Clar our tour guide was passionate about the park and knew exactly where to go to spot all the wildlife. We saw a pack of wolves, long horn sheep, bears, eagles nest, swans, elk! A deep understanding of the park and its ecosystem was awesome. We also got to meet Rick McIntyre what an honor

I've met very few tour guides as knowledge, engaging, and worthy as Tin Bindi was. She elevated our Yellowstone two-fold. If you want to see true wildlife, get an in-depth education about Yellowstone and just have an amazing day, you must book this tour. It made our Yellowstone trip special.

Jake our guide was a most wonderful host for our day out in the upper loop of Yellowstone. He was very knowledgeable and as a professional photographer gave us insight in how to capture our visit in a way that makes reviewing our photos such a joy. I would highly recommend this trip for anyone coming to the park. Especially for first timers.
