We enjoyed seeing all the wildlife and our guide Kyle was extremely knowledgeable! He is an excellent spotter for finding the joys in the park too! He was so good and kind!

This was a highlight of our family’s trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming. We saw bull moose, elk, bison, mule deer, rams and a bald eagle. Phil was the best guide! He was knowledgeable in both the history of the land and found us 22 moose on our adventure. If we were to ever book anything else from BrushBuck Wildlife Tours, we would want Phil to be our guide. 100% recommend this tour and guide.

We had an amazing time on our full-day wildlife tour in the Tetons and elk refuge. Our guide, Phil, was so considerate, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to; he did an amazing job making sure everyone (adults and kids alike) learned something and had a fun time. We saw plenty of animals, had a great lunch, and did not have to worry about a thing. We had plenty on chances for photos and even had extra sent to us. We’d be happy to attend another experience on a future trip!

Elk don’t come down into the Valley until after the first snows- late December. The ride was fun, informative and cold!

Great time! Kevin and Ally were great! Totally enjoyed hearing the history of the area and animals. We stopped every place the guides spotted animals. We went to lunch at the coolest place and got to know the other guests which is what it’s all about! The horse drawn cart was the low point. Too many people packed into the wagon. Couldn’t move and the elks were a few miles away. Would’ve like to skip that.

WOW — what an unforgettable experience! Our BrushBuck tour with Phil was truly the highlight of our trip. From the moment we started, Phil’s energy, passion, and knowledge of the Grand Tetons made the entire day incredible. We saw so much wildlife — elk, moose, bald eagles, and even mountain goats! Phil knew exactly where to look and made every sighting exciting. He was fun, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having the best time possible. If you’re booking a tour, do yourself a favor and request Phil. He made our adventure absolutely amazing, and we can’t recommend him or BrushBuck Tours enough!

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful wildlife tour with Marcus in the Grand Tetons! Marcus was an awesome and knowledgeable guide and photographer! He took us to see all the major highlights of the park, and was able to see wildlife such as moose, grizzly and black bears (plus their cubs!) and even some coyotes and mountain goats. He provided a wonderful lunch and plenty of photo opportunities. He was also kind to share some of his personal photos of wildlife with us. Highly recommend this tour company! Thank you again! Made for a great experience and a lifetime of memories!
