In late Winter Yellowstone starts to comes to life as the temperature gets slightly warmer, the snow starts to melt, grizzly bears start to wake up from a long hibernation. March in Yellowstone is the best time of the season to view the parks population of grizzly bears fighting against wolves for dominance of food resources and attempt to take over the landscape.

Lamar Valley
The Lamar Valley of Yellowstone National Park is world renowned for the wildlife that congregates here. It is often refeered to "The Serengeti of Yellowstone." The Lamar Valley is currently the best place to spot wild wolves in the United States. This is the exact location where biologists from National Park Service released the first wolf pack to walk in Yellowstone since the early 1900's. Not only can we see wolves here but we will see large bison and elk herds grazing in this famous valley.
Mammoth Hot Springs
We will explore the board walks surrounding Mammoth Hot Springs. Mammoth Hot Springs is a very large thermal feature sitting over a large deposit of limestone. The super heated water from the volcano underneath Yellowstone is dissolving the limestone a redepositing it to the surface as travertine limestone causing turquoise pools and unusual terraces.

James did a great job telling us about the terrain and history of Yellowstone. He knew seeing the animals was a priority for us and he did not disappoint, we saw almost everything on our list and James even took some photos for us. We could have never found or seen these animals on our own - I highly recommend this Yellowstone Safari ❤️👍🏼

Andrea was fantastic. He went above and beyond making sure we saw the very best Yellowstone has to offer. We managed to witness the varieties of wildlife along with the jaw-dropping scenery. No question went unanswered, and we truly got to witness more than we would have journeying on our own behalf. 11 out of 10 recommend Andrea as a guide, and will surely be returning in the near future!

Our family watched the wolf packs with Andrea on March 1, 2025 in Yellowstone. We had such a wonderful day and although we’ve lived in Bozeman since 2012 we have never seen Yellowstone or the wolves like this before! I highly recommend this tour to anyone that loves nature and animals. Andrea does such a fabulous job and he’s so kind and fun! Our three teenagers had the best day exploring and wolf watching with Andrea. We also really enjoyed the short hikes and the lunch was delicious!!

This is the second time we’ve used Yellowstone Adventure Tours, once in the summer and this time a winter tour. I’ve been beyond impressed both times The guides are extremely knowledgeable and know just where to go. (Even though wildlife is unpredictable) For our winter tour, Andrea was our guide. He has a great personality and is fun to be around. Which makes a world of difference! His knowledge and expertise was impressive and my teenager enjoyed soaking everything in. The lunch was very good, so much better than just a basic sandwich. They also supply you with everything you could need for the day. They really are top notch.

I’ve been on guided tours in Yellowstone with several different companies now, and this one is by far the best. They go above and beyond to get you to the best locations & spots to view wildlife. I have been on 2 guided tours now with Andrea Baratte experiencing / photographing various wildlife & wolves. He’s extremely courteous & professional! Very knowledgeable, friendly and a fantastic overall guide. If you’re interested in having a truly wonderful Yellowstone wildlife experience in the park, definitely book a tour with these folks!

Andrea was an incredible guide! He is so knowledgeable about the entire region. We visited in November and would have never seen so much without his assistance. Immediately when we drove into the gate he spotted coyotes. From there we saw antelope, deer, elk, bison and rams. Even a very complacent moose. The best part was when he took us to an isolated overlook for my fiancé to propose. He fed us a delicious lunch. Then the finale was when we found the Mollie’s wolf pack trying to take down one of the bison. We will definitely be back in another season to see all the creatures that were sleeping this time!
