Today we'll be touring Yellowstone's upper, or northern loop, including visiting the best location in the lower 48 states to see wildlife! There are frequent stops along the way!
Starting in West Yellowstone, we'll travel along the Grand Loop Road until we get to Canyon Village, where we'll head north, climbing up Dunraven Pass towards Mount Washburn. The tour passes through good grizzly bear terrain before stopping at Tower Falls. The Lamar Valley, Yellowstone's prime area for wildlife viewing, is the next major destination, followed by Mammoth Hot Springs. There is almost always an elk herd to be seen at Mammoth, along with the famous terraces and historic Fort Yellowstone.
Roaring Mountain is on the way to Norris Geyser Basin, which is made up of two separate geyser basins and includes the world's highest active geyser.
Time permitting, other locations at which we may stop include Calcite Springs, Undine Falls, and Obsidian Cliff.

This was an unforgettable experience!! My daughter and I made so many memories today!! Steve was absolutely amazing!! He knew so much about the park- history, geology, and wildlife! He worked tirelessly to find all the best spots to see wildlife and customized the trip to accommodate everyone’s wishes. Lunch was fabulous- we ate by a beautiful stream with a resting bison on the other side. This was amazing- I would tell anyone to definitely book this experience!! It was worth every penny and more!!
