5.00We had the best time! We had 4 of us in our private group. The van was very spacious, was filled with snacks and drinks for us to have all day long. Rose was our tour guide and she was AMAZING! She was extremely knowledgeable about the animals, and the environment we were exploring. She explained everything very well, was very well spoken, and made sure we had the best experience possible. We will definitely be back! Thank you Rose and Obsidian Tours!!!

5.00This was an outstanding full day tour of the Upper Loop of Yellowstone. Our tour guide, Rose, was very knowledgeable and personable, which was great since we spent all day together. She provided binoculars and brought her own scope, which ensured we could see all the wildlife up close. Since the tour was just with our family, it allowed for flexible decisions to be made throughout the day during our stops. Lunch, snacks, and drinks are also included. I would highly recommend this tour!
