since guests were gathered from different booking platforms, there may be additional fees collected during the trip. It’s best to confirm all possible charges in advance before booking.

5.00This was a wonderful tour! Milo the tour guide was very informed and had an excellent rapport with his guests. This trip is strenuous for Seniors, miles and miles of walking and a multitude of stairs, up and down! We made it, but it was exhausting! The problems : (1) The motel that the tour included was sub-standard. The tour company should provide safe, secure hotel arrangements; (2) The Ford Van was completely filled, where customers were crowded and had seats over the wheel well! With the hours and hours of driving, the company should evaluate the comfort of their guests, not ‘more people, more profit’; finally, I strongly recommend informing their prospective customers looking at this tour to advise the nature of this trip, possibly letting Seniors make an informed decision before committing. We had a mother & daughter who, after the initial day, withdrew from the tour because of the strenuous pace.
Awesome experience, Yellowstone and Grand Teton tour...

5.00My wife and I had an excellent experience, and the places are breathtaking. The tour was well organized, and our tour guide was Xin Xu, who was nice and friendly and drove us and guided us to all the beautiful places. He also has a very good authentic Chinese restaurant, and we really enjoyed the food. Hotel accommodation was also decent, and we enjoyed our stay. Overall, highly recommended.

5.00Its very good value for money. You go to a lot of beautiful and interesting places on the way to and from Yellowstone. You also get to see a lot of the park itself. The whole trip was well organised and it takes the stress out of doing it yourself.
This was an all-Chinese...
Carol S,Sep 14, 2025
- Review from Viator
3.00This was an all-Chinese group tour who made the reservations through a Chinese company. It was not made clear upfront that this is what would be. All travellers, and the guide, spoke English, but limited. The guide gave only minimal descriptions of the sites in English. We ourselves speak only English! Fortunately our fellow travelers were helpful and we were able to speak to them. Also the guide added stops to the tour. The stops were worthwhile, but the schedule ran late and there wasn’t much time to get food. The guide attended to us when we stopped, and he was always courteous. One thing was that he drove too fast in many places. That did not feel safe. I did share that concern with him once or twice, and definitely when we said goodbye at the end of our tour. The guide was clearly familiar with all the sites. I think the tour operator should work with the driver (he knows the sites and locations!) so that the tour on the website is the one we actually do.
Watch out for this tour

1.00It's a hoax. You hire a tour in English, and you are assured that there will be a maximum of 4 people (I have several conversations with the Viator agents about it), and when the time comes you are put on a bus with 52 Chinese (with a different program) and a Chinese guide to do a bilingual Chinese-English tour. They tell you from Viator that you will be picked up at 6:30, reconfirming you until the last minute but the guide tells you that he will pick you up at 7:40. Finally you leave at 8 and lose 1.5h of being able to see things in Yellowstone. The hotels were the most basic of all. Quite a mess from start to finish. I'll never hire Viator again for any tour.
