5.00My wife and I had a full day of great sights in Yellowstone National Park delivered by our tour guide- Eddy. His knowledge of the area was beyond everyday common knowledge. He knew the back stories, facts and relayed personal experiences in the park. Eddy helped put the wow in stops at Old Faithful, the Upper and Lower Falls in the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone and the various geysers. The tour added so much more to our time in Yellowstone.

5.00We entered the Park at Gardiner Montana and stayed at the cabins in Canyon Yellowstone. We skipped eating dinner a couple nights due to the eateries closing at 6 pm. During the day we did self tours of the upper and lower Yellowstone Falls after listening to a Park Ranger talk. Short hikes. One day was spent on self guided walking tours of all geysers and mineral pools at Old Faithful after taking in a Park Ranger talk. This adventure was complete with eating a Buffet at the Old Faithful Inn. A must, great food and excellent hospitality. Our last day in the Oark was spent taking in the eateries, ice cream parlors, visitors center and museum in Mammoth Hot Sorings. The Park is busy the month of September too.
Fabulous first day in Yellowstone!

5.00Fabulous day! Eddie, our guide, was wonderful. He is very knowledgeable about the Yellowstone. He is very personable and shared many stories as well. We saw Elk, Bison, and a mama Grizzly and her cub. He had a scope that we used and he took photos and videos of a bison and the Grizzly. We saw lots of steam vents, Old Faithful, mud pots, the chocolate pot, the upper and lower falls of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, the Mud Volcano and the Grand Prismatic Spring. We were given the option to hike 1.8 miles to view the Grand Prismatic or view it from the boardwalk. The 5 in our group voted to hike to the overlook and the view did not disappoint! We ate lunch in a picnic area next to Yellowstone Lake. Prior to the trip, we were able to make our selection of sandwiches for lunch. Water was available any time during the day. Binoculars were also available for all of us. We highly recommend this day trip!
Great choice to tour Yellowstone stress free
